I lived in Japan and understand what you're talking about. Never started a
company like you or brandelune but I have done endless piles of bank paperwork
and software tech support in Japanese. Message me directly if you want to talk
more, but I would apply for a software job in your home country and if you
land it then move out of Japan. If the software applications don't land you
anything then I would stay in Japan as an English teacher and use your
software knowledge to connect you with higher paying clients like traveling
software engineers or software company managers.

> I have honestly thought about suicide, or just fleeing the country.

Make sure to tell your closest friend about this. There's no shame at all in
anything that you've tried so far. And your life is worth _way_ more than
corporate success in a country that drowns itself in bureaucratic paperwork.

Just so that you see it again: Suicide as a fix for this situation is
ridiculous. (Please note, I'm not saying that _you_ are ridiculous for feeling
this way)

Its a perception error like considering amputation for a nasty paper cut. Your
sense of scale is just a little muddled right now. If you find yourself
seriously considering this, find someone you trust and talk about this so they
can help you get some perspective.

Crashing a business isn't "a life of eternal shame" bad. Its "laugh with
buddies at a bar later" bad.
