I’m working 60-70 hours a week in a very miserable environment right now, the work load is insane, the pay is very little, and the personalities I work with are all vicious.

Unfortunately leaving isn’t an option, at least for now. I don’t want to dwell on it but I’m a refugee with little options rn

How can I stop or at least minimise the amount of misery seeping into other areas of my life due to my job? I feel like I can’t even enjoy any of my hobbies anymore, even meeting friends doesn’t bring me any joy anymore.

I want to build up my mental resilience a little bit and make work affect me less emotionally, any tips?
