&lt;p&gt;Leaving can always be appropriate; we are hard taskmasters of ourselves and it&amp;#39;s difficult to forgive ourselves for trying to save our own lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Advice needed please, moving out of clinical practice</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/140303?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 17 Jul 2015 07:31:28 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:fd107e38-7970-484a-b1a1-262998e930a3</guid><dc:creator>J G Wray</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;An On MRCVS&amp;quot;] Is it difficult to move into an industrial role such as technical advice without any previous experience?[/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gently be it said, but perhaps your question should be &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot; Is it difficult to move?&amp;quot; before you qualify it in any way.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is a rhetorical question in the end because all jobs, clinical practice, technical posts, academe, journalism, whatever, have issues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have your medical advisors nailed down clinical practice as the pernicious influence on your condition? If so, then leaving is appropriate, but&amp;nbsp; if it is something more generic then something else may need thinking about.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is no failure in self preservation, but there could be in swapping one set of pressures for another.
