Could be just a case of run of the mill depression. What else has been going on in your life the past 6 months? First job? Recent move? Girls?
What kind of personal projects do you have going?
What kind of personal projects do you have going?
If the difference is insurmountable (or if your career goal is different from the job reality) then you are on the losing end of the deal.
As soon as you can identify what is wrong with where you are, and where it is you need to (or should ideally) be, it is time to find something closer to that thing, and move on to it.
This is in that venn overlap between what you are good at, what you like to do, and what other people will pay you to do. Life is full of tons of other things, but this is just the core of this situation.
When life squeezes on the Venn until any of those three things (or other important things) are no longer overlapping, it is time to change something, like switching to a new job that overlaps better with your particular venn idiosyncrasies.
Hope that gives you something to mull on instead of dwelling on the suckiness of this one job, which, I can attest has been the case for me on multiple occasions in my life. It isn't fun when you feel like little more than another seat warming robot and not a valued contributor.
I have had the luxury of quitting my job without having another lined up, but I still have had to take another critical look at my work/life arrangement and try to ensure that whatever is next is really what is best for me and my unique venn diagram, which as I have gotten a bit older has become complicated by mortgages/wives/families/etc.
Ha! Now I am going to go try and actually draw mine out!
Cheers
