I am so ready to end it all

I'm just so tired, and doing everything alone is starting to take its toll on me. I can't get out of this depression. I have the worst possible job for an extreme introvert. I come home with my battery so drained I end up crashing into bed by 4 pm. I have no life, just work and sleep. I've tried to find other jobs- recently submitted 26 applications to various places regardless of pay. Not ONE called me. So I'm stuck with this soul-succing job for now.

If this is all life is, I don't want to participate anymore.

hmmm, do you have any college experience? Are you good with math? I know someone starting an estimator position remotely. Quoting construction jobs. No college degrees but very experienced the industry. Point is estimating is something that can be done remote. It can be so hard to find remote work, but if you don’t give up searching and are patient will eventually find something. Do some research on Reddit about different remote positions too for different ideas on what company’s and positions to search for?
I know how tiring it is being an introvert and having to extrovert yourself. I did a lot of customer service and it was just 24/7 anxiety can’t wait to get home.
Really hope you find some happiness soon. If you ever want to talk i love sharing dumb ideas and would love to support you 💛
It's tough to see anything positive when the fog of depression is blocking your view. And I know it's easy for someone to say this so please forgive me.
You are needed. You are essential to someone. You may not be aware of that person because you haven't been told but someone needs your presence. Somone needs to know you're still around. I don't know who that person is either; it's just that I've seen others voice regret that they didn't speak up sooner when they find a certain presence is no longer here. They were too shy or afraid they would frighten the person away, and they wouldn't be able to deal with them being somewhere out of view.
Please know, someone needs you.

Please call a friend, family, loved one and a crisis line.

By "extreme introvert" are you possibly autistic or have AuDHD? It sounds like you are struggling with your social-battery or going through burnout.

It might feel hard at present, but potentially your dream-job is just around the corner. As an extreme introvert; you might find self-employment or "working from home" a better option than being around people frequently.

@GoldenOldie many of the 26 jobs I applied for were remote

@DearAmbellina2113 Please reach out to a trusted loved one. I hope your next job is soon and suits you
Please don't. It's just a moment of exhaustion. Have you tried remote work jobs? You probably have, but I am just checking, because sometimes people don't know.

How many 4pms? How many times you feel lonely and let down? Sometimes how you feel alone is way beyond how someone has been with you. And the one who wants to end it all often doesn't see their own struggle as just their own.

That sucks, sorry to hear it. I had a similar situation many years ago - a job which just killed my motivation, and I begrudged travelling there day in and day out.

I got out after eventually finding something better, albeit less pay. It was the biggest weight off my shoulders.

I think it’s just a case to keep looking, as something will eventually come your way.
