I have never had a job that improved my mental health, not once. And I am actually very privileged in general. Jobs have been net negative for my health, even with regular therapy.
I have but only for the length of the initial honeymoon period. Once the new and shiny wears off, every job has been a net drag on my mental well-being or at best- inconsequential to my overall mental health.
In hindsight, had I stuck out the ones that felt inconsequential for a little longer, then I’m sure those would have been a drag as well

having a job improved my mental health compared to not having one and worrying about money.
Haven’t had an income for 16 months and it’s wrecking my shit, my mental health is in a perpetual state of decline
Volunteering in the community may help with that.
