For the past month, my depression has been in full swing and it’s been affecting my productivity and goals at work. This past week, my anxiety has been very hard to control due to major stress in my life and my only relief is taking a walk outside or restructuring my thoughts to calm myself down. I can’t stop the crying and try my best to hide it.
I am one of the top performers on my team and I haven’t been spot on with my work lately. I work in a corporate office and don’t know whether I should bring it to HR or just go directly to my boss. He and I have a good rapport and he is very open to any concerns of his employees. I want to take the initiative and make him aware that my overall performance is lacking because I don’t want our numbers to slip. My only hesitation is whether I should even talk about my personal life because I have a strong belief it should not interfere with professional environments. How and should I address it?
