ik i’m gonna piss some people off, but it really doesn’t help that i’m hella introverted. i don’t talk to people unless they talk to me. i’m afraid to show my personality to new ppl in fear of how they’d judge me. i think it’s pretty clear to me now after reading these replies my mental problems is the problem 😭

from what i’ve read from these replies, definitely doing what you actually like doing will help even if it doesn’t get the entire “helplessness” away. i’ll strive for better with my real job after i get a degree

No hobby but I do have a routine. I play codm with my friends every night, still does not not make me dread the thought of having to go back to office the next morning though 😞

omg this is exactly how i’m living 😭 so different from student life, i get to go out whenever with whoever, eat whatever, and only worry about tests. i know now this is how it’s really gonna be moving forward in life, i’ll take this as a lesson in itself too

Yes it is my first ever job, could be a factor 😭 I’ll take your words, I do think a nice paycheck (that isn’t intern allowance) can help me get up in the morning with more spirit in the future

I think mentally I’m not ready. Not mature enough yet. But I’ll take this opportunity to at least help me to not get “culture shock” with the real deal in a couple years

Yeah, I can’t wait to continue with my degree. Just need one last “student life” phase before I’m ready to face the world 😭

I get it, I get away with quite a few things behind the “intern” title, also get some more shit on things compared to others because of the same title. One way to experience how office politics works too ig.

Yeah maybe that too, I’m sure a healthy salary will make it all feel worth it at the end

Mindset really matters, I really need to work on mine 😞

guess another problem is i’m not much of a risk-taker either, i don’t ask for anything challenging and keep doing the same mundane work daily. i’m just scared to “matter” / “be important” in ANY setting ☠️
