Busy season was effectively “designed” to make you depressed. You don’t see the sun, don’t see your friends and family, are constantly stressed, don’t get enough sleep, eat crappy take-out/delivery every day, don’t have time to exercise, constantly have to deal with clients who assume you’re stupid or out to get them, etc etc. My breaking point was a 6-month busy season after which I finally decided I couldn’t keep doing it to myself for the sake of my mental health, my physical health, and my relationships, and I’ve never looked back.
