Stomach aches every morning when I wake up, anxiety, depression.
I had this stomach ache for over a year and no doctor could diagnose the underlying cause. As soon as I left consulting my stomach ache disappeared! So yes, it has long term health impact for real.
I am in 30s and got diagnosed with coronary artery disease. Got stents placed in my heart. It is caused by 4 key factors,
1) Smoking - I never smoked
2) Stress - non-stop in consulting
3) High blood pressure - directly related to stress
4) Bad lipid levels - constantly traveling and eating whatever I get to complete the work on time
I decided to quit consulting right away. Started looking for jobs outside. Jumping the ship after holiday break.

A1 definitely get that checked out ASAP. Have heart disease history in my family and my family who are in the medical field always recommend checking early rather than later
Not from consulting, but the military gave me a stress induced heart condition. So I left the military for a lower stress job - consulting 🙃
I see. Glad it’s better for you 😆
Decreased libido, been in consulting for close to 9 years. I am so stuck with work hardly fine time for my partner , very lucky I got a understanding partner. She is still with me.
How do you attribute decreased libido to consulting as opposed to just general aging?
Lost hair, high blood pressure, gained weight, several health issues that continue to compound.
Sorry to hear that. Hope things get better soon
I've become rather fat.
Obesity, alcoholism and a touch of Tourette’s
Yikes, I’m sorry 😞
