Indian on H-1B visa feels ‘burned out’ in US, says ‘would really like to go back' after ‘high-stress FAANG job’

A Redditor with an H-1B visa, who once worked at high-stress FAANG companies such as Amazon and Meta for five years, has expressed his desire to return to India for a short period to recover from burnout. He has been feeling 'burned out' in the US and has sought help from therapists, taking occasional breaks, but hasn't seen any improvement.

The user and his wife have sufficient savings to afford him taking time off for 1-3 months. However, he is concerned about returning to the US due to H-1B stamping, as appointments in India are uncertain. Despite various advice from others on the platform, the Redditor seeks guidance on navigating this situation, emphasizing the need to prioritize his health and well-being.
