That’s a really tough question…

Is it even worth it? I really hate my job but need the money.

Need the money? If you need it, then that basically settles it. You can’t leave your current job if you need the money.

However, the question is moreso if you actually need it. Have you considered downsizing your apartment/wherever you live? Have you considered cutting costs here or there (subscriptions, for example)?

One thing’s for sure: your mental health is invaluable. You can’t afford to have a mental breakdown, and you don’t deserve to live a miserable life.

See if you can restructure your finances to fit the 81k salary, because a low-stress job like that is surely much better than the hellscape you seem to be navigating currently.

One thing to add: don’t stop looking for other opportunities. Maybe this one isn’t ideal because you may need to cut costs, but there could be something even better out there! Don’t stop looking for the perfect opportunity for you.

Just my opinion, of course.
