I feel as though I haven't had a proper break since I started school at age 6 and that I never will. I'm going to start year nine next week and even though I'm on Summer break I can't enjoy it as it's filled with Christmas, New Year's and an annual out of state holiday week. 

I'm introverted with social anxiety and all socializing during my longest 'break' is filled with stress. Especially this year with house work. 

I won't get a proper mental break till I retire as immediately after school (even during with a part time job I'm getting soon) I'll go to work. Why is society built to constantly work from age 5/6 till you die
