Right, but only in the sense that depression and anxiety aren't "bad", they're just "pain signals".
You get to find a job you do want and your employer gets to find somebody who wants to do your job more than you do.
As if the root problem is that you just don't want to really do your job. (As opposed to the far more likely: you absolutely did when you started out -- until the employer started getting in the way. And telling you to take more yoga classes as a way of coping).

Fortunately, however -- once you have enough observational data with these things (so as to be able to make a balanced assessment about them) -- it becomes perfectly reasonable to come to the conclusion that "It isn't me, it's them." Cause you know, sometimes it just is.
