I left a very high pressure, high stress job in the medical field for something far less stressful which paid FAR less with FAR fewer benefits. (I wasn't a nurse, but I worked with a lot of them. They had way more stress than I did.)
At the end of the day, I had to ask myself what was more important - my job and it's fine $ and beneifts - and yes, I was very good at what I did - or my own health/sanity? And in the end, I decided that it was in my best interests to take a job with less stress. It meant some lifestyle changes, but even with less income I'm way happier.
