Venting Why do I still feel so unhappy?

[CrazyDiamond04]

I got accepted into my university's master's program a while back and start this Monday. I also have a tutoring job and maybe even a job as an advisor later this year. So why do I feel like I'm the unhappiest I've ever been? This should be good but I just can't stand it. I've been trying but making my life "better" feels like I'm making it worse. I feel so useless and incompetent; like a loser. I feel so ashamed of myself. I don't think I'll ever be happy. The only thing thats keeping me sane is looking forward to Resident Evil Veronica next year. I feel like such a weak willed shrinking violet.

You obviously feel unfilled in your life. Do you actually want to do the masted program? Is it in a field you like? There is a lot more to life than school and getting degrees. What is the rest of your life like?

When I got my masters, I was not happy at all. I hate my career and spending time on yet another degree for a job I did not want made me feel terrible. This was on top of a lot of other stuff in my life bringing me down.
