I'm thinking of quitting my job with nothing lined up. I know this is a crazy idea, but I was wondering just how crazy it was and if other folks have done anything similar in the past?
Normally, especially in this job market, I would try to job hunt while spending minimal effort on my day job. However, after switching to a new job 10 months ago, my mental health is rapidly deteriorating and I've started getting panic attacks and hyperventilating. My therapist recommended taking FMLA instead, but there's no guarantee I will get approved (under 1 year of employment at the firm).
I'm 26, and have enough in savings to last ~2 years, 3 if I really stretch. I'm feeling incredibly burnt out and done with this situation, but I also know that it's very risky to do this right now.
