I'm retired, but understand the problems that can come with middle management; it's sometimes like having your head between a rock & a hard place. As far as your mood goes, I'm right there with you. I'm feeling depressed, isolated, & thoughts of SI are bouncing around my head. SH seems counter-productive to me, though. I know it gives some people relief from inner pain, but I don't like wearing my pain on my sleeve for others to see. I had one instance of SH when I was a teen & am still embarrassed by the scars on my arm. I hope you feel better...& in any event you're not alone in feeling depressed. Hang in there. BTW...I live in Michigan. Ohio State sucks!
