i recently received my first job at seventeen and everyone’s excited besides me. i’ve tried to look at the brighter side, but the job is terrible and i can’t see myself doing this for the rest of my life. when i expressed how miserable the job makes me, how it makes my favorite hobbies feel strenuous, like a task i’m completing instead of truly indulging in it, they just tell me i’m spoiled and that i can do it, or i’m overreacting. but i can’t. i cry myself to sleep every night and feel like my life’s been taken from me, and with school approaching, i feel like i have to give up on the things i love to do. i hate that i feel like giving up on everything because i’m always consumed with work and what i “should be doing” instead of enjoying life. but it’s like no one cares and it’s making me consider suicide if that’s what my future will look like.

Hi,
You are still young and have a long way to go. Always look for the better. This job could just be temporary and once you turn 18 or finish with school, you can look for jobs that fit your career or hobby type.
Please know that it gets better and life isn't going to cloudy.
I am 16 and still looking for a job. I've been looking since school ended and now its August 11th. School starts on september 7th. It's been very stressful as well. I feel as if we're still young annd understanding the world so we shouldn't put these stressful thoughts in our head. That's a later problem lmao.
I hope you feel better,
xoxo.
