asking for some advice

I work for a small company, and since day one I have co workers who are difficult, childish. We are also very light on work so most of the day we’re just sitting around. I am an empath, so I pick up on the “”energies” of people and the moods of the room. Lately it has been very difficult and I am dreading going in to have to deal with all of this. My therapist and I realized that I am open emotionally way too much, and that I am a fixer by nature. It was suggested I leave the work stuff at work, because I have a tendency to vent to my family, which keeps it in my mind. Then I kind of stew in it. I am looking for another job but for right now? I’m stuck. When I say difficult I have a woman who is like a bulldog who never stops barking. Things she’s the best at everything. Her 23 yr old niece who is lazy, talks like a baby, literally, and more often than not makes mistakes.I have 2 grown women who act like toddlers. One is always poor me, woes me. And lies out her ass.The other one is one who pokes, prods with questions, is antagonistic and when the other person snaps she plays the victim. It’s exhausting, and draining not only my energy but my mental energy as well.Any tips, tricks, ideas to leave work at work? I would be forever grateful!
