Correct-Egg965's journey

I’m currently feeling quite overwhelmed in my role as a Business Analyst in the Commercial Strategy team. Although I work from home and earn a good salary, my mental health has taken a serious hit. I find myself crying frequently and feeling a heavy weight on my chest that doesn’t lift, even on my days off. My confidence and self-esteem have plummeted. The main issue is that my job has turned into mostly administrative tasks with very little actual analysis work. Despite my efforts to be proactive and ask for more responsibilities, things haven’t improved. Recently, I applied for an internal position in Compliance/Control Testing. This role seems to offer more structure, which I believe I need right now. However, I’m second-guessing my decision. I worry about whether I’ll be able to return to a more analytical role in the future if I make this switch. I’m also concerned that moving into compliance might feel like a sideways step rather than a progression. At 31 years old and with 8 years at the company, resigning isn’t really an option for me due to my tenure and the current restructuring risks. I’d love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.
