How to handle large life changes

Emily123

I'm 29 and have been working at the same workplace since I was 18. For quite some time now I have been really miserable with my job and wish to quit. The problem is the idea of leaving and starting over of that huge change the new people the possibility of meltdowns is so overwhelming that I don't know what to do. How do I go about making big life changes such as moving jobs or getting my own place when the mere thought of it sends me into a spiral. Any advice on how others have handled this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

  • Well now.  HOW EXCITING !  I do appreciate that it might feel petrifying(ish) to you, but if you have built up enough-of-a-head-of-steam to be able to write that "I have been really miserable with my job and wish to quit." ...... then this is already a foregone conclusion I suspect.

    It is really cool that you are "asking before jumping" - I believe that ALL+EVERY piece of good advice regarding this type of matter is = don't do anything RASH now !!

    You are very new here, I note?  May I ask why you have sought the advice of this community?  Personally (for what it is worth,) I found this community immensely helpful to me at a time of VERY profound change......so there is a god/fair/reasonable chance that some of the souls here might be able to empower you to reach your best conclusions on these matters.

    To put that another way - if we can help, I'm sure we will - and if we can't help, it is really positive that you are looking for help with this.

    Best of luck to you, in any event.
