You mentioned that you can't see a bright future, and it sounds like you're carrying a lot of hopelessness right now - would that be fair to say? The path ahead feels bleak or uncertain, and it's hard to know exactly what or who you can hold onto.
From what you've written here, I'm also getting the sense you can feel powerless sometimes - is that right? You said that the issues you're struggling with feel real, tangible, and 'out-there' struggles, such as society's beauty standards here in the UK, or the job market. And I can imagine that feeling overwhelming - trying to find and hold onto hope in the midst of these bigger systems or circumstances. I get the sense too that you feel terribly uncared for and disregarded by many of the people you interact with day-to-day, and that sounds so lonely right now.
Can I ask, are you considering trying to end your life at the moment? And how are you practically keeping safe?
I also wonder, what do you feel you might need to happen or shift or change in your life in order for the future to feel even 5% brighter?

You mentioned that you're craving change, and specifically, you want to get out of your workplace. It feels so positive that you're naming this for yourself. If you were to break that next-step down into smaller pieces, what do you think are some of the first actions you could take to begin getting out of that workplace?
What kind of support might you need while taking these steps, maybe from your therapist, from us here, from yourself?
We're rooting for you every bit of the way, and reaching that point where we say, 'okay, I want things to change. I need it now', is a huge, huge step.
@bignosegirly0 I know you might feel hopeless now but it will get better, I promise. You're worthy, the world is much better place with you in it, you have a right to happiness. Everything might feel a bit harsh but you're valued here as community members, it hurts seeing you struggle like this. Please reach out, call 999 if you ever feel unsafe and always remember you're worthy, you matter no matter what, I get its hard but its true you're definitely worthy, you're wanted and needed.
