It's been a while since I posted on here, it helped alot being able to talk about my problems and finally giving myself a voice, after a bit I realised I didn't need it to much thank you to everyone who helped then, I need help again.
In my life I work a standard 8 to 5 job, and it's stressful, some days I wish I don't even wanna go in or wanna call sick but I love working to much, my weekend feel like the end before they begin and before I know it I'm back at work, till yesterday I decided to take some time off to let my mind calm down from the stress of working so much, but it was the worst mistake I've made, today was the first day I truly felt alone, not having any friends, no one to text or talk to no one to call cause their busy, and I understand everyone has a life but I didn't realise how much I need to work, it's not healthy for my mental health to work so much but when I stop working I go even lower, I feel more alone and more depressed then I did working, I've tried so hard to make conversations with people or try stuff but in the end I'm still, alone, I never thought I'd become addicted to work till I stopped, I don't wanna work my whole life I wanna be able to travel and see different things but now the fear of not working cause ill feel like this makes me scared, it makes me scared that I'll be alone forever if I don't work, if I don't do something to keep my mind busy I'll be alone and I get stuck in this cycle of thinking by the end I feel numb again.
This post is just a rant to get it off my chest thank you all for giving me a place to speak and put my thoughts somewhere when I have no one to go to
