I need advice
I am on my 4th job that I just joined a month ago
I am 20
My first job was 6 months internship
Second job was 2 months internship and 8 months permanent
Third job was 6 months permanent (they turned the team into freelancers and tbh I felt the company won't last long)
Now the thing is I have been wanting a break for a long time not being able to enjoy stuff really effecting me mentally my friends go out have fun when I am stuck working not just that companies I have worked for so far made me work on Sunday, said sat will be off than switched up later I also want to learn more stuff not being able to while working but I feel like the current company I am working was is paying me well (8lpa), it's a senior role and WFH if I leave another won't come by if I don't leave than how will I learn and be able to get more opportunities in future (and the biggest point is that I am feeling suicidal cause of some stuff in my life) not sure what to do plz help 😥

Bro just take a pause. Be practical and take a wise decision. Firstly you try to save some money before you take a break. atleast for 2 3 months in advance. Try to cut your experiences and avoid anything which is not important to you for few months. Once you have money in hand then just resign and enjoy for sometime. Its alright these kind of stress may happen but you just need to pause and restart the cycle.
and also adding to the above point. you mentioned you see your friends having fun. trust me they must have something else which is bothering them in life. Noone shows the negative side of the life. so dont overthink. Just plan your actions and make small steps to get out of this zone
Have you shared this with any of your friend ?

It sounds like you’ve been juggling a lot at a young age, and that’s commendable. However, if you’re feeling burnt out, it’s okay to pause and reevaluate. Consider having an honest conversation with your employer about work-life balance or transitioning into a role that allows you to grow and learn without compromising your mental health.

Bro, you’ve achieved so much at just 20!But If it’s not working, taking a short break to focus on yourself and your mental health isn’t a bad idea either.

What’s more important to you right now financial stability, skill-building, or mental peace? Try to align your decisions with your priorities and give yourself grace along the way.

You’re 20, not 40! Take a breather, maybe pick up a fun hobby, and then come back stronger. WFH isn’t going anywhere. Also, Sunday work? Big nope!
