Exploring the Depths: Navigating Depression in the Artistic Realm
Depression is a silent visitor that can touch the lives of individuals across various professions, including artists and writers. The creative journey, often romanticized for its passion and expression, can also be marked by the shadows of mental health struggles.
Artists and writers, driven by a heightened sensitivity to the world around them, may find themselves particularly susceptible to the…
You have been taught that hard work pays off. True, yet being overworked shows that it creates way more harm. Working effectively and wisely will pay off.
What happened to the good old days when we hunted, farmed, gathered, and fish for our food instead of being overworked? Long gone are the good old days. Presently, we live in a society that is governed by a man’s labor. Some of us work like slaves, yet we reap no joy. While others put in what is required and reap all the pleasures that life has to offer.
I have known that life. To toil years after years without improvement or maturity. Working hard and long hours isn’t the issue. Laboring at a job that brings no joy or purpose is. If you love what you do, then can that really be called work? It is easy to put in 100 hours a week doing something that gives you passion and happiness. It is difficult to put in 30 hours a week doing something that brings pure misery and agony.
This guide on overworked, overwhelmed, and overstress shall stress the utmost importance of how not to fall prey to what 95% of us are doing. What’s your favorite thing to do in the world? Imagine getting pay while doing that. Let me show (tell) you how.

Doctor In Australia Quits Her Surgeon Dream Career Sighting Being Overworked And Toxic Surgical Environment Down Under
An aspiring reconstructive surgeon who abandoned her dream after becoming burnt out by “untenable” working hours in Sydney has called out Australia’s “toxic surgical environment”.
Dr Yumiko Kadota spent six weeks in hospital with insomnia late last year and claimed she was “barely able to speak or move” after resigning from her position as a registrar and crashing her car on the way home.
In my current life I am having trouble finding balance. I like to think I am a very hard working person, and a very steady working person. Sometimes I overdrive. But I generally have a good sense of work and play and let myself relax as much as I make myself work hard.
As of recently I have had a lapse. I have been what I deem as lazy for about a week now- choosing to hold up in my room, and "twiddle" rather than get things done. I have not been guilting myself because I truly deserved a rest after basically working 8 hour days for a month straight. But I seem to not be cracking out of the cycle. I needed the recoup, but this is starting to get stupid by my standards.
This has led me to shirking things that really need to get off my to-do list. I am unsure if it is my fear of change- mostly because I am experiencing a large change in my life. Either way I am fish tailing between responsible and irresponsible with what I need to get done. I think I let some of my fire burn out, and I need more tinder. I guess its alright as long as I am aware of it. But I need to snap out of it.
.... basically I just needed somewhere to rationally vent. Thanks for reading if you did. :)
