160. Work Sucks, I Know...

Getting Old Quickly

In Episode 160, Billy Donnelly talks about his miserable work situation and how feeling useless in his current role has been having an overall negative impact on his mental health over the last several weeks. He discusses our innate need to feel productive and contribute meaningfully to society, and how when it feels like that has been taken away from us, we grow frustrated -- and depression can set in. He talks about our desires to be seen and how, in a work environment, that means allowing you the space to maximize your potential and display your talents, skills, and abilities. We don't want to feel like our time is being wasted, and when it is, it's hard to shake loose from.
