Great comments here. My advice would be similar to what others have said. Try working with people. Last year I was tutoring high school kids and it was a great experience. Working with stressed out kids was much less stressful than working with stressed out adults and it put everything into perspective. Any kind of work where you are interacting with people in a non-competitive environment (or compassionate environment) but also using your intellectual skills (Don't work at Taco Bell!). Try contracting rather than permanent work. Contracts have an end and you're not committing in the long term which allows you to take breaks to take care of your health between contracts. Focus your energy in maintaining a healthy lifestyle (exercise, eat healthy, get enough sleep, meditate). Do as much as possible to keep your thoughts out there (talking and writing) rather than letting your throughts eat you alive. You're not alone, good luck!
