        Idk if this is the right place to post. But here it goes.
        So, I’ve been interning at this firm for a while now, and I’m supposed to go on exam leave later this month. But honestly, I don’t think I can last that long. The place is an absolute nightmare constant shouting, unrealistic deadlines, and zero regard for mental health. Everyone’s always on edge, and the way they treat interns is beyond toxic.

        I’m at a point where the anxiety of going to work is consuming me, and I feel like I’m just dragging myself through each day. I know I technically have an exit coming up with my exam leave, but I don’t think I can mentally make it that far.

        Is there any graceful way to leave early without burning bridges? I don’t want to create unnecessary drama, but I also can’t subject myself to this environment anymore. Has anyone been in a similar situation? How did you handle it?

        Any advice would be appreciated I’m losing my mind here.

          Say you need time to prepare for exams. Say you’ve got some internal exams lined up immediately before the actual exams so you need to start preparing for that.

                  Arey try. Just say it’s too important and you can’t mess it up so you need an early leave.
