ADHD + Depressed. Work makes it worse but I can't leave?

My employer is funding my degree with a standard repayment agreement (repay X if leave within Y). I do genuinely appreciate the opportunity, have always been driven and I really want to develop myself for the long term.

Since starting my health has become really bad... with many things happening that I have had a hard time dealing with especially in the last 12 months or so with things happening out of work but also many issues at work also (e.g feeling alone and isolated, not supported in my role). I also got a late ADHD diagnosis which has been difficult to deal with.

I've tried to stay and do things to improve at work but to no avail and I am just deteriorating. I realised I need to sort myself and seek help so spoke to GP a month ago & I am clinically depressed and have started antidepressants / referred for therapy. Begun socialising more with friends and family etc etc.

I feel better when I wfh or over weekends however as soon as I'm at work things go back to the way they were and I genuinely am now worried for my wellbeing. It's affecting everything about me, my marriage and we have got a 2 month old baby, friendships, relationships, physical health, mental health...

I don't really know what to do anymore. I would like to leave and start anew but I cannot repay everything upfront.

TLDR - My mental and physical health is at an all time low due to work, I am being treated for depression and worried about my long term wellbeing. Employer is funding my degree. I cannot afford to repay it. What do I do?
