Is it all in my brain, how to overcome quickly and get my life in my hands?!

Is it all in my brain, how to overcome quickly and get my life in my hands?

Thins with my gf are not going so well and I feel down since we've been together for slightly more than 2 years and I feel very attached to her. I have just started my career and also it is difficult to live as I want with my current salary, so I realy want to get my life in my hands, move on, lets say be an egoist for a while, remove the self-destroying feelings that have penatrated my brain. It is all in my brain, mixing of chemicals that control my feelings and ruin my well-being? Is time the only cure?

I feel you. I suggest that planning, and thinking about stuff objectively really helps. The early stages of a career often suck. Low pay, steep learning curve, harsh conditions? Think about the long term plan...what do you really want to do in the future, what floats your boat/ rolls your socks up and down/ would be such a great job you would bounce out of bed at dawn? Find out what you really want , make yourself a plan and then execute the plan, whether its biding your time in a job that sucks first or further study etc. The gf is a whole other problem. the bottom line is that it can never be totally in your control, because 50% of the decision making and direction is hers. Talk to her, figure out your feelings and options. Good Luck!! As for your immediate stress, try lots of running/swimming, lots of fresh vegies and salad, plenty of sleep and some regular healthy fun of some sort.
