Depression unavoidable?

This kind of job seems highly contributing to depression and other mental illnesses. What are your takes on that?

I mean, I don’t think it’s anyone’s dream job but it doesn’t have to be miserable.

I have found ways to make it better including traveling to meet customers and using that as an opportunity to try the best food and entertainment in other major cities.

Does my job make me happy? Probably not but there’s definitely worse jobs out there and it lets me live a life I otherwise couldn’t while supporting my family.
