Anyone ever hate to wakeup in the morning?

[AtreyuKun]

Overall things in my life are pretty good. I'm married to a wonderful lady, just bought a very affordable new home, and genuinely happy most of the time.
What's not so great is my work life. Now I know, work sucks. We ALL know that, but somehow this seems different than just works sucks. Every weekday, I wake up in a foul mood because I have to work. It's to the point where I think I'm going insane.
I've looked into online classes to give me a leg up. but I'm not sure what to do. Work sucks, but it pays those bills, and buys that snus, but I'd rather shoot myself than work where I am another day. It's just so depressing, that it physically hurts.
Anyone else out there feel like this, or am I the only nutter out there?

You're the only one.

Seriously, it sure does sound like time for a new job, or at least some kind of change.

nope. hardly the only one. you just described exactly what I'm going through. I keep my private life to myself online, and wouldn't get into the problems w/my work situation, but it's bad. I work in the family business, and it's going to hell. i'll leave it at that. i don't sleep at night, and wake up miserable. definitely time for a career change, and a change of scenery as well. my wife, who is fantastic and is the only thing that keeps me going, and i are both looking into moving very soon. someone once said "I'd rather be at the bottom of a ladder I want to climb than halfway up a ladder I don't want to climb". here's hoping it works out for you. cheers, and chin up!

Yes, I do hate to wake up in the morning. So I most of the time, stay up all night so I don't have to wake up <--- gives me more time in the morning to set things up and do serious things.

Also, I hate waking up in the afternoon too(Implying I went to bed at 1pm-3pm), someone ALWAYS disrupts my precious REM sleep and I wake up in a crumpy mood.

What do you do?

I've got a 2 year old and a 4 week old. I work shifts and on days I get up at 05:15 and work a 12 hour shift.

I'm f***ed. I go around in a permanent state of exhaustion and I dream of change. I dream of peace and quiet, the freedom to shag whoever I want - a life without kids and the ability to go out to party, get smashed and have a lovely lie in in the morning. Those days are gone and I miss them.

Vegan keeps saying that. Probably would at least help in getting my ass out of bed.

When my kids were that small I thought that whole parenting thing would be a piece of cake. Flash forward, my kids are 18, 16 and 14 and it's just now to the point where it's getting hard.

I wish I could give you some inspiring quotes to make it worthwhile and meaningful but in the end, you have to want to be a parent. I wish you the best of luck but always keep in mind that those two little souls are pretty much 100% dependent on you for the next 16-18 years.

Best of luck!

I know - I do love them dearly ..............but I also love getting p!ssed and shagging women :lol:

Frosted and AtreyuKun,

Both of you guys, consider getting some counseling. There isn't the stigma associated with it as there was in the past. We all are far from perfect creatures and getting an outside perspective on our situations from a qualified person (not some message board dude or dudette) would go along way to changing your perspective on life.

Depression (which based on your posts is a distinct possibility) is a miserable disease to live with and can have some very bad consequences for not only yourself, but those around you.

If you need it, get some help.

Well then take my last post with a grain of salt :P

I think you just need to talk your significant other into a swingers lifestyle :P

[Frosted]

To your first point - Eh? :lol: :lol: I'm just tired :shock:

Atreyukun doesn't need counselling - he just needs a change. The daily grind is depressing and I think we'd all rather be doing something else more enjoyable. My advice to you Atreyukun - become a porn star. I'd love that job.

I've also been limiting my alcohol intake to virtually nil due to lack of sleep (screaming baby) and the energy required to look after a 2 year old. I'm screaming for an opportunity to get totally plastered.

To your second post - I really really fancy my wifes best friend.

I feel the same way. I dread every morning, and 2 days weekend off is just not enough, and it depresses me to think this will go on, probably till I die. In our failed nation, I feel very lucky to even have a job, as I was unemployed for a few years before I got this, and it wasn't for lack of trying. So, now I make decent pay, good set hours, good location, but what I actually do, is so unfulfilling, I feel like I am in mental misery all day, just wait till 5pm every day, and wait till Friday every week. I even wish 2012 is true. I am afraid if I quit, I'd be a total idiot, so I tell myself I wanna just pack away as much cash as I can for another year, and then start looking for something else. I feel mentally drained, chronic exhausted, and depressed. There are other contributing factors, my food issues/health, some slight irritants at home life. I'm pretty happy in my relationship, though I often think I should have stayed a Hindu monk. I do try and be positive and work on things like my band, and music, I just released a new CD last Saturday, and have a few interests I explore at times, like the fake moon landings. But overall, I do feel I am in a rut, and I think the main cause is my type of job, but again, in the big picture, I am just lucky to even have a job.
