Over the past 10 months, I’ve been trying to leave a demanding role while working full-time. Despite being qualified, hardworking, and recently earning my PCP, I haven’t been able to secure another opportunity. The role has started to affect my mental and physical health, and I’ve had to seek medical support. I’m sharing this to ask: has anyone else been through this, and how did you navigate it without risking unemployment or burnout?

I have been looking for a job for 8 months and have had the same results. The job market is rough right now so you are lucky to have a role but I understand it is taking its toll. Hang in there and keep applying!

Look into medical leave and have that as a backup if needed. Job searching is another job in itself, and trying to deal with a place that is toxic doesn’t help anything. Try your best to stay the course and healthy while working, and just do what is absolutely needed there, nothing more or less.

I relate to this more than I would like to admit. Trying to escape a draining role while surviving it daily is exhausting. At some point, health has to matter more than perseverance optics.

That must be really exhausting and I really feel for you, I’m really sorry you feel like that, I really hope things look up for you.

Quick update guys. I completed my PCP and got an awesome role just a few mins away from my home. It’s just a day on site and they are very awesome. Thank you all for the kind words and advice
