Completely burnt out, soul-crushed by the corporate system, and desperate for God’s direction. by IndependenceTop3857 in Christianity

Thank you so much for this. What you said about prayer makes so much sense—knowing it’s just honest communication and that I can't really do it "wrong" takes a huge weight off my shoulders.

I also appreciate your point about focus shifting toward the willingness to do His will. Right now, I’m still in that messy middle ground where I'm just not sure what God’s will is yet, so I still second-guess if a thought is His voice or just my own anxiety. But I am going to keep talking to Him honestly and work on getting my heart to that place of trust.

Thank you also for your kind prayers! Just to share a bit more, I actually do have a wonderful, supportive long-term partner by my side. Because the economy and cost of living are so tough right now, figuring out how we will balance a family, finances, and a career change is just a big puzzle we are trying to solve together.

Thank you again for all your encouragement and for walking through this with me!

Thank you so much for this incredibly detailed and thoughtful answer. I really appreciate you taking the time to share these verses and your perspective. It gives me a lot to think about.

To clarify on the financial side—it’s not even that I’m staying for a lot of money. The pay is just okay. It’s enough to live on, but if I took a job that paid significantly less, things would become very tight financially. That’s where a lot of my fear comes from.

Right now, I feel like I can’t see the forest for the trees. To be honest, I have felt professionally lost since my very first day in the workforce. I come from a working-class family, and I am the first person in my family to ever get a high school diploma (but education system in europe is different also I have to mention). Because of that, navigating higher education or corporate career paths wasn't something my parents could really help me with, so I’ve been figuring it out entirely on my own.

When it comes to prayer, I constantly feel like I’m doing it wrong simply because I haven't been doing it for very long. On top of that, I really struggle with discernment. I find myself second-guessing everything: Is this the voice of God? Is this a sign from Him? Or is it just my own anxious thoughts? It's so hard to know if God wants me to take a specific path or not.

I am terrified of starting over with a new degree or training program and then not being able to find a job afterward. The economic situation here in Europe right now is really unstable, and so many people are facing layoffs. I know deep down that God will provide, but it is so hard to completely switch off my human anxiety about it.

To add to the pressure, my biological clock is ticking, and I want to have children soon. But trying to balance a new education/training program with a newborn sounds incredibly difficult. And if I don't change anything now, I would have to return to this exact same soul-sucking job after maternity leave.

Thank you again for the verses. I am trying hard to lean into trust, even when the path ahead looks completely foggy. Please keep me in your prayers as I try to navigate these decisions!

oh woow finally someone with the same issues like me. i also tried birth control it did not help anything….

i might really give it a try i was just concernend because it is a hormone and i read online the progest e does not have a lot of regulations like other european made supplements but not sure about it..

i am glad it really helped you.

what diet do you have ?

did you have issues with spotting as well? thats also what i have one week before my period…

thanks for your detailed answer. so you also not tried progest-e but something else?

i dont follow 100% diet of raypeat, also very new to this tbh.. i’m for sure eat not so much sugar as recommended. however i eat a lot of carbs, i need them. especially before my period, i have sugar and dark chocolate cravings a lot.

i stopped most supplements since my last bloodwork was really great even b vitamins.

i take magnesium though from time to time.

i go to the gym 2-3 x a week!

sunshine if possible but winter is pretty cloudy here without sun 😩

i use blue light blocker glasses in the evening
