Burnout and Depression Among IT Workers?

Cultural Sublimation asks: "All of us working in IT seem to be especially prone to problems like burnout and depression. Could part of the reason be directly related to our professions? Recently, there have been a number of interesting features on Kuro5hin which have focused precisely on this issue. From people claiming that " The Internet Is Driving Me Crazy", to an in-depth two-part series trying to demystify depression, the message is that too much information might be making us sick. What are the experiences of fellow Slashdot readers on this topic?"

    You're not doing me a favor by clicking. I was doing you (generic you) a favor by giving information that might be helpful. I get nothing back from you if you click on that link. And as long as *I'm* the one spending my time to offer information some people may find useful, I'll use a method I like for linking, Tinyurl.

    And how on earth does a tinyurl insult your intelligence? Exactly what game are you hep to?
