Bit of sadness is getting me again (lemmings.world)

The temporary job I have currently is depressing but I don't have any other options, I don't have studies or preparation of any kind and I'm not a kid anymore, anti social and poor to getting out of this...

I was trying to get my driving license but I was thinking on giving up on that, the teacher is kind of an asshole and I dread the lessons, after so many I don't see progress... I'm only still going because starting from zero means hundreds of euro wasted, starting from 0 means another investment. I wish I wouldn't had started them, but I was being pressured by my family due being unemployed.

I have to go to work again tonight in an hour, night shift... I almost wanna get fired.

I apologise if my post is a downer, but this is basically the state of my life.

I think that aligns well with the general advice on how to get somewhere and how to start moving: You take one step at a time...

And if you're really down, the only thing that matters is that you do any. And make it a habit to do it regularly. You can worry about the size of the steps and the direction later, after you stopped being completely down and disheartened. But I'm not a psychologist...
