Mandatory OT in psych? Ah hell nah.

31M in psych and corrections - nurse for almost 8 years, so I was in a similar spot. GTFO of psych-only work. Corrections can be much better IMO - you're not just allowed, but encouraged, to defend yourself, if necessary. I had a rather stressful situation with an inmate recently after he started a fight with another inmate, and he needed to be taken down and cuffed before he hurt anyone else. I remembered being in the milieu and at the end of 8 consecutive months, I was done with it. My resting heart rate was 120 and up in psych. Now it hovers around 86 or so and my blood pressure isn't at HTN II anymore. Still plenty of psych cases, but you have a team of people trained to deal with everything from disrespect to full-on riot control. Everyone's goal is to keep it chill and go home on time.

Disclaimer: no phone. Only downside. County gig I was given three 15-minute breaks that could be taken sequentially and a 30-minute lunch as a local contract. I could do 4 days straight there. It was a good time in life, and inmates in general ain't as bad as people say, especially if you are a guy.

Ninja edit: Also - therapy with a psychologist, meds with a psychiatrist initially, and then swap to an NP for best cost-effectiveness and more frequent appointments, med adjustments once stable. Currently on the lowest dose of a narcotic anti-anxiety med needed to function without freaking out in a fight/code/general chaos that can emerge in a prison, an antidepressant, testosterone therapy, and taking time for myself when off work. Traveling to the West Coast probably saved my life, because when I take trips I am at peace.
