I think I’m logging off after ER visit

This is probably going to sound ridiculous but I ended up in the ER and found out I have an apparent pelvic floor strain because I held my piss for almost 4hrs.

Was slammed and kept telling myself I would go in a few minutes and then something else would come up. A few days later I’m sitting in the ER sitting there thinking genuinrly what the actual fuck am I doing.

Somewhere along the way I got so caught up in not wanting to leave the desk or miss something that holding my piss for 4 hours seemed like the reasonable decision.

Now it hurts to have sex. Woke up with morning wood the other day and it fucking killed. I’m 29 years old and somehow managed to hurt my dick because I was too worried about leaving my desk to go to the fucking bathroom.

I’ve made money. Can afford pretty much everything I actually need and a lot of shit I don’t.

Idk what more is supposed to do at this point. Like I genuinely don’t know what the number is. I used to have one. Then you get closer to it and it changes.

I was sitting in the ER thinking about that. Like I held my piss for four fucking hours for what exactly?

I really wish this was a joke or satire fucking brutal out here.

After not getting really sick for 3 years even after spending my weekends at frat parties, my body was shutting down from stress during banking. Months long infection and glucose issues (before you people try calling me fat I’m near an underweight BMI) from stress… Not worth it…

 

Consider this an epiphany. These types of jobs will eat up all your time. There is no real "vacation" even at the senior level. You can come back and boast about some amazing trip you took with family but the family knows everyday you had some dumb call to join and at night you are trying to email or apologize to someone bc "you are overseas currently." 

Get a decent nest egg and go find something that doesnt suck on a daily basis (even weekends).  

 

What do you define as a decent nest egg? Hard to know when to let go
