    I’m doing my dream job and I feel like shit anyway. So I guess my dreams were a bit off.

      This is what I worry about. What if I get everything I ever wanted and it’s still not enough? What is the point then?

        Protip: it’s never going to be enough. Your brain has this neat trick it does where it acclimates to a new normal after a while, so eventually you’re right back to where you were, wanting more and better things.

        Find something in your life that brings you happiness, that’s a lot easier than chasing happiness through the employment you’re forced to have if you want to survive in this shit hole.

        My problem is not exactly “not being enough”, but the fact that I feel overwhelmed by my job and my boss, maybe it’s just me and my chronic anxiety.
