I've been separated for about a year and we're completing the divorce work right now. When we first separated I was hit with all the symptoms of major depression. It has mainly been controlled with Wellbutrin and Citalopram, but lately I've been feeling some of the physical symptoms coming back.

Right now I'm stressed about work. I've been feeling more and more out of my depth in my job the last few years, but as I've earned more each year my wife earned less. The youngest of our three kids entered first grade this year so taking care of them (and probably the economy) made it increasingly difficult for my wife to find freelance work.

I think I'm stressed-out because I couldn't look for work elsewhere without risking a large decrease in pay, but I can't consider that with three kids, mortgage, rent, etc. My depression has certainly affected my job performance, and I'm having a hard time getting back in the good graces of my managers. I feel like I can't prove I'm doing better except by avoiding mistakes that draw notice, but if I can't do anything to draw positive attention I'll never be able to improve my image with them.

Tomorrow I have a meeting with my review manager and I already know I dropped the ball on requesting feedback in our hr system. I put it off because I was feeling discouraged about a couple of projects and so I put off asking for feedback. Now I've missed a deadline about asking for feedback so I've drawn further negative attention from my review manager and it will draw other attention from my coworkers when I have to ask for late feedback.

I don't have any specific questions, I just wanted to get this off my chest.
