I am glad to hear you left, especially when you have a signal that your health is at risk. Nothing is worth that, in my opinion. I even had a friend that got to suicide because of work. And there are a lot of companies that do not simply care much about the employee, especially when it comes to operational load and on-call rotation.

In order to make the best decision, one must try to understand oneself. I've been reading a book called "Finding Your Own North Star: Claiming the Life You Were Meant To Live", which has been quite helpful in this regard. There are some career coaches that seem to be very effective for some people as well.
