Anxiety on the job

I'm just looking for some advice. What do or have you done when its come to you jobs and anxiety? I worked in the OR for 7 years and this last August I felt I needed a change i wasn't being treated fairly and I wanted to get out of healthcare. So I took a job closer to home for a pay cut. It was the biggest mistake of my life. The job I went to was so much work it turned my anxiety and depression to 1000. I found another job but I'm starting with the anxiety around co workers and feeling like I'm a failure abd I habe no idea what to do with my life.
