So this week I made a decisive decision.
I stepped down from a management role within my workplace. Its extremely stressful and it became an obsession to me. I spent more time working than I did at home and this caused issues for me.
Its now clear that work was causing my anxiety. Weirdly, I was expecting my managers to be annoyed or upset but they understood. I explained I’d be diagnosed with anxiety and depression and they were fine with me.
The financial side means a bit of hardship but I feel a million times better. I enjoyed my role but it relies on you being a worker 100% of the time and not having down time.
Ultimately it’s been a good few weeks and the decisions I make are becoming positive ones. This will mean I can focus on home life and improving my health and fitness.
