to feel like I'm in prison?

Really OP? We could all find more fun things to do with our time.

Some people love their jobs, some like their jobs, some hate their jobs. If you hate your job, why? Is it the actual tasks? The company? The people? If so, these can be changed.

if it’s just because it’s ‘work’ and you’d rather be doing something else, then sorry, but you need to suck it up.

It’s called ‘work’ for a reason.

We work to earn money, to get out of the house, for independence, to better our lives. To pay the bills.

no one else is going to do this for you.

If you didn't work you wouldn't be able to afford to fill your free time with fun things.

If you've tried numerous job changes perhaps you can focus on the financial benefits of working.

What do you enjoy doing? What are you great at? Is there anyway you could transform those activities into some form of job?

I know it’s not possible for everyone but is there anything you particularly enjoy that you could find in a job? Is it that you just dislike the job you have, or that you dislike working in general?

Like my sister always had call centre jobs and hated those, but she now has a job helping people back into employment, going out to businesses to chat with them about vacancies and staff, engaging 121 with clients looking for work and training etc and she loves that. Yes it’s still work but it’s enjoyable and doesn’t feel so monotonous, every day is different.

I have a job that I do really love, I have different clients and cases, every case is different, every day is different, I’m talking with different people and agencies, problem solving, travelling across the country for visits and meetings, I love it. But if I had a job where I was going into the same office all day every day and doing the exact same thing day in day out I’d probably feel the same as you.
