So, I am new to the community (I sought it out after years of feeling like no one in my personal life can really relate) and I'm posting because I've been struggling lately.

I've been at the same low-paying job for about 6 years now and have pretty much capped out in regards to promotions and raises. The job has perks. It relates to my skill set (I do voiceover and edit audio) and my bosses are fairly accommodating when it comes to my schedule and personal needs, which is great. That said, I spent over 18 months working from home and realized how much it improved my quality of life. I was managing stress better, I was able to engage and enjoy hobbies, I had quit smoking, and I was enjoying a healthy diet. Most importantly, my work had improved. When the team came back to the office, it's like my soul jumped off a cliff. After over a year of adjusting to a new routine, returning felt like a massive step back.  

I can barely get out of bed in the morning, I'm angry/upset all day, and I'm triggered by the smallest conflict. I've asked my bosses about potentially returning to my WFH schedule, but they have refused, citing company policy.

I've not taken the step of requesting reasonable accommodation under the ADA, but have gone so far as to write up the letter. 

I guess my question is, what's next for me? Do I go the route of trying to stick it out here, knowing that the money is barely enough to get by, or do I try to start new somewhere else despite the fear of not being able to find another that will tolerate my highs and lows?

This is a lot, I know, and I think what I am hoping for is insight from others that may have experienced something similar.

Thanks so much. Have a fantastic day wherever you are.
