I chose Law as career because I always felt I belonged here. I always wanted to help people in a way that made an actual impact of both of our lives. I’ve started my practice of Law in a district court and the stories people bring, the emotions, all of this is getting a little too much for me. The emotional toll is getting heavier by the day.
I don’t want to leave this profession, but is there a better way for me to handle these emotions? How do i not let them get me?
Similar profession and feeling, which led to being part of the great resignation where I’m still waiting for something to grab me that has a purpose without the emotional burden. Maybe work towards a transition from front lines to adjacencies with direct client contact or propose a temporary assignment?
