In 2019, Business Insider wrote how veterinarians, first responders, doctors, and childcare, construction, and restaurant workers are at a higher risk for the above-mentioned ailments than the general population. Recently, one person on the Internet asked: “Which job has, hands down, the worst impact on mental health?” And while some of the answers from people reflect statistics from the article, others might be quite surprising. Bored Panda reached out to the author of this thread, u/VenkyFromAnakapalli, and they kindly agreed to tell us more about what prompted them to ask other Redditors about mentally exhausting jobs.

“I found myself feeling more and more reluctant to go work, so in frustration, I turned to Reddit. I wanted to just see how other people’s jobs were affecting their mental health.” And Reddit didn’t disappoint. People pointed out many professions where people have to sacrifice their mental health, like trucking or air traffic controllers.

“Add to that a stressful PI, as well as colleagues who don’t always want to help, [and] it gets demanding sometimes.” After reading the many answers from people, u/VenkyFromAnakapalli feels lucky to have the job they have. “I feel more blessed that my job never got as bad,” they say.

“I feel like the question was a good way to gain perspective in the life of someone else while letting off your stress by sharing it with others,” the Redditor added.
