Quitting my job today

So I am quitting my stressful anxiety inducing job today. I asked my boss when we could talk and he said this afternoon. I'm so scared. I just started working here last month I've been here almost 2 months but this job is not at all what I expected. I have connections for a much better job and my friend is helping me get it too! I cannot stand to be at this job for another week so I am telling my boss this week is my last week. I'm so nervous but I need this to happen. My anxiety has NEVER been this bad before. I am dreading going to work every night and every weekend. I have constant stress headaches. This job is completely not worth it. I feel guilty for leaving so soon and so sudden but it's for the best. I'm just venting but also looking for some support that I'm doing the right thing. I'm just so scared and nervous to tell my boss.

@sensibleSouth3707 Good luck, south! It's fantastic that you are putting your very real and important needs ahead of a job that brings you misery.
Chin up! The meeting will go fine.

@ladylazarus1971 thank you so much! I'm just so nervous! I'm never quit a job like this before so I'm very scared to only be giving this one week notice. I plan on having my final day as this Friday :/ I just cannot be here much longer I'm so scared!!! But in my mind I am doing what's best for me. I have enough money to get me through the next two months of bills!!!! I need to be more confident in myself.
