My 35 year old cousin. She has never worked or gone to school past 9 th grade. She lives with her parents and sleeps all day. Other then the stimulus checks I don’t think she has ever had money that was 100% hers. Everything she eats, wears, uses, owns was provided for her and she smokes a pack a day. She could work at her dads small business but she won’t so he hires others instead.

Troll.


PP. What?


Post makes no sense. What’s a responsible job? Are there irresponsible jobs? And how do you know what your potential is?

Definitely fat babies. The endless eating, peeing, pooping, need to be carried around...

My husband, hands down. He hasn't held a job in years and only wants to work on his hobbies and do odd jobs for money, but won't help out around the house and barely helps with the kids. He used to out earn me by at least double, but he says he's done with working. He's not even 40 yet. He doesn't seem depressed. He does nothing all day while I work, usually simultaneously helping my youngest with online school, take kids to soccer, then make dinner, etc, put kids to bed, then he wants sex, and then gets upset with me because I'm not enthusiastic enough during it. I hate to have to divorce, but looks like I'm going to need to for my own sanity.

I don’t think that is necessarily spoiled and lazy. I don’t think I have worked to my fullest potential in my career. But that’s because I have other interests and don’t desire to do the work at my job that it would take to excel. I am pretty well rounded when it comes to volunteer work, hobbies, family and my job. And I pull my weight in the family. I think I would hate my life if I focused more on career.

A friend's wife. She quit working when they got engaged 8 years ago, but they're not wealthy and her husband is still paying back student loans. She says she doesn't feel good enough to work, but she feels well enough to go out drinking and go on ski vacations.

My mother. She claims she is "shaky" in the mornings and can't get out of bed and has my father bringing her breakfast in bed on a tray each morning. He works full time. She has not worked full time since the 80's.

If I go to visit (which happens less than once a year), and notice the kitchen floor needs to be swept, when I am cleaning up after a meal and go to sweep, my mother will watch and then point "You missed a spot." Meanwhile she hasn't swept her own kitchen floors in over a decade. Why can't she just say thank you?

She likes to claim to be unwell enough to do things in order to get others to get them to do said things, and then will complain about how they did it.

"Spoiled" people tend not to be aware of the impact of their behavior on others. Plus, people can sometimes be the most harsh judges of themselves, so it might not necessarily be true.

Instead of criticizing yourself with negative labels, why not focus on what you need to do or do differently? I recommend prioritizing making sure that your behavior isn't negatively affecting others' or your well-being (most importantly health) or finances. Once that is taken care of, you can work on the other stuff.

If you feel comfortable sharing more about aspects of your behavior that you'd like to change, people can give more helpful, specific advice.

Also, if you have trouble getting stuff done, have you ruled out the possibility of a health issue? It could be a condition causing fatigue, depression, ADHD, etc. Symptoms of depression and ADHD can sometimes look like laziness to people who don't know what's going on.

Good luck!


OP. Thanks, I do have depression and ADHD but the world does not really care about this as it only comes across as so many excuses. It limits my life tremendously, but it is no comfort knowing that.

Not negatively affecting others is a must, actually. You have a responsibility to yourself, too.
