That's precisely the issue TFA is referring to. Tying your mental health to your work. It's unhealthy, and if you're at the point where you're justifying this link, you might seriously be in a co-dependent relationship with your company.

If you have the mental fortitude to know when to step back, then all the power to you, but I find it much too easy to fall into the trap of "working so hard so my mental health doesn't suffer, but my mental health suffers anyway"
