Thinking of quitting vet med

I'm a 35y f. I've been a Vet tech fir 11y and I am just so disenchanted. For most of my career I've always thought I was a lifer. Lately, I just feel like I can't do it anymore. The pay and the drama just don't feel worth it to me anymore. I love the animals so much but I am so tired of catty Dr's and crappy pay so that I'm constantly behind on bills. What are some reasons you left if you did? Why stay? Idk just wanted to hear from some others who might be going through the same.
