I took short-term disability leave for about a month. The head of my group was supportive of my leave, and no one treated me any differently after I returned. I've since only received glowing feedback. I was fortunate that taking leave didn't negatively impact my career, but at the time, I had similar concerns as you. At the end of the day, I decided that not taking leave would have been more detrimental to my career than taking leave, as I knew I would not be able to perform well with my deteriorating mental health and really needed to take the time to take care of myself.
Coach
Account director - thank you for your message. For some reason the app won’t let me reply but I appreciate it!!!
If you don’t take it, your health and performance will deteriorate to the point that you might be let go anyway. Take it.
Mentor
I have, yes. Absolutely worth it.
The more people that take it the less stigma! Plus what is it there for ? 😊
I have not. I know someone that did and was let go a year after
I think they went on leave immediately after starting
I have also been considering this and would like to hear more about others’ experiences. If I were to do this, my fear would be missing out on opportunities and not getting work when I come back.
