After months of trial and error, I chose me. I CHOSE my mental health. I have never quit a job without having a backup. When I got home I had a recruiter from a local hospital ask me to send several times for a phone interview. I had my old boss reach out and let me know they are hiring social workers and teachers.
My mom sent nasty messages. However, my best guy friend read one of them and said he, as a parent would have said the same thing. So I thanked him for his input and moved on. Maybe, I AM the problem? BUT if I had a child, who came to me with the words that I used, I would have had a totally different reaction.
I am not really ok, I am scared, to be brutally honest. But I know, without doubt, that my last position was not a good fit.
