Is this it? Is there anything more to life, am I missing something? - Blåhaj Lemmy

Currently I am a uni student, working 4 days a week during the summer, moving to about 3 during term time. Every day I’m not working I feel tired constantly, regardless of amount of sleep. I push through anyways to get the work that needs done finished, then sit down and just collapse basically. I wouldn’t even call it relax, just sit and switch off. I don’t have any energy or motivation to play games anymore, even though I used to play avidly. I play guitar but it’s been feeling like I’m not getting as much out of it now… Once I’m out of uni, I’ll be in full-time and, if I get into the industry I want, more mentally taxing work. In short, is there something I’m missing here, or is work-eat-sleep-repeat all there is until I retire? Cause frankly I’m more sure I can be arsed if not…

I’m in a simile boat, and am working on managing my dopamine set point. It’s tough, but it def helps, I recommend looking into that!
