Would you leave a good paying job that makes you depressed and try your hand at something else?

I think I would, making money is one thing, but a bad job will ruin all aspects of your life.

I really don't know what I'd do.
But something like this was happening to me, and I chose good pay. And somehow I made the heart to settle. And I'm not depressed. Because I know what depression is. Most days I don't feel like going, but I find small motivations.

I actually did that twice; worked out fine!

Always a risk in changing jobs especially if it's good paying. Are there things that can be changed in your current job to make it less depressing or is it the nature of the work?

I've done it, I loved it, started my own bussiness, but it didn't work out,I don't regret it though, for a few months I felt amazing. On the side of my business I'm working for a job I hate now, once I save up more money I'm going traveling. I agree,bad job will ruin many aspects of your life. I stayed with a job I hated for 12 years, never again. Ill use the jobs for money and keep trying to do my own thing, even if it's less money.

Yes, I did it 30 years ago and never looked back.

The best thing to do is look for something else while you are still employed there. It's always easier to find a job when you already have one and to land something comparable in pay.

Yep for sure.

i just did this. i was dreading going in and found something else with a little less pay. once i figured out i could make it work it was a no brainer, and now after being in it for a while, it was the right choice.

Over your lifetime you spend far too much time working to stay in a job you dislike, working at something you love is much healthier even if it isn't quite as lucrative.

I wanna say for myself it would depend where I’m at in my life and if it would be wise.

But i mean if it’s that bad then make a run for it

if I'd something that really attracts and interests me I would consider it

Good paying jobs are rare. I would stay

If I could afford to do so.

Yes. Although it's not a good paying job but I am very much depressed at my job. I am at a stage where I can turn into other jobs. But the struggle in moving out isn't easy untill money is flowing in the pocket.

Yes I did
I worked in Waterford crystal and the pay was huge and I left it

Like stripping 😕
