Yeah, sheesh, I was in such a grim place. So proud of myself for doing it despite all the feelings I was having though. I feel so much better for having left a career I hated and starting fresh. I knew it was the right thing to do, but in the moment when I felt so bad I just really felt like it wasn't worth it for a future payoff.
I'm poorer now than I was but I think money will be OK. I think it's just anxiety feelings that make it not OK in my brain.
I think I will go back to the private healthcare to seek out some counselling for "low level issues". Maybe I'll try to focus on something specific like anxiety thoughts and get some coping skills for that. Thanks! That's a good idea.
Things are for the most part starting to calm down in my brain now. Phew!
Thanks to everyone who replied on this thread. I don't come by here very often any more but I feel like everyone here is so caring and I'm super grateful :)
