So I'm over 40 and like everyone, the last year and a half have been a lot. Kids at home 24/7 and job stress. As an escape, like a lot of people here, I've been doing tons of reading about FIRE and how people that have left their jobs and retired or semi-retired. My problem is that I know I have about 2 to 4 years left of full-time work and I'm really suffering from burnout right now. I just started a new position and I'm dreading going into the office in September and every day I feel like I've been obsessed with trying to FIRE now even though the numbers don't work yet.
I'm trying not to be ungrateful. My new j** is actually not that bad and my last company was way worse. I just am struggling right now to get into a good mental state to work for these next couple of years.
