Re:Do you struggle with anxiety from work? by opportune on Tuesday July 28, 2020 @08:08PM (#23982058)
Yes. It’s not all due to responsibility and the content of the work. It’s also pressure coming from myself to do a good job and feeling angry at myself if I think I’m not performing up to my standards.

Generally by the time the anxiety or stress gets bad enough I make moves to switch jobs. It’s also likely you’re overworking and people won’t really notice or care if you take it easy for a month or two.

If you’re a manager or TL you can also look into delegating work. Even as an IC you can perhaps ask your manager to take something or for them to re-assign it.
