Meanwhile, I work in a straining job where I come home, my knees feel weak, my right ankle is aching like fuck, I am mentally drained, I barely can even put together a thought process that tells me I should even have breakfast while fighting the urge to sleep while I try to have a fraction of what constitutes as a life. As well as work in a place, where I am almost always on threat of being fired for something petty because my management feels they have to have a bone to pick with me by fucking around with me and being snarky while doing it.

Why the fuck are you doing that to yourself? Get another job. It sounds highly unhealthy where you're currently at.

Yeah, way to make it sound soooooo easy. In a country where thousands and thousands of jobs are cut at a given. You'd be a fucking idiot to quit a job cold and compete in a job market flooded with people needing a job. What kind of reality are you living in where people can just simply go and pick up a job? I've had a period of my life where I was jobless for a year and a half, trying and trying but getting no where. Why the fuck would I want that again because some nobody online said "D'UHHH GET ANOTHER JOB!" without realizing where we are in status of this country.

I see. If moving to another country, where you don't have to suffer such conditions, is also not an option then I hope you're looking for something else while you're at your current job. These are no conditions anyone should suffer.
