I tend to overwork myself and it’s really taking a toll on my mental well-being. I want to learn a lot and prove myself to my superiors so that they recognize me/see value. Now my work has a sense of dread to it. I watched my parents be workaholics growing up, so it’s all I know. I’m also goal-oriented and driven, so achieving a lot scratches that itch for me. But, it’s making me want to quit cause I’m burned out and depressed….im not sure what to do. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I was on medication way before I had a child. The medication controlled it very well. Post child, it has been really tough. I added wellbutrin and that had helped a bit. But when part of the problem is exhaustion, meds can't fix that.

Have you looked into therapists who are doing video appointments right now? It’s not ideal, but maybe you can find someone more easily that way. Hang in there and keep trying to find someone. It gets better with help.
Can you go to your primary care provider and ask for a referral to a psychiatrist to speed up the process maybe ? You are not alone in your depression.
