a work question

if a person felt his work was really a calling ... that he could do the job perfectly and better than any of his coworkers ... if he felt he was really being an advcate for his customers ... fighting his own co on there behalf ... if any failure or perceived failure was grounds for depression ... but sucess's caused great euphoria ... could verbally joust on the job and be the life of everyone's circle ... but be withdrawn away from work ... having his only social contacts at work ... actually worrying about what was happening while not at work ... not about work but what he was not able to be helpful ... because others were just not up to his level of perfection ... not caring about over time but working off the clock for free because he was so needed ... being all things to all women at work, (they want him) ...

the next week (weeks), being so depressed and such a failure he needs meds just to face the day ...

and over and over ....

when (1) serious self perceived failure caused a complete breakdown ...

question ... does that sound healthy ... is that a bp issue or just a personally flaw ... maybe seeking love ... a sense of purpose ... maybe just f**ked up ... (dxed as emotionally neglected)
maybe all the above ... maybe feeling so good at the moment he can't stop writing at 1am ...maybe having no one else to talk too ...

ps: he was the same in religious work until that was ended .... (sword of the lord , lol)
ps2: not really need an answer (but fine if you want to comment) ...

((. his korean obsession is fading a little (a lot) ,))

just asking for a friend ....

I don't have the answer, but you've got a friend in me.

Although maybe never all at once, I have experienced a little of all of that at various times in various places throughout my life, and the challenge has ultimately been in learning what is truly appropriate even when there might not be anything or anyone capable of actually stopping me from doing one thing or another. For example:

If he wants to run and manage the company differently, he first needs to be its owner.

Being liked by everyone is fine, but that is not what he was hired to do.

If the employer is not demanding all-time perfection, then he is back to trying to write his own job description.

Same answer in relation to the job descriptions of others.

Truly so, or only because of the above?

See response # 2.

Dealing with the above would likely be helpful there.
