Is my job making me depressed?

David S.

I hate my job. So much. All I do is sit at a desk and click buttons (I do data entry). There are times when I can hardly get myself out of bed to go to this mind-numbing job. Once I get there, all I think about is how much I hate it and count down the hours until I can go home. Is this normal? I feel like it is messing with my mood so much and I can't take it anymore. I want to quit but I need the money.

    Job depression is real and serious. If you are not happy in your job, then you should actively seek ways to improve the workplace environment, or if that is not possible then yes, you should start seeking other jobs that might make you happier. Try listening to music or audiobooks at work. Suggest more company social events to give you something to look forward to. Or even look for opportunities outside the requirements of the job that you might enjoy doing for your company, both your boss and you might be better for it. Hope it gets better!
