Therapist might help. Ppl have told me to do that, and I guess I’ve technically been once or twice a long time ago before I could make the decision myself

BUT… I don’t think there is necessarily anything wrong with OP for feeing this. There’s a reason why Office Space is popular. I sometimes think there’s something wrong with the people I know who like their bullshit jobs or take their work seriously. Either deluded or really good at acting.

Don’t underestimate the power of changing the way you look at things in your life, which a therapist can help with.

A different perspective always helps. I know someone who had issues focusing and deferring gratification, she’s doing better now. I am not diagnosing and this is just a random example where therapy helped... bTW, my dad retired without knowing what he “really” wanted to do...
