For the past three years, investment banker Andy was plagued by nightmares because of stress from his 14-hour work days. He was moody all the time. Food became a source of comfort, and his weight went from 70kg to 80kg.
Three weeks ago, Andy, 29, who declined to give his full name, decided to quit.
His case is not uncommon, say doctors and human resource experts. More young professionals are ending up with medical problems, including insomnia, depression and hypertension, because of extra-long work hours.
Investment banker Andy said he struggled with the decision to quit his job for a year and is now thinking of working as a property agent or teacher.
"It was difficult because I will have to give up a $10,000 monthly salary. But for now, I think having more time for myself and my family is more important."
