Sometimes no matter how hard you try to do all the right things at work, a job may feel as if it's hurting you more than helping you. Maybe the job is a bad fit, maybe volatility in your industry gives you anxiety about the future, or maybe a salary cut is making too many of your purchases stress-inducing.

    有時不論你多么努力想把事情做好，總覺得工作帶給你的傷害似乎多于益處。原因可能在于你并不適合這份工作，或是由于該行業(yè)的不確定性讓你焦慮，還可能因為減薪導(dǎo)致了購買壓力。

    If you find yourself in a similar position, you have to assess whether your work situation is toxic or revivable. If you decide your job is toxic, take control and formulate an exit plan. It's simply not worth staying in a situation that can negatively impact your health, relationships, and peace of mind.

    如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)自己處于類似情況，那么就需要評估一下：你的工作是有害的還是有救的？如果你確定工作有害，那么控制局面，制定退出計劃。呆在一個有損健康、人際關(guān)系和心態(tài)的環(huán)境中是不值的。

    If you decide to create some changes in your job, you can take the following proactive self-care measures to protect your well-being as you focus on the challenges ahead.
