Will submitting an FMLA request for burnout negatively impact my career?
Basically the title. Has anyone here taken FMLA for mental health/burnout as a federal employee? Did it negatively impact your career long term?I genuinely used to love my job before this administration, but I’ve been running on fumes for a long time now. My mental health has gotten progressively worse and I’m honestly at a point where I’m having some pretty dark thoughts and know I can’t keep functioning like this indefinitely.Part of me feels incredibly guilty even considering FMLA because I worry it’ll permanently change how leadership views me or hurt future opportunities/promotions. At the same time, I know I’m not doing well and probably need to prioritize getting healthy before I completely burn out.Would really appreciate any insight from people who’ve been through this.
