Your job is just a job…

What makes you worth anything is who you are as a person. That’s what makes you everything.

At least to me it seems like you have an unhealthy relationship with your job or just work in general.

I'm only worth something if I can earn and support others. That is what makes a man valuable, without that he's nothing and I am a barely fictional man to begin with. Without my job I'm just a burden on others.
Weird. I’m a guy and never felt this way personally.

Why would I be a burden on others? I’ve never perceived this.

I support myself and that’s all I need. Doesn’t take much at all to support myself, at least in my experience.

hey man, please shoot me an email, I've not quite been in your shoes but would love to talk it out anonymously if you like, or at least just listen if you want to vent more. It's (hidden behind icloud for obvious reasons) chokers_blatant0o@icloud.com
