According to Anphabe Company, quitting work can help workers temporarily stay away from symptoms, but almost does not touch the root cause of their own problems. And if the problem really lies within you, then quitting the job is just changing the surface, not solving the root.
Illusions about "healing" when quitting.
Many people believe that just quitting work will make fatigue and deadlock disappear. But in reality, those feelings often do not originate from the only job but from the very loss of internal direction.
Some typical examples: Going home for peace? If your mind is still uneasy, then in a quiet place you can hear your inner turmoil even more clearly. Is there more time to find direction? If you haven't learned how to talk to yourself, then free time only prolongs confusion. Not being "stifled" will you become more confident again? If self-doubt comes from within, workspace is even easier to make you feel "useless".
Clearly, quitting is not a "panacea" to help you recover immediately.
The habit of giving up – the invisible trap
Another dangerous point that few people pay attention to: quitting when facing difficulties can become a repeated form of "abandonment".
The human mind has a mechanism to learn from experience. Once you are used to withdrawing every time you feel tired, the brain will "remember" that: if it's difficult, you can give up. And the loop begins: Giving up → Fake relief at the beginning → Again deadlock → Again giving up.
There is no guarantee that after quitting your job, you will not repeat this cycle elsewhere.
Why can't resignation touch the root?
The root of the crisis is often not in work, but in the way we perceive and manage ourselves.
Are you tired of the workload or because of the perfectionism and too high expectations that have not been removed; do you feel stuck because there is no career advancement path or because you yourself have not proactively searched, dialogued with superiors and created opportunities; do you lose confidence because your boss is critical or because you have not learned to separate work feedback and personal values?
If you cannot find answers to the above questions, then no matter how many times you switch jobs, fatigue will still recur.
The true "healing" path
Some practical suggestions:
Look deeper into the cause inside. Ask yourself: "Where does this fatigue come from? From the real workload, or from the comparison and perfectionism you create yourself?
Cure from the root to regenerate yourself. Learn to reset personal boundaries, practice self-talk skills, and nurture self-confidence with small things.
Establish a "recovery framework". Instead of waiting until you quit your job to rest, set up small recovery intervals in the life cycle: take a proper lunch break, cut off connections on weekends, and spend time on spiritual activities.
The role of businesses in supporting employees
Businesses also need to have mechanisms to help employees overcome the crisis period without having to choose to "quit to heal".
Some solutions: Develop a clear development roadmap, so that employees have future orientations; create a safe dialogue space where employees can share difficulties without fear of judgment; invest in mental welfare programs, such as coaching, mentoring or activities to improve mental health.
Businesses cannot stop all employees from leaving, but can accompany them to help them "reoperate themselves" before deciding to give up.
