Might be a hot take but I think both high school and university are (typically) much more difficult and stressful than career work. Constantly having to process, assimilate, and retain new information at a breakneck pace; perpetual assignments and exams which have huge educational, social, and monetary repercussions upon failure; all this while also having to find a way to earn enough money to survive on minimum wage shit jobs with zero job security or recourse for poor treatment.
Yes, by the time you're employed you probably have way more responsibilities both inside and outside the workplace which can make life more stressful, but no workplace I've been in has challenged me nearly so much as hs and uni.
take too hot for me
