I quit software, though I never made it very far in it it was my profession for 16 years. I'm a corrections officer now. My new career is drastically less stressful.
I didn't exactly quit tech: I quit big tech and moved back home. Now I freelance, and I'm happier than I've ever been.
There's a certain joy to being with family in an environment everyone is familiar with and has a history in, which no kind of emigration can replicate.

Atleast you are less likely to get shot at in infosec, that probably helps with the stress
