Hi.

Counselor: Hello A! How are you doing today? My name is Mr. Ahmad. I'm going to be your session counselor today.

A: Meeting you is nice.

Counselor: Likewise! Now tell me why and how I can help you.

A: Mr Ahmad, I am very stressed by the pressure of work. I can't sleep and sometimes I even dream of not being able to deliver projects on time. It contributes to many problems like headache, stomach ache, short temperature and difficulty concentrating.

Counselor: relax now! Did you try to stand up for yourself and tell the boss about the pressure at work?

A: There's no way! There's so many candidates I can lose my job to fill my position.

Counselor: What's your financial situation? Can you support yourself for a while without a job?

A:  I've got enough savings for a few years to support myself.

Counselor: You have two options to think about, either standing by yourself or resigning from work and taking a sabbatical. I'm sure you're going to get a talented person like you in no time. Think about it and come to me after a week. Set up for yourself some boundaries of work-life. That may mean making a rule not to check email from home at night, or not to answer the phone at dinner time. While people have different preferences about how much they blend their work and home life, creating clear boundaries between these realms can reduce the potential for conflict between work-life and the stress that goes with it.

A: Thank you for your advice. I'm going to think about it and come back to you.
