Just quit my relatively well paying tech job because I fucking hated waking up in the morning. I have no idea what to do now. I don't have another job lined up.

I just bought a house and have a roommate covering the mortgage. If I sell my car that should bring my expenses way down to an almost viable NEET threshold. It cost so much money to have that fucking car insured and I financed it like a moron. What should I be doing so I don't have a huge gap in my resume? Make up a fake IT company? Actually start one? SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE AAAAAHHHH

Start a small company for consulting work, and freelance a bit when you’re feeling better. You should get a therapist though dude

You failed anon. Everyone knows half of your job is just waking up in the morning and going to it. Surprisingly a large minority of people can't do this.

I did the same last week - looking to rest for a few months, start therapy. Its called mental breakdown - your brain is telling you something must change. Money is not everything, neglecting your needs and health can lead to a disaster. Rest and recharge OP, when you are ready you will find a better job.

Thank you anon. I recently had a horribly nasty breakup with the girl I was engaged to and it killed my motivation. Tickets started piling up and I felt like I constantly had to cover my ass. I never wanna work at an MSP again. Wouldn't mind owning one though. The problem is that I live in a poor rural area and there aren't too many clients that aren't cheap as fuck. Maybe I could change fields altogether though. Either way, it's nice to hear I'm not alone in this.

How does one get a proper therapist during Covid? I needed therapy last year but all I could find was over-the-phone therapists, and I don't know how effective those are. I'd expect for a therapist to need to see their patient in person to better read their body language for the treatment to be effective

Therapists aren't really that useful if you are self aware of your issues.

>I'm so special that a therapist needs to read my oh so subtle body language because I'm so deep and complex
You're not the first person to have your problem, they're basically going to be following a flowchart at first. You're making excuses.

as tech fag here who hates getting up, sitting around the computer where every outlook alert and every messenger ping reminds me i am not free, I sympathize with OP. I have about $700K and a paid home so its enough to leanfire from wagecucking but just the fact I am lucky enough to get paid well WFH a few hours a day has kept me quitting my job although i don't know how much longer I can hold on since since the bullrun
>>25890512
>>25891653
it's not really natural to work even when you don't really work that much because you lose that freedom, someone owns your time, you're forced to get up and do certain tasks, attend meetings, be friendly, etc makes me really unhappy. i think most people don't admit this because they would be depressed as fuck

Based.
I'm in a similar situation, except it's not like I'd like to sleep in - just do something "good" and not make money for Silicon Valley.
But I got to many stocks vested to actually quit...

Honestly mate you couldn't wake up because you didn't like your life. Quitting was good for you, ignore the redditors who are just trying to justify their miserable existence. Fuck the sunk cost. If you have enough money then use it to figure out what you could do that you enjoy.
