It's a cold world but your dreams are bath warm. So take at LEAST an hour out of your day to daydream about something that stretches the limits of your reality. Like . . . .
Opening up a creamery in Iceland. Or playing hide and seek with friends in the Dolomites. Right now I daydream about opening up a late night cafe open from 10pm to 6 am, where you can buy books and use free wi-fi and play some arcade games.

like going to sweden or iceland on a solo trip in the dead of winter where the sun rises late and sets early, and you’re jet lagged and you have no idea what time it is, you just sleep when you sleep and wake up when you wake up and go to a coffee shop and have a little piece of cake and put on all the clothes you can because it’s snowing and take your book with you everywhere across the city as you wander and when coffee shops aren’t open you make tea and watch movies in bed and write in your journal and you’re like a liquid floating through time and space, completely untethered to anything and anyway i’ve never beaten that high

get up early, get out the house, and spend your day in tranquil solitude doing your ideal activities. reflect on your past year/decade/life and let yourself dream about what your future could be within the comfort of your favorite place. can be as structured and regimented or free and loose as you prefer, but if you do anything with friends and family have a lowkey way to end the day with them, no pressure for gifts or anything if that’s not your style, maybe just meet up for a dinner somewhere. share what you’ve discovered during your day and reminisce about the times you all have shared. have your family tell an embarrassing story about you in front of your friends

dreaming about the house i'd have, how many meals per day i'd eat outside, spending the holidays in a different part every year, the clothes i'd buy, but mainly about all the free time i'd have. These fantasies keep me going, the working man's fuel!

Don't act immediately upon the desire to do something life altering like chopping off our hair, getting bangs, or a tattoo, or faking your death!
Wait 30 days. Is the temptation still there? If no, then you've saved yourself some trouble. If yes, the obviously it's a Canon event and you have to 🤷🏾♀️

Idk if you mean hatred of your like material conditions or hatred of yourself but both were mixed together for me.
I had no idea I hated my life so much until I had to sit back last year and realize a lot of the dumb decisions I made that ruined my life as I knew it were . . . More rooted in hatred than I realized. I mean, yeah economic factors and capitalist bullshit was also a major factor but boy I could have avoided a quarter of the pain I endured if I'd just not hated myself so fucking bad.
So there I was, moved back into my childhood home with my sorta toxic family, no job, no prospects on the horizon. Everything I told myself I'd end up being because I fulfilled my own prophecy in an attempt to be someone I didn't even think I deserved to be. And I couldn't change the economy, and I couldn't change the past. But I could change me. I could appreciate what I still had left after spiraling, and appreciate the chance to grow again in the future. Started a Substack, got a hobby, learned to enjoy reading books again, etc.
So it's gonna take a lot of unflinching introspection, maybe Journaling if you're into that, and learning what your bad coping methods are so you can slowly change it . . . But it can be done. You just gotta change one little habit st a time. And it might take longer than you want, but it'll feel better when you do.

Even just once in your life. You got a Fandom you absolutely adore, it keeps you going and fills your life with something positive and meaningful? Give writing for it a try! Even just a 500 word dribble you plop on to Tumblr and never touch again. It's quite nice.
