I Don't Know What to Do

I feel stuck. I feel like I’m going nowhere. I’m trying to change things about my life but I’m not making much progress. I absolutely despise my job. I cry before I go, cry when I get there, and cry when I leave because I know I have to do it again tomorrow. I have switched jobs 9 times in 5 years and I’m afraid to leave this job because I feel like every job I go to is the same and will work me to death. I’ve been thinking of death a lot lately and the things that would happen If I were to just end myself. I do realize that I won’t just hurt myself I will hurt everyone around me. Mostly my family. My great grandmother passed away last week and I saw how everyone reacted even though they knew she was dying. How would they react if I died unexpectedly? My great uncle told me today that I’m like the granddaughter he’s never had. I really do love family and I would hate to leave them behind confused and hurt wondering why I would do such a thing. I’m stuck.

The only way out is to be more appreciative for what you have or summon extraordinary strength in order to improve your circumstances.
I have been struggling a lot and during my process I’ve come to realise that most of my unhappiness stems from the gap between my expectations and reality. Therefore the only way forward is to bridge that gap, one way or the other.
