I’m currently on unplanned sick leave because my my immune system got worse and caught a flu. They always want me to work even after work hours and most times I work 15-16hrs. Can’t even rest because I have deadlines. I also have a responsibility in our household.
I would say working in a startup is traumatizing. My mental health is also getting worse because of constant panic attacks. Having toxic coworkers adds up to it. They keep on getting projects with short deadlines. And I’m the only one who can do it.
Planning to resign but everyone told me to not be a quitter and stop my bad attitude. But then, my salary won’t even pay enough for my hospital bills if I get admitted.
