The stress from work and the pressure to perform can really take a toll on our mental health. It's no wonder you're feeling overwhelmed. Depression and schizophrenia are serious conditions that can be influenced by a variety of factors, including stress, genetic predisposition, and life events. Seeking help from a psychiatrist  was a good first step. The medication he prescribed, olanzapine, is commonly used to manage symptoms of schizophrenia. However, it can sometimes cause mood swings as a side effect. It's crucial to communicate openly with psychiatrist about these side effects so he can adjust your treatment plan accordingly. Dealing with stomach issues like ulcers and GERD on top of everything else must be incredibly challenging. Pantoprazole is a standard treatment for these conditions, but it's essential to follow up with your gastroenterologist regularly to ensure it's effectively managing your symptoms. In terms of your current job situation at SBI, it sounds like the demands are adding to your stress levels. It might be helpful to have an open conversation with your manager about how you're feeling. Exploring stress management techniques, like mindfulness or exercise, could also be beneficial.
