Difficulty switching off outside of work...

[Pheo]

Anyone else suffer from this? I find it hard to stop thinking about decisions I've made / interactions with colleagues and often end up re running things in my head over and over. On a bad day (fortunately not often) this can have a severe impact on my mood. I hold a management position in a large financial services org, running a team of 12.

Wondering if anyone has tips to share on letting it all go when you walk out the door? Besides getting blind drunk!!

Some good ideas here... I should probably goto the gym more. Immersion is definitely true. I have a bunch of hobbies (like gardening etc) but
I still do often find I'm going over things again (for instance this morning I woke up thinking about it!)

Maybe I need to get in the finance forum and concentrate on my FIRE date

YES! Only during bad times though. Heard its like PTSD (Where you don't necessarily think about 'what bad things happened' rather 'What could I have done' or 'What will I do') etc.

I am more assertive these days and have learned, for want of a better term to not 'give a f***' - but during certain situations I still worry after work

Glad you said that - very much that's it, did I do the right thing etc! Glad I'm not the only one!!
