I just searched on LinkedIn. 52k people whose status has “career break” in it. So, you aren’t alone.

As a principal SRE at a FAANG you are highly desirable. I can’t imagine that would change too much in a single year.

Take a break for your health. You can always get a new job but you only have one body and one mind.
