Quitting job tomorrow

I've been at my current job for years and am partially furloughed due to COVID. I haven't been happy there for a while and COVID forced me to update my resume and actively search for jobs, which has been great! A lot of things have transpired over the past few months to where I don't feel respected, am gaslighted at work and my anxiety is awful. I'm stressed every day and my boyfriend has been a wonderful support, but I decided that I just couldn't do it anymore and am giving my 2 week notice tomorrow. My health is more important and we're ok financially until I find another job. I can't sleep because I'm so anxious about turning in my notice, even though this is going to be the best thing for me.

@Sparkles18,

Good for you, you're more than a job. It sounds like you were not in the greatest work environment, which added on top of the already existing work stress. That's wonderful that your boyfriend is a main part of your support system!

If I was in your exact situation, what would you tell me?

Thank you! It went very well and I feel a lot lighter! I would tell you to do the same exact thing. A toxic job isn't worth it--you can always find something somewhere else!
