Is Work Supposed to Feel Like a Life Sentence? 😩

I'm 30, single, and living in a high-cost city, but honestly, my life feels stuck on repeat. I went into nursing after my B.Sc, thinking it was the practical choice. Fast forward, and here I am, burnt out and barely hanging on in a job that drains me every day. I found a position with less patient contact, hoping it would help, but now I'm just in a toxic office where the pay barely covers rent, let alone dreams of owning a home. My partner and I want to get married soon, but I worry about being a financial burden. Going back to school feels impossible—who has the time or money for that? Every Sunday, I dread the week ahead, wondering if work is supposed to be this miserable. Am I missing something? Is anyone out there actually happy with their job, or is this just how adulthood works? Would love to hear your thoughts or advice. 😔 #CareerStruggles #WorkplaceBurnout #LifeChoices #JobCareer
