Thanks, Hvert. You're echoing everything everyone close to me has been saying for months, "Get a new job!"

Sorry, it took me so long to respond. Internet availability has been sporadic.

A new wrinkle occurred today and has basically helped me make up my mind and while I have not secured a new job, yet, I plan on putting in my notice on Monday.

I was basically accused of violating a company policy with no proof. I may be anxious and depressed, but I do not violate company policies. I was (inwardly) outraged and offended, and of course I've been doing nothing but obsess over this all night and I will probably obsess over it all weekend. But, this is the last straw. If it's not one thing, it's another.

I consulted with my mother and she's completely supportive of me putting in my notice, even if I don't have another job lined up. She normally wouldn't encourage me to do something like that, but she fears for my mental health more than she cares about my job and financial stability.

My husband...not supportive of this decision. Financially, we should be okay until I find another job. I have a little savings, we should be getting a nice tax refund and my mother is our landlord and said she would forgive our rent until I found another job. So, I'm not really seeing a problem with it. Never mind that he's walked off at least two jobs without notice since we've been together, without having another job lined up. I don't see how this all can work if he's not in my corner.

So, I got a third opinion from my sister and she's pretty much of the opinion that I should do whatever I think is right. She was really no help, but she thinks my boss is a psychopath (and I told her not to insult psychopaths).

How do I know if I'm making the right decision? I can't bear the thought of trying to keep myself together more than the required two week notice. If there a light at the end of the tunnel, then I can do my darnedest to stay polite and professional for the next two weeks. My husband's displeasure over all this is making a difficult situation more difficult.
