Is it possible to just...stop going to your job?
It's funny. When I was really young, I was always busy. I never had time to hang out with my friends because there was always some sport or extracurricular activity that I had to be doing at the time. But I did end up making a lot of friends through those extracurricular activities. Then, sometime in middle school, I just kinda stopped, and I had all the free time in the world, but nothing changed. Now I had to be the one to wait and see if my friends were free. Sure I could do anything, but I would have to do it alone. That lasted for a long time, pretty much throughout my entire time at high school. In my last year I picked up extracurricular stuff again, which helped because I started making friends again. I tried joining clubs and stuff in college too, which only lasted through my first quarter (I gave one of them my email and they never took me off of the email list so I still get updates about club meetings and evites and stuff), so I haven't met a lot of people in college that I didn't already know, and the ones that I did know were still busy with stuff like SO's or work. Now I have a job and I know that it's going to be tiring, but I keep thinking back to that several-year lazy period and how those were some of the worst years of my life, and how if I quit now just to have more free time, I'll be right back where I started, and that keeps me going.
