I work in a high pressure MH environment, often doing 12-14 hour shifts dealing with very challenging behaviour. The stress of it is doing me in, I have lost over a stone in the last couple of months as I am often too on-edge to eat, am angry and depressed and often have to cry in the loos on shift, then once I start crying I can't stop. I feel that I have to leave for the sake of my sanity but am afraid of the financial implications. I do have enough savings for a couple of months rent but my DP is concerned that leaving without another job to go to will screw us both over Ashe thinks I will find it hard to get another job. I don't know what to do anymore, I feel like I'm going out of my mind with the stress of it. AIBU to think I can pick up some shifts at Christmas elsewhere and that life's too short to be this fucking miserable?
