Hey fishes
My mental health is crippling due to going back to office space. I don't know where to post it. I will post in comments.

I'm ok with overload/extra work. I am (still) seeking remote roles as I got depressed staying in outside environments(college and work before lockdown), I end up being unproductive, self loathing, depressed person(inspite of studying in tier 1 college).

But all the remote companies I applied for, they turn me down after last CEO/HR rounds saying that my 3 months notice period is too long.

This going to office anxiety and depression vs 3 months notice period has put me in a deadlock


I'm trying to freelance so much in free- time, my health is deteriorating, although I'm giving my best, exhaustion from work leaves me less energy to freelance. And it's just because I need something to back me up when I resign with no offer in hand. Haven't slept since 2-3 weeks but I'm still ok.


I have 2 kids and my family is going through tough time, so too scared to put resignation and go through 3 months notice and seek remote work.


So now It's like triple deadlock with deteriorating health.

I only wish my office understood it and gave me remote flexibility. I can't use my mental health to get permanent remote job 🥲. "Why can't companies that openly support mental health let a colleague option to work remotely if office/city environments gonna hurt them mentally."

It's tough man. Deteriorating. I learnt skills I never imagined I would just because I wanted to remote work for my mental health and live with my family. But all these deadlocks are making my path tougher. I hope I'll go through these.


I'd honestly ask if someone can advice me now.
