Stressed being a SWE

Feb 22 9 Comments

I’ve been a SWE for a few years now and I always feel stressed out whenever I have to work on a new task. I don’t mind learning new languages or frameworks but coding at work is stressful because of deadlines and sprints.
Perhaps SWE is not for me? However, I feel accomplished every time I’m able to finish a task.

My SO is also a SWE but doesn’t get stressed like me and can always figure out the solutions right away which makes me think that I’m not cut out for this.

Do you feel stressed as well? Is this feeling normal? If not, what jobs should I look into? Pm?
