Considering quitting admin position due to stress and burnout

I cry 4–5 days a week due to stress and loss of autonomy.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had more training and support before starting the role"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider your mental health and prioritize self-care when weighing job decisions"
