To the OP: There are pros and cons. If you have done this list and the pros are less than the cons, then you should go with your heart.

I left my job last year due to gross harassment by my boss. If I wanted to I can seek a lawyer. After that incident, my husband recommended that I resign, which I did, but I did not line up my unemployment (which I am still pissed about) and I did seek other positions before I left, but I was under duress and could not make effective decisions.

It took me 7 months to find another job and I hate it to no end. However, the gig is for 9 months then I move on. Been at the job for ~3 months and I already dislike it.

The key is to find what you truly would like to do. And if you live alone, you need to find how you are going to fund your excursion. I had enough for 5 months, then gas prices increased... So inflation must be considered.

If you do are fearful, the biggest fear you could consider is the decisions you make now affect your health in the future. And at the end of the day, the only think you've got is your health. If you do not have that, what do you have. Hating your position is stressful, especially if you cry before going.

You need to find a different career
