There will come a point in every ones life where that career just becomes a job. Some folks are lucky and walk away with millions, some folks have to keep going and grind it out.
There are options to consider. Take the Scott Adams approach he wrote about in his Dilbert books. He used his time at a job he hated to pursue his own endeavor. Went through a very funny explanation about how his employer was supplying his office space, phone, computer, stationary supplies and the rest of it to run his own business, all for free. Have you considered finding a hobby or starting a side project you can pursue while at work? It may help make your job more tolerable.
But if it's the actual work itself you don't like, why not train in something more interesting? Perhaps a network admin, security specialist, AWS Guru, etc. Plenty of certs and paths you can take to get out of your current Hell.
Whatever you do, don't quit until you have a solid option. Nothing like making a rainy day for yourself.
Hope you find your way....
