My answer is it depends. It depends on the type of work. On the individual if the person likes the work or despises it. The mental state of the person etc.
I think I personally could live without work. I don't need work to live a fulfilled life. (I have other reasons why my life is shitty though): I envy people with a stable income without working. Some people arrange themselves with welfare. I won't be able to do that instead I will have to ctb.
Currently I go to college. It is true the social interactions improved my sanity. It feels good to have a goal I can strive to. Though the cons outweigh the pros by far. It is extremely dangerous to get a psychosis or mania. It triggers OCD and a lot of other shit. I need addictive medication to cope with it. I experience extreme pressure when there are exams. This stems from my past-abuse. I think for me and the society something different was the smartest move. Though it will never happen. GIve me 200-250 euros more than usual welfare (per month). You might prevent a suicide, a patient who will be frequently in very expensive clinics and I would need less expensive medication. This is would benefit both sides. I once read in Switzerland people with psychosis usually don't work due to these considerations (expensive clinic stays). But this was years ago. And I could not find the source again. Take it with a grain of salt.
There are experts who claim humans need work to stay mentally stable. I doubt that a lot. This does not count for all people. Maybe for some people who are privileged to have an interesting job. Someone who likes his work and the people the person he or she daily meets.
I even read this from expert when they talked about higher welfare. Something I extremely hope for. They said people don't need more money they need work that fits to them. GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU ASSHOLES. Working triggers me extremely. And I will kill myself due to the low amount of money you get from welfare. GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU SO-CALLED "experts".
I don't generalize my case. I think there are people who benefit from the structure and routines that you get from a job. Some people really like to have goal. But I think many people could also live satisfying lives without work.
For disabled people there are workplaces in my country. The payment is extremely low. It is a joke. But it shall give the people who work there a good feeling. Sorry but I feel as the butt of the joke if I don't even get paid 1 buck an hour.
A psychiatrist once thought this would be a good treatment for me. This dude was an extreme unempathetic idiot. It was pure torture for me. I had extreme depression to that time. I needed better medication and not this fucking bullshit. I felt extremely humiliated.
I am glad that people can profit from it. I don't criticize that such work places exist. But for me personally it felt like slavery. This psychiatrist did not care about me at all. He was arrogant, lazy and not interested in my case. What a fucking asshole. I don't doubt people can profit from it. But it was so obvious that I would suffer from it. What I actually did a lot. I think I went there two times. It was extremely hellish. It made me very very suicidal.
