Hey ahdm,

I understand your situation. In fact, I can even relate to that - I am currently on a sick leave because my job ate my sanity. Last night I was awake at night thinking about the first conversation with my boss after I come back. Which is in a month or more!

What I am trying to say is that if you do want to keep this job that is obviously making you unhappy, you have to learn how to separate yourself from it. A job is a job, nothing less and nothing more. You should not worry too much about it because the worst thing that will happen is that you will lose your job. And since you don't like your job already, it is not that bad. I know it is easier said than done. Also try to identify the main stressor at work. Is it the boss? The people? The working hours? The task that you have to do? What would you change in that job to make it less stressful for yourself?

Another thing you should probably do is start applying for other jobs without quitting your current job. It will be much easier to quit if there is another job waiting for you in the meantime.
