Hello there. Life is a struggle, so don’t feel bad if you feel like it’s a constant battle. Like you, I’ve been trying to find for years some sort of peace that never arrives. But I think there are ways to cope. Here are some of the things I try in my personal quest: 1) Stay inspired: go back to the basics and remember why you liked this business in the first place, maybe it’s the artistic side of it, or the possibility to work on diverse projects? 2) Keep good care of yourself. Go for a daily walk, disconnect from the grind. 3) Eat healthier. Sleep enough hours. Remember that our mental health is deeply interconnected with the wellbeing of our bodies. 4) Keep looking for a plan B if you feel advertising is not what you want. I know that I won’t find happiness in this business but I find comfort in knowing that with the money I make I can support my family and myself. So there’s an ulterior motivation that goes beyond the job. Hope this helps. Keep strong, you’re not alone.
I tell myself everyday on this side of the dirt is a good day. Because smelling the roses is a damn sight better than pushing up daisies just to get a little elbow room..
