I used to have a stressful job in the military, and then I quit after 15 years. Most of my friends and family think that I made a mistake, but I’ve never felt better. I was able to find a job in my military specialty after 7 months of unemployment, but the lower stress levels have significantly increased my work satisfaction. I am still working on some of my unhealthy habits that I picked up while I was on Active Duty, but overall I am a much better and mentally healthy person.
