I knew it was going to wear me off...
I was going from one disappointment to another, yet still trying to find opportunities to practice my passion (photography) and meeting more persons.
My job is becoming more and more taxing, because we need to make more money, and it requies an amount of enthusiasm I don't have.
I was worried, I knew I couldn't stand it. And in fact, in the last 2 days simple disappointment has shifted to cosmic sense of death. It is HIM (or HER), I know it all too well. Know I hope it will be brief, while i nevertheless keep trying to reach out to meeting people and finding motivation in job.

But it is hard, oh dammit...

Sorry things aren't going well for you.
Photography is a very artistic, emotional profession. The stress must be tremendous. Each disappointment compounded by the depression.

Maybe by posting here you will be able to lighten some of you discomfort.

How's it going Stefano? Nasty feeling needing to work harder, and feeling yourself going in the opposite direction. Keep looking after yourself, even though you have to work hard. If it's at all possible do some of those things we're meant to do - getting some time to relax, switch off, exercise, meditate. I know it can be added stress to try to do these and work, but if it's possible I think it would help.

Soidhonia, how strange that I had just called both my T and my pdoc to say that everything was almost fine. Now I called again to correct my previous statement. I'll see my T thursday. This time I have a good idea about what made me depressed, even if depression feels always so cosmic that relating it to life facts seem just a rational exercise.

Debbie, the bad problem here is that I have to pour all these energies in a job that doesn't reward me emotionally. Indeed, I am extremely successful, customers come in searching for me for difficult tasks. But that brings only money. And I can't buy feelgood packs with money. If this would not sustain my family... I would gladly leave and get something more meaningful for me.

And Kerry, your hug is most appreciated and gladly returned stress and and frustration brings depression

Well, reading you posts and replying was the best part of the day. I can't thank you enough stress and and frustration brings depression
