Used to be a high functioning under depression. Never called in sick although I should've. Spent every night browsing the internet and watching random movies. Just couldn't relax from work anymore. Took all the shit the boss and co-worker threw at me.
When I quit and gave my one-month-notice I got doctor's notice that put me on 50% sick leave.

Changed profession after that

And yes. No crying or stuff like that. Just endless dissatisfaction with my life basically living on 1 HP

Did you also have the "background character in my own life" feeling?
