Name changed for this. Ruined my own Christmas holidays panicking about going back to work. Since qualifying as a health care professional (OT) all I have done is jump from stressful role to stressful role. The penny has dropped that it's the area of work and I no longer want to work in a clinical person facing role. I have children who really need me right now and I'm struggling to be present for them. The needs and demands of other families are never ending. I struggle with anxiety anyway and I've came to the conclusion that I need a completely different role before I burn out (already had to take time off for stress and insomnia this year). I've tried counselling and meds - it's the job that needs to change. If you have a less stressful and I'm guessing less peopley job - what is it? Particularly keen to hear from people who have left similar roles. Thank you x
