Feeling of losing purpose
Hi there, after attending a Celebration of my friends birthday yesterday, i came back feeling pretty low. It made me reflect on how much i used to value working and how it used to give me a sense of purpose, especially hearing what other are doing now, velebrating their wins in life when i feel the opposite. Whilst pleased for them. It bought up horrible ferlings of envy and feeling cheated. I used to work in quite highly stressed roles, but had to give it up a few years ago.
I hear you. I used to work 60+ hours a week and I felt great looking at all I accomplished that day. I have talked to old coworkers recently and they talked about how great the company is doing. I was the guy getting others to do their best because our bonus depends on it. I miss working so much and feeling good at the end of the day
