[quote=Anonymous]I always feel better when I am applying and interviewing. It feels like I am taking action. And, after an interview I often feel better about my current job because the alternative wasn't as attractive as I imagined. Long-term, if the job is really not a good fit then you have to leave. You can do some thought experiments about your finances, location, spouse job, etc. to see what that would take. I have twice left for pay cuts in order to get into a better situation. But I have to say ... it jumped out at me that your OP was all about what other people aren't doing for you: they aren't your champions, they aren't advocating. And they are overlooking you, they are humiliating you. That's very other-focused. You may benefit from some self-work and therapy to help your feelings of agency and to manage your expectations around work. For example, it is nice to have a champion at work, but pretty rare: most of us do without. Maybe something to think about.[/quote]
