I have been working in education at the university level for the past 2 years and have decided to go back to clinical work as a Physical Therapist. I believe the stress of my current job and the demands of travel, weekends and evenings has been a factor in my symptoms. I do admit that the physical nature of my profession has me worried about returning to full time clinical work but I believe the stress will be much less as well as travel time. I have been managing full time and I would like to stay full time at least until my youngest graduates from high school in 3 and 1/2 years, but I realize that might not be possible.

I appreciate your insight and I will consider this as I make transitional plans.
