How do you stop feeling like you need to work 8+hrs, 5 days a week? Are you allowed to want to just stop? At what price?

You need to feel the need to work enough to be able to earn your own damn way in life. You don't have the right to coast and put that weight on others.

Beyond that .. it all comes down to what you are willing to do for what you want.

@BrandNewMan It's the other way around.
@Casheyane What do you mean?

@BrandNewMan I made the choice to carry the weights of others when we lost the one who used to carry all of us. Couldn't be a child since then.
@Casheyane Ah. I've been pulling that load, mostly alone, for longer than you've been alive. Its tougher these days .. no doubt.

Find what ways you can to take back as much time /control as possible. HQ move made my commute unbearable, went full time from home over 10 yrs ago. Game changer for me. No commute stress / expense and 2 hrs of my day back x 5. Throw a load of laundry in, run dishwasher or walk the dogs at lunch, etc.

Hope you find something that helps.
