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

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...

EDIT

Thanks for the responses, I kinda posted this in a moment of hopelessness for life and I don't really know what I wanted as a response.

Asking for the meaning of life? Lemmy's great and all, but I don't think I'll find it here lmao

Regardless, there's a few things here for me to look into and take further, so thank you again!

If this is to close for comfort for rule 3, feel free to delete mods

  • I was in the same work-eat-sleep-repeat for years and the only advice I have is to go see a psychologist (the one who helps by talking, sorry for my English). Ironically, but you need to work to build the work-life balance, and that's may be hard on start
