I don't like recommending that anyone take drugs so they can cope with their job — it reeks of dystopia. But in your situation, the path of least resistance is to go to a psychiatrist and ask for an antidepressant. Make sure to mention if you have trouble sleeping as this will affect the choice of treatment.

Over time, hopefully you will be able to find other ways to manage stress, and take a well-deserved vacation.
