Thinking about quitting

[Treeline589]

Seriously thinking about quitting my job tomorrow. It's the source of so much pain and suffering. Not sure how I would survive though without it. All the more reason to CTB.

I really wouldn't until you have something else- this could make your life a lot worse pretty quickly. Even if you do end up ctb, most people postpone this multiple times before following through, and becoming homeless won't make things better. It might be better to try try to sneak in more downtime in bits, etc to cope with the job until you find something else.

I know its not a good idea to quit before I have something else lined up- if I even try for something else- but I guess part of me thinks that if I quit then I will move closer to CTB because I will have to do something about it, if that makes sense

That sounds very stressful what you are going through. It can be awful when something causes you to suffer so much. I'm sorry you are in this situation. I wish you the best in whatever happens.

please consider taking a few days off. You may feel better. I use vacation days as mental health days

Im exactly that way. I find it hard to work living with depression and anxiety, I can't take it anymore

I understand this thinking but putting yourself under more stress like this might just sap your energy so much that it becomes even harder to ctb, and if you end up homeless your options for ctb get reduced a lot, which is why so many people are stuck as long term homeless. It's just too risky, in my opinion.
