English term or phrase: detach myself
I am having a hard time translating "detach myself" in the following sentence taken from the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale:

" It is difficult to detach myself from my job. "

So far, this is what I have: "Sulit untuk memisahkan diri dari pekerjaan saya."
Atau: "Pekerjaan saya adalah bagian besar dari identitas saya."

Mohon sarannya.

Thank you in advance.

Explanation:
Memisahkan diri is ok in my opinion. Or you can use melepaskan or menjauhkan diri, basically something along that line.
