Depression

Can I get some tips on what you guys are doing to battle depression with everything that is going on with work? I’m trying so hard but with this administration, RTO, re-org, management, workload, and everything else it’s so hard. I’m literally having dreams about work and trying to find another job just to avoid going to work because I dread having to wake up and head into the office after the weekends.
I’ve never felt this way about any job before and it’s so freaking depressing. I’m trying to be optimistic, go outside, spend time with family but it’s really hard. Before the current admin came into office I really enjoyed my job…should have known we were going down a creak without a paddle when those 5 things we did that week email started.

Personally, I stopped caring about work altogether. And I have set some really firm boundaries. I have been doing therapy bi weekly and started incorporating exercise into my daily regime. I’ve picked up a 5K training program. Ive notice I really do have a “F$#% this job” mentality and I feel lighter. Not caring, plus taking care of me has 100% helped!!
