Can too much stress lead to depression

[dynamictiger]

Hi

I have a high pressure job. It has always been that way. I would like to give details but I work in a specialised field and this is a public forum. Suffice to say if the comapny built rocket ships I would be the specialist responsible for the landing gear only, however I would include everything to do with the landing gear from design to installation in whatever field of speciality was required.

For the last 25 or so years I have been building business' from scratch. That is I dream up a concept and make it reality, usually in short order.

However I am so specialised I cannot get help easily. Sure the physical parts of the job can be farmed out to others like raising an order. However design aspects, makingup quotes and so on can't easily be farmed out.

Recently my in laws (whom I was very close too) passed away.

I have started to feel burnt out as I understand it. In looking at the sitess on burn out they advise me to leave and get another job. Good idea. Not practical. A bit like asking a left shoe heel designer to find another job. The job I do either won't be advertised or if it is maybe once every 13 or so years.

What can I practically do?

Yes I agree with you too much stress leads to depression. Yoga is one of the best exercise to get rid from the depression. Every one can perform this exercise easily.

I can understand your feeling. However my advice would be to try to take a break from your job go for a vacation and when you come try reduce your work burden.
