You finished foundation training and stepped off, or you are about to. You are tired in a way that sleep does not fix. You might be locuming, travelling, or just stopped. You want out of the thing that broke you, but you are at real risk of sprinting toward the first exit ramp out of exhaustion rather than choosing well. This plan treats your burnout as a fact to manage, not a weakness to push through.
Recover enough to think clearly, then explore from a place of choice rather than escape. The first job is rest and stabilising your finances. The second is a low-pressure, honest look at where you actually want to go, so you do not trade one bad fit for another. Do not panic-apply.

This is educational career guidance, not a promise of a job, a salary, or any specific outcome, and not financial or legal advice. Your results depend on your own effort and circumstances. Make big decisions with proper professional advice where it matters.
Do not resign a training post or change your contract on the strength of a quiz or a plan. Talk to your deanery, your educational supervisor, and your medical defence organisation first. Leaving and re-entering training has real consequences worth understanding before you act.
