Masochism is a key psychoanalytic concept
One form is victim entitlement—insistence one is entitled to special compensation in proportion to suffering & victimhood. Thus the need *to amplify suffering* in all ways
Without treatment, suffering & victimhood becomes a way of life

The concept is not blaming. It is a question of how one can be responsible for creating a meaningful life despite the obscenities of living they find themselves in, out of their control. Only affirming a lack of autonomy is going to lead to more anxiety and depression.

I quit my teaching job and now make more bartending for 15 less hours week. Also I get blamed for way way less and get told thank you way way more. No lesson plans or grading papers.
Remember this when people ask about the teacher shortage.
