>The hours are long
>The pay is low
>I get screamed at daily
>My feedback is negative all the time but they also say I'm good at my job
>ive been left behind, doing the exact same job for 5 years when people i hired in with have been promoted
>Asking for help feels like a crime because of my upbringing
>Ive been putting applications in to no avail so far
>Too poor to go back to school
>I get home and I just feel numb to the world.
>I find myself doing dangerous things to feel better

I feel trapped where I am at with no way out.

Sounds like you have to keep putting in applications for something better until you get a callback asap. You have to go as hard as you can at it because it sounds like you're extremely miserable and need to get out of there instantly

>>Too poor to go back to school
Set some time aside to study computers.
I know it might seem ridiculous, but it's the only way us poor-normie likes without autism and good families can attempt to exist. Rely on your support group and practice with moderation. Look up ITF roadmaps and get some certifications. Normies do not and will never take our place at the top of the food chain. best of luck anon.

I have A+ Certs, and nobody local recognizes them. They want bachelor's degrees

Of course I'm miserable at work, it's work. I have to basically sit there with my head down while I watch everyone get what I'm trying to earn, all because I'm patient with fucking boomers. But if I do anything wrong, I'm out the door with no guarantee of unemployment benefits.

I do know that I'll kill myself on my 40th birthday because another 30 years of this is bullshit. Its not like I haven't been trying to make things better, that's one of the reason I'm burnt out, constantly grinding for basically no end. I can't motivate myself anymore unless there is an actual tangible end to the grind.

I do wonder if I just fucked up royally in my 20s and now I'm just trapped.

A+ is the most basic cert you can get, that won't make you stand out.

I figured A+ would atleast get me into a help desk role, and then I build from there.
