Weight

I just feel this heavy weight on my shoulders all the time and I just feel like I'm stuck in this place where I am just so low and down and I can't pull myself out. I didn't get any homework done today. I came home from the coffee shop and I played with my puppy for a bit, then I cried again, then I slept until work and now I'm working. I can't do anything right. I just want to cry all the time. I can't fix my life. I can't move home when I need to, and I can't seem to make this work. I don't know what to do anymore. Thinking about living here much longer makes me cry at the drop of a hat. I just need to be home again. I just want to go home.

You know you are a grown adult, your 23, you can make your own decisions. If that job is making you feel this much insanity and madly miserable, then give your notice. You can't always rely on your parents to make your decisions for you. Yes there are right ways to do things, and we all want our children to do things the right way in the right order, but there are also exceptions to the Rules.

There are jobs out there to be found. like I said to you previously, you may have to take a lesser job until you find one in your chosen career, but if your this miserable than give your notice. Because living like this is ridiculous.

The problem is I will have no where to live if I give my notice. I can't move in anywhere without proof of income. So without my parents saying I can live with them for a little while, I'm stuck here.

I understand feeling like there is a weight on top of you. I have my own that I fight with everyday. But you can do it, you can beat your feelings. You just need to decide what you want, and make a plan to get there. It won't always be easy. When you start it will be the hardest thing to deal with, but if you want it (whatever that it is whether it is a new job or whatever else) you can do it. And above anything else, you deserve to be happy with yourself.
