What if you freelance? You still get to take advantage of the resume you’ve spent years building, but you’d be separate from the office politics. Sometimes you’re working for months, sometimes you’re off for months - and during those months off, you’re (hopefully) doing whatever creative endeavors you want.
I had this same experience. I spent a year working out intensely and eating well. Got healthy for the first time in my adult life really. Made me realize a lot of things about work, friends and family.
I left advertising and went to tech, better wlb and pay. I also started developing my side hustle into a legit income stream. You can do it… stay on the right path and focus on your health first. Everything else will flow from that
I went through it during Covid. Since then I’ve done the best work of my career. Change up your job, maybe go freelance like ACD1 said. Creative can get so bogged down, sounds like a change of (professional) scenery would do you right
