Job Dissatisfaction

I was just curious if there is such a thing as "signs of job dissatisfaction" as in like "clinical signs and symptoms of depression". Found some interesting websites and when I read through the statements I realise I am dissatisfied with my job. Actually I knew I was dissatisfied, but to what degree I guess I still need professional help. Interesting though is that even the most satisfied worker experiences small amounts of job dissatisfaction, but overall they are still satisfied so no thoughts of leaving.

I mean there were the typical signs of job dissatisfaction that I experience such as dreading going to work, always feeling tired at work even when I don't burn midnight oil, lack of enthusiasm etc. What really caught my attention is this statement: you dream of leaving your job and moving to a remote island in the South Pacific, no seriously, leaving friends, family, your life and never looking back. That's exactly what I was talking about when I posted on doing a disappearing act. Quite comforting to know that it is one of the signs of job dissatisfaction else I was still wondering how I ever end up with such thoughts. :D
