No - not about to jump - though I have been there.
Just weary - all i do is work - 7 days a week - no holiday for years - and when I'm not working I'm looking after my 2yo son. My wife and I barely speak we're so busy just trying to keep ourselves above the breadline. Work is hard and stressful, I don't make enough money and she complains all the time about it, we live in a rough neighbourhood where we are the only people who seem to have jobs. All night the kids are in the street screaming and playing football, people can't seem to play music unless it is at ground shaking volume and then they have to have the windows open. Summer is terrible here - winter coming now and that is some relief - I pray for rainnot and gales that will last for weeks so we can get some peace and quiet.
Our relationship is on the rocks - she lost her fertility after our boy was born and now she is just angry all the time. We can still conceive again but only via IVF but the cost is too much - we just can't afford it - already massively in debt
So what's the point of it all - where is the life is all this crap? Seems we're just killing ourselves to raise a son into a world where no-one has time for anyone, no community left - England is dead unless you are rich. You can have a life as long as you have money - but everyone else is a slave.
We are a nation that has been divided and comprehensively conquered. Our culture is the culture of the aristocracy - there is no simple life to be had here - if you are poor - it's just crap
So i will continue slowly drinking and drugging myself to death because i just can't see the point of this life
