Bad career path is eating at me again

[JCC988]

Mentally I feel like I can survive now, but I still can't really live.

What I mean is that I want/need a better job. I'm badly underemployed working a brainless part time job. There's no challenge except maybe keeping the stress down. I might be able to get vocational rehab but I don't think I can quit my job to do so due to living expenses. Not to mention I'd be running a huge risk if it didn't work out. Even more risky is the fact that I have a very limited skill set to offer employers making me not very competitive.

I feel stuck and don't know what to do. And it makes me feel bad.

Sorry you are feeling this low. I do hope you get a better job that you like but remember you were absolutely thrilled when you got this current one? Remember that feeling. I hope you figure out what you want to do, best wishes.

Work through this parttime job while looking for a better opportunity. Don’t stress about having a limited skillset. Mostly everyone lies about their “impressive” skillsets anyway
