I am a writer and the industry for which I write is very high stress. I think it triggers some of my depression and anxiety.
Does anyone know of writing jobs that are not high stress?
This has been my experience so far: Tech writing: medium stress, good money but way too boring for me. Journalism: high stress and low money. Publishing: high stress and low low low money. Advertising: high stress and good money.
Ack! I am thinking of just going back to proofreading even though it would pay much less. I am tired of juggling all these deadlines and feeling like crying at work.
Maybe I should change careers entirely.
Maybe I should have gone to VoTech.
