Coping with depression caused by work?

[Paisleegreen]

Hi--I'm glad that you are getting opportunities elsewhere. I understand what you have been going through. I was lucky to hang in at one job to cross over in another department and location with less hours and was able to keep my health insurance. This was years ago, I still had competition like atmosphere at the new job, but I was soon able to leave it when I had my baby. Then I went back to college after that.

It was quite the blessing as this baby had complications and required a C-section, not what I was expecting so between my husband's job and my parttime my son's delivery was 100% covered.

Also is that time period everyone smoked in the work place and I didn't. It was so nice to leave this environment and then come back to a a new career where state laws had made so noone could smoke in the workplace. They had their designated areas.

Good luck in your new adventure!
