Back in a tough place

its been a while since i last posted but anyway hope everyone is doing well.

Feel like my life is slowly going back to sh*t. last eight or so months i have been working in retail. for about 6 of those, i was team leader. the problem was i wasnt signed off as one. now few days ago my manager has told me there is no way i will get promoted. he basically used me till he found poeple that he liked, even though they dont know as much as me.

so now im looking for a new job while working somewhere that i know no one gives a sh*t about me. Feel used, have broken sleep, keep worrying about my job security.

feel i could relapse anytime soon. sometimes felt like crying but cant, have this horrible feeling most of the day.

im worried about my MH and my job security, i dont want to fail, but im beginning to question myself why im even trying.

got nowhere to talk, work side i have but mental health side still told noone.

feel like sh*t. :frowning:

Several things.
It is not good to work under a boss.
It is simply not good.
try to be in a situation that you don’t work under a boss, essentially try to start a business.
In the future there will be economic equality so your problem will get solved cause most people work for the paycheck.
Good luck.
A somewhat better alternative is a situation where you nominally have a boss but you are not in close contact
with her/him day-to- day, or else the boss is very nice and egalitarian.
I don’t think that if the boss doesn’t want to promote you it’s bad, it is difficult to get a promotion.

I’ve been there and it’s rough. Just keep looking for that next job. There’s always something to look forward to
