Working a job you didn’t like or were unemployed.
In an unhealthy relationship or alone.

driving home from work. watched a pedestrian get hit by a car. I didn't blink. i felt nothing. that's when i knew i was in a death spiral and needed help. quit my white collar job. got a quick (expensive) divorce. entered therapy for depression anxiety disorders. retrained as a millwright. started my own metal fabrication business. took 8 more years to pay off my debts and get back on my feet.
