I was hospitalized for overwork once. It's something one never really recovers from as it is more mental than physical. At his age, he should work an easy position for a couple more years then retire - he'll never recover sufficiently to resume his previous post.

Take care Gen Yoshihide Yoshida, as work as as important as it is, it never ends. Health first, work second.

There is no mention of what they classified as being over worked for this man. Do they know just how many ordinary Japanese people are over worked and underpaid, yet they cannot afford to be 'ill' or hospitalised because of having to pay just to live and survive. I doubt this general will face any of these problems.

Don’t even hear about generals in Ukraine in active war zone having this problem.
