Fed up
My colleague (A) on my team tasked me to source an image on a article another colleague (B) had written. I spent 1 hour looking for an image, it was very draining and felt very exhausted, I showed them more than 20 ideas and neither colleague A or colleague B were stastifed. I gave it my all for this one small task.
Although colleague A is on my team, they never helped me to look for an image, I had to do it all myself. Towards the end of the task I found an image that I really liked and thought worked well and my colleague A also found an image they liked.
At the end colleague B decided to go with the idea of colleague A , i put in all that ******* effort and they never considered my idea. Colleague A didnt do anything all they did was complain and asked me to look for images. I'm frustrated how someone like Colleague A didn't even help me at the beginning but yet their idea was still chosen, they never felt the exhaustion I was feeling.
Even my relative could notice how emotionally and mentally drained I was, the topic of the article was also very difficult because I dont have any background experience within that topic and it was very new to me.
Generally I feel invisible. I try to put myself out there in the team and other teams too and I feel ignored...other people are praised more and I feel invisible, disrespected in my profession because people on my team are taking over my role even when they dont have any qualification or knowledge in my field.
Any Advice?

Same advice as last time, (I'll assume you're the same poster), quit your job and get a role somewhere you are doing the work you enjoy and are getting recognition for it.
Is there any reason you are reluctant to look for work elsewhere?

I agree. Start looking for other jobs that you will enjoy more and where you will get more recognition.
