Should I move/quit my job to make me feel better?

Post by HopefulDreams » Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:34 pm

I have been feeling very anxious from the moment I knew I was moving. I'm not 100% happy in the location, despite the fact that the apartment is beautiful. I often think I should just go buy a house or move out of this apartment and another part of me thinks I should wait until I'm recovered or at least a whole lot better than I am now... Any advice? Move or wait until I'm better? Or should I quit my job? Anyone? :?

Only you can decide what the next step in your life should be. If you feel like a new job or new place is a necessary change in your life, go for it. But don't make a rash decision just b/c you feel frustrated. You may have to filter through your feelings a little bit. Is it your job/place, or is it you that you're unhappy with? Hope this helps : )

Thank you for your response...That's interesting.. because I was very happy with myself, although my marriage has had some bumps and caused us to move to this new location, and then I became very depressed, angry and am still in the process of finding full recovery. (i'm still married) Ultimately, I am a firm believer that if you are happy with yourself, that the materialistic things in life are secondary. But I had high hopes for where I would be in my life right now and am so angry that they haven't come to par and frustrated because part of me feels like they never will... (I'm sure that's teh depression talking)... I'm hoping the tapes, therapy and comfort from family will help solve this battle I've been having for years.
