@thisismoney: Study suggests leaving a toxic job can improve your mental health faster than years of therapy. 💼🧠 Research into chronic stress and workplace burnout suggests the nervous system struggles to fully recover while a person remains in the environment causing the damage. While therapy can provide valuable coping strategies and emotional support, psychologists say progress can be limited when the source of stress is still present every day. Experts compare it to trying to heal a wound while repeatedly reopening it. Studies have found that once a major source of chronic stress is removed, cortisol levels can begin to fall, sleep quality often improves and emotional regulation becomes easier, allowing the body and mind to recover more effectively. The findings have reignited discussions around workplace culture, burnout and the long-term health impact of staying in jobs that cause persistent stress, anxiety and exhaustion. #ThisIsMoney #Money #News #UK
