I feel like I have hit the point of no return when it comes to mental health at work and the hours are bad, but the people make it worse. Has anyone gotten over this point?

I got over this when I got my CPA and switched jobs, and it was a good feeling to move on. Your situation is temporary, it may just take some time to get past it. Update your resume regularly, try to accomplish as many goals as you can and you can eventually find a better fit. Good luck!

Sometimes during busy season I leave early on a day and will work from home. Meditation, healthy diet, exercise and medication work. There is a point when you need to be your priority and let your work speak for itself.

I wanted to get your thoughts on the following:
1. Health Insurance for your parents (assuming they are 60+)
2. Term life options for myself (under 30)

I recently went through a medical family emergency and realised how important insurance is. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
