This is just what I needed to hear right now.

My job is causing me to be sick in more ways than one. I've been talking to my spouse for the last month about quitting, which only causes her to stress and worry about where we will get money to pay for everything. So I've continued going to the job, but it feels like a slow suicide.

What I really liked about your story-- and there is a similarity that I've seen with other people's stories on this thread-- is that it doesn't have to become perfection the day you quit. It seems to me to be more like adopting a different lifestyle, imperfect but better than it was before.

Thanks.
