You’ve received a lot of good advice in this thread about lifestyle and mental health changes. However, there’s a big warning sign in your post that something else is going on:
> I already stopped caring about my work. But my personality finds it difficult to ignore things that are wrong. Sometimes I look at other colleagues communication with others and it affects me also, I see so much wrong but I can't do anything about it
This is a red flag that the issue isn’t actually your work. If you’re getting worked up by reading other people talking about work that isn’t related to yourself, something else is going on.
You shouldn’t be losing sleep and getting depressed because you aren’t in control of what other people are doing on other projects. You must learn to focus on your work.
Being too controlling of what others are doing around you is a serious problem. No company is going to encourage or enable this behavior, especially when you’ve already given up caring about your own work as you said. In fact, this is something that managers have to proactively shut down or even manage out of the company: It’s no good to have busybodies who can’t care about their own work but won’t stop interfering with other people doing their work. It’s a net negative for everyone involved, and net negative people tend to get fired eventually (rightly so) for the health of the team.
You need to learn to focus on your work and ignore what other people are doing. Acknowledge that you have a major control problem that needs to be addressed.
