Help Work is driving me suicidal

[Querry1]

Hey guys,

I've helped you many times, now I ask for help. So I'm in this Call Center job for over a year, when I'm not working all's good, but when I go to work... I just can not stand it. Working for more than 7 hours drives me insane. I'm tired. I exercise, meditate, meet with friends, learn new things - that's exciting! But working is a big no-no

The only thing that helped me is microdosing, but I'm just on the beginning, do you think going to psychotherapy would help me, or changing the job? I'm afraid it's not the job I hate, but just working for a useless corporation...

I know the feeling and I hate it too, just making or receiving a phone call fills me with anxiety.

I would advise that you begin to put applications into jobs that you think would be better suited for you. Don't just quit your job before hand though just try to endure until you find something else that you hopefully connect with. If you have any passions that could be turned into a career most certainly try to approach that.

completely get you... tried microdosing too, but im also an addict, couldnt kept control and ate them all...
tried several times

I also work, from 8am to 6pm, software automation... im just trying to enjoy it, and work on it, and im building my own software to try to create my own business...
its a crappy world ran by corporations and big businesses....

what do you do over the phone?
support right? not sales?
selling online is hot for many people....
you live with your parents, have a good kitchen and oven, and stove?
I used to make some Tamarind candy and sold it on the streets for over 1 year cause I did not wanted to return to the corporate world...
I returned to the corporate world because I wanted to save money to buy a big machine to make more Tamarind Candy and make a business and now i feel trapped in the corporate world, ..... plus it gives me the paycheck i need to build my software....

hmmm....

I was where you are.... im 37.... being working feeling hateful/resentful, about corporate world since about 28, today im enjoying it a bit more...

to your success jd
hope you find a way

Find another job before you have a mental breakdown. Once due to a job, I had a mental breakdown... I tried to "persevere" like an idiot because changing your job because your previous job was making you suicidal doesn't look good on your resume because the cocksuckers in charge of hiring people don't know what it's like to have to actually work for a living and wont see you as a good worker. Just a few more months, I told myself but considering every human being's brain is extremely fragile, all I did was shoot myself in the foot. It definitely made my life 10000 times worse. You don't want to end up going literally insane. Psychological warfare is literally being waged on your brain, on a daily basis. It's time to retreat to fight another day. The battle is lost. You are outnumbered, outgunned, becoming encircled, your troops are out of supplies and routing.

I'm learning programming and in a year I'm going to be studying, just in the meantime I have to earn money and I don't want it to be like that - I'm going to fill into other positions, thanks.

I know the feeling and I hate it too, just making or receiving a phone call fills me with anxiety.

I sit on phone one to two hours a week, I do mostly mail with customers, but it's boring as hell

Not selling, just helping with things related to service.
I'm living with my friend since November, moved out from my parents to bigger city, never felt better.

I would do delivery thing if I didn't get some sort of PTSD from car crashes dreams every night for a long time... Sitting behind a wheel gives me anxiety :(

Yeah, I've been holding there for too long, it was bad for a while but I was hoping it will get better. It's actually getting worse.

These kind of jobs always get worse, because they always try to squeeze and squeeze and squeeze more from you... And don't give a shit if you go insane because there is another slave to replace you in 2 seconds. You are an expendable asset.

Work to enrich those cunts? No thanks. Its one of the reason I want to die. I dont want to play their fucking games anymore. As if I have to be grateful that I have a work? That they gave me a job so I can earn money and live. Holy shit how kind of them. Now I owe them a debt of gratitude somehow? Am I beggar now? Did I signed indentured servitude form somewhere? Trading my life away for what exactly? Nah. If they like it so much they can fuck themselves and congratulate each other over this life they have. They talk as if I want to live. As if I need it. Ffs. No. I never chose this and I... never have to play by their rules to begin with. Its like they never realize it. This idiocy is infuriating.

Hi brother, I feel your pain to my core. I worked a CC for 13 years and it has left permanent scars.
In light of any professional medical help one thing that a lot of shitty service jobs have in common is in my experience, your colleagues usually hate it as much as you and that provides you with common ground.
I've got a couple of really solid friends I've found in these institutions and essentially having a laugh with my buddies and finding a way to 'stick it to the man' from the inside made it more bearable.
My 2c for what it's worth.
Good luck my friend

Self-employed, sound exactly how you did, you need to break the cycle and do your own things (if possible)...

Nothing beats being self employed other than being dead.

I really sympathize with u. I felt so depressed when I worked for other pple I decided to go into sex work but that is also damaging to my mental health because it is isolating and I already had issues with complex ptsd prior to entering prostitution. In your case I would really try to find a better work environment. One of my clients suggested real estate agent, u don't even have to be that great to make good money. The problem for me is that I have been arrested for prostitution and this likely will prevent me from being able to get licensed and work doing that. I totally would try to go into that if I could remove that off my record. Also it's not really expensive to get into real estate. The barrier to entry is not really high and feasible for most people if u have clean record.

I'm glad you have a job. I don't have one and it can be frustrating even though I need the break.

Psychotherapy could help if it's the right therapist. It has not worked for me.

I used to work with people who refer to each other as irrelevant. Fuck that! I will remain unemployed until I find a job that I am comfortable with and doesn't have management refer to people as pests when they try to have daily basic needs met. That's why happens with bad leadership.

I hope you find peace.
