    Been there, consider a new job. I was depressed this time last year until redundancies came up at work, now i work very slightly less hours closer to home for less money and I’m not feeling like you anymore.

      Yeah, I agree.

      It’s easy to feel like it’s not that bad because you’re in the swing of things and keeping your head above water, and weeks turn into months, but it’s not sustainable.

      A new job can make a world of difference, it certainly did for me after a break between my old one, but it’s not always so simple and making the change can seem like a momentous task when you’re just about keeping on top of everything else.

      Deffo try and look into it if you can.

        Agreed. I was in that job for 16 years, and it took taking time off with mental health before I got any kind of confidence to do it and when it came up I had a week of self doubt before volunteering for redundancy.

        That said, 100 times better mentally now
