Dunno how else to call it. Got me a job. It’s not a bad job. I like the work I do, I tolerate the people there, the hours are not long, it’s unionised so they can’t harrass me when I’m off the clock, it pays the bills I got.

… But god damn. Once I’m home I lack the drive to do literally anything.

I’ve stopped going to gym, I often eat junk cuz I just don’t wanna cook, even my hobbies are being left to gather dust. After working my 9-to-5 I just wanna lie down and rot until it’s work time again.

So the question is, how do the better-adjusted adults handle this?

    Aside from a really good advice on putting activity before home, make sure you sleep enough.

    While it may sound tempting to have a few extra hours in the evening, the way you spend them when you’re exhausted is meaningless.

    When you get proper sleep, you may have a bit less time on your hands, but you can actually turn the time you do have into something nice.

    Trust me - you’ll thank yourself for this when you find out you still have energy after your work.
