Is it impossible to get out of it?

So I'm poor.
My life sucks.
All jobs are like torture for me, 40 hours a week of pure torture, never heard of any job that doesn't seem like complete shit.

So to stop being poor I just need endure even more torture.
To fix other problems I need to work even more.

Which makes my life suck.

So I'm stuck in this circle of pain?

Anyone fixed this?

You might ty a temp agency so you do not have to do the same work for long. You might also consider part time work. You might want to take a stab at something artistic like music, drawing, writing, etc. Sometimes finding a way to express yourself can bring satisfaction.

Im struggl8ng even without work. If I had to work I think I'd give it 2 weeks before jumping in front of a train. Or maybe I'd quit, then become homeless, then jump in front of a train.

It's hard because most low paid jobs are shit. You might be able to do something that is a little less like torture. Idk if you've tried being a handyman or going into painting and decorating?

Yeah. There's no getting around the misery of work. It's what I'm most afraid of. Since my mind went to shit in college I've been doomed to menial work (though NEETing now). Doing some hourly crap while I observe my body and mind rotting for decades would be unendurable. Avoiding it is a major reason I want to CTB.

It's probably impossible. The only hope might be that becoming a NEET gets more normalized as more people are forced into that downward spiral. But even then that wouldn't make living worth it for a lot of people.
