    Because stress severly impacted my health in my former job, I got a new job. Now, stress is almost non-existent in my new position, my health is better, and I’m happier overall.

    I had to leave my job due to stress just on Wednesday. It impacted my life and health and my employer was not willing to help to relieve stress.
