Realized that if i don't get some form of mental health treatment i am never going to successfully get another job. I no longer have health insurance in a few days.
I've dipped into my equivalent of retirement savings to last me the foreseeable future, make a couple major purchases i frankly should've done years ago (why tf are mattresses and bed frames so damn expensive?!) for quality of life, and have some semblance of easily accessible emergency funds. No credit card debt and car has been paid off.
My chair is quite broken but under warranty, a replacement is on its way in.... like a week or so. Entire chair leans at an angle in every direction balanced on the gas spring 🙃
I'm not unhappy and that confuses and alarms me?
Welp, bed frame went to shit. Got it, moved it all up stairs, got it all assembled, went to move it into place... and one of the joints broke.
Its at this point i look into the return policy and its functionally "ship back at customers cost"...
