I can't think of a single, rational career choice that I would ever be content with, let alone enjoy. I'm almost 30 years old and I've spent most of my adult life pretending to be something I'm not.
What is your major again?

Thats a tough place to be in man. When I was 24 my wife was cheating, I felt like my life was falling apart. I lived in Ohio. The day before Thanksgiving I packed my car with what I could carry and drove to Oregon to my brothers house. In January I was running out of money so I got a job paying a fraction of what I was making just so I could stay. I never went back and have been on an uphill climb for the better ever since. Sometimes you gotta do what is best for you.

Ohhhh, try feeling the exact same way at 45.

I've only moved 5 times, but have had more jobs than I have fingers and toes. Done everything from testing driving cars to building batteries for the space station. I'm currently opening 4000 envelopes a day with fucking ink cartridges in them.

This isn't what I wanted in life, but here I am, I deal with it and wonder what adventures are next in life.

Triple, get help man.

It seems like you are depressed every time you post.
Do you think you will find happiness in Alaska?
Talk to a professional, dude.

Was the finger shake included?

But I concur that depression plays a part in these feelings. Doesn't matter where I go, or what job I have. Seems like I'm rarely happy, and usually get bored w/in a year or two.

I would love to do it again, but I'm not gonna leave my husband(I kinda like him).


Same for me, I just up and dissapeared, was sick of my life and where I was so I just didnt show up, didnt tell anyone where I was going or doing or anything like that (it was a real dick move on my part). Anyway i wound up living in a 2 bedroom apartment in manhattan for 6 months that only had inflatable furniture with some girl I met and 4 of her friends. Real bad move on my part, put me in some real bad situations, but I learned and did so much in that 6 months that I wouldnt trade it for anything.
