I feel disatisfied with my life. I know that my life isn't that bad at all....I have a terrific new husband, a new home, a new kitty! Summer is here, and I am fairly healthy. But I feel stagnant or something. I feel I have no purpose. I feel discouraged, unchallenged, uninterested, depressed, and without faith or inspiration. Is this what they call quarter life crisis?
I don't want to do anything. I don't like my job, and can barely bring myself to work. I am tired all the time. I hate my commute. I wonder what I am meant to do in life. I wonder what I would be happy doing. What would I want to do every day? I wonder if there is more to this life...and think that there has to be something more. But what? Why am I so dissatisfied with my life? What do I want? I feel lazy and antisocial. I can't help but wonder if there is something wrong with me? Depression? Or just laziness?

Shyla I've been where you are right now with a job. The more you dislike your job the harder it is to turn up and actually do the work when you get there. I was so bored with mine and would count the minutes down till I could get out of there. Previously I'd changed jobs twice (same area of work, different companies) thinking it was just bordom with actual job I was doing before I eventually figured it was a change of career I needed not a change of job. That figured I felt trapped. I was in a fairly well paid job, which helped to pay a hefty mortgage and the bills that went along with it. I couldn't see a way out so I stuck with it hating every minute. Quite a long story but evetually both myself and my husband made the changes necessary (he wasn't entirely happy with his job either) and we didn't exactly foresee the path we eventually took. It led to us selling the house and down marketing considerably, which hadn't been the original plan at all but it became obvious after a while that there was no other option. It was well worth it though.
Sorry I've not really offered any advice and I'm not sure I've got any. I just want you to know that things can change even if they feel like they are going to go on forever.
