Not happy and satisfied
I am not happy the way I am living life for last 6 years since i have started working. I do a job which i do not from the day i started. I can not change now because i have stuttering problem due to which i can not speak normally and thus cannot give interview anywhere properly. I feel trapped and suffocated in life now. I have not gone on any vacation for last six years to travel somewhere for myself. I do not like the work i do. Its against my inner ethics and thoughts and i also do not like the field in which i am. I am 27 years old and i feel like if i do not change my life soon then i will get stuck in this for the rest of my life and i really do not want this for me. I never loved myself and never thought of myself that's why i am stuck like this. Now i do not know what to do. Many times i feel like to go somewhere else leaving everything behind but i can not do that because my family will worry for me alot if i do this. I need help, advice and guidance for my life to change.

I am sorry that you are feeling stuck , suffocated and you are working on something which is not going or having conflict with your inner ethics . I would bring your awareness that with your stuttering you got your first job and I am sure you had work hard for it .... but you got it . Similarly if you are not happy with this job try to find something else and now you have experience also . If you feel that talking to someone and making planing and strategy will help you in your journey please get in touch with me via app . I will be happy to help.

What you are facing is very crucial at this point as it is directed to your inner growth .. I would just like to stay to stay put and hold on to those thoughts as you are seeking change and change is good for a new direction in life ✨ it may sound difficult and it not at all easy to suddenly think of changing everything but if that gives you inner strength and happiness then go for it .! As regret is a very strong emotion which brings a person's happiness in the future times to shreds

Hi,
Realizing to look for a change itself a great step in moving forward. As you clearly stated that from day one you didn't like the job and forcefully completed 6 years in this profession. Need to know, which factor made you to stay in this for such a long period and what is making you to look for a job change. Knowing this will help you to deal with your inner conflicts and proceed further. Not every job requires communication and stuttering is a part and parcel of your life. Learn to accept it graciously and move forward in life.
Next Steps
Recommend to visit a career counsellor / psychologist to get a clarity about your ethical conflicts and career dilemma.

Very often it is our own self imposed shackles that make us feel ' trapped '. We fail to recognize this because of certain beliefs that we indoctrinate ourselves with. These beliefs are often based on feedback that we might have received in the past from sources that aren't exactly authentic or trustworthy.
Also, whenever we attempt to make sense of this, our emotions overwhelm us to such an extent that we unable to reason.
Forgive me for stating the obvious -Just like how you would seek medical help for a physical ailment, consulting a specialist could help you address stuttering.
Regarding figuring out what truly matters to you and resonates with you , here are a few links that could be helpful in the process:
