What should I do if I'm depressed at work?

If you're depressed at work, you should perhaps take a quick pause to relax, take a cup of tea talk with a coworker. Think about what is making you feel this way, if it's really bothering you, u shoul maybe take the day off. And do something that will make fell better.

It sounds like to me, you are depressed at work. I think you should figure out what is depressing you from work and try and discuss it with someone close to you.

Working is the most frequent thing a person does. You have to ask yourself; are you depressed at work because of what you're doing? If so you are the only person who can break that cycle and find something that you're passionate about. Alternatively it could be minor problems that you're having about work and addressing them sooner rather than later will benefit your mental health massively. I'd suggest identifying the problem first. Hope this helps in any way!

Maybe buy yourself a treat for after work, to give yourself something to look forward to when you get home. This will help you feel more positive, and help you remember that there are good things to look forward too.

If you feel comfortable talking to a manager or supervisor, it may be worth having a private conversation about your struggles. Are there any simple adjustments that they could make that would make things a little easier for you? Having a friend to confide in at work can also help you cope day to day. When I struggled I had a friend send me silly pictures to make me smile. Find something small that helps you and try to incorporate it into your day. Longer term, therapy can help to deal with the issues underlying the depression. From personal experience, if work is actually causing your depression, it's worth looking into moving departments or even finding a whole new environment that you feel happier in.

If work is what is causing you to be depressed try and remove yourself from the situation, have a think and see what your true passion is in life and try and harness this and reflect that in a new possible job opportunity, you are strong for identifying that you are feeling depressed at work that is the first step, the second is working on you and making sure you are happy and healthy and I recommend that you observe the negative energy around you and explore how you can use this to start fresh and really make a go of things!

Take a moment for yourself, breathe in and breathe out. Try to center yourself by thinking positively and finding exercises that help you relax and go back to that positive and productive mindset. Having a positive mindset with a "can do" attitude increases productivity in the workplace but also overall approach to an overwhelming situation. Doing so also increases the chances of finishing a task and focusing on the positive. This results in feeling less depressed while improving the mental mindset and wellbeing not just in the workplace but in everyday life. Focusing on the positive things in life outweighs the negative thoughts.
