Biggest thing I did to go from feeling like shit to actually feeling engaged was getting involved with my union. Life is so much more satisfying when you do something that matters, and when the existing union leadership who have been largely useless described me as "trouble" I felt validated lol.
Even if your union is running well they pretty much can always use an extra set of hands, so step up!
