Worried about my mood and work performance

[aspasia13]

I'm very worried lately by things going on with me. I no motivation at work, and am finding it far too easy to get distracted rather than do what I should be working on. I'm also getting very sad and depressed lately due to loneliness, more so than usual. I know the holidays are coming up, but all I can seem to focus on is how much more diminished

What about a bunny? They'd require less attention than a dog, but more than a cat, can be house trained, and live 8-10 years on average. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_rabbit

I am considering this myself. Kat is allergic to cats (go figure), our complex doesn't allow dogs, like you I am wary of getting a pet that will live less than a half decade(leaving out pretty much all rodents), and would like an animal I can pet and play with (which rules out reptiles/spiders/fish). They seem to be the best combo of something that doesn't require constant attention like a dog, but can be a solitary animal, but not so aloof as some cats can be. The only real caveat of having them I suppose would be feeding them, as it looks like its a bit more expensive than cats/dogs if you don't have ready access to cheap greens.
