I need to quit my job, it's killing me inside, but I need to take a break, not t!


Question:

I need to quit my job, it's killing me inside, but I need to take a break, not take a job out of desperation.

I have been working since I was 15 years old.My mom is a basketcase on disability who kicked me out at age 17.My dad is a miserable workaholic who will do anything to save a dime.My dad feels guilty for my mom kicking me out so he has bought beater cars for me for the last 12 years.He holds the car over my head while he calls me a stupid child (I'm a 30 year old woman).I am smart and have survived on my own,graduated college, and other things I am proud of.But I have never had time to really figure out what I want.I hate my job,I want to quit and just take a break.So I can think and relax.I don't even know what that feels like.My stomach is in knots and my life has hit rock-bottom.How can I do this?Should I file for unemployment?How can I survive without going into debt?I just recently escaped from debt,and I don't want to go down that path again.I need to rest.I can't stand coming to this office hell,yet I don't want to jump into another job out of desperation for money again. Help.


Answers:

I have worked like it or not for over 30 years to prevent debt even though I am dire need of a rest

ask for a 2 week leave under FLMA ( no you do not get paid, but you will still have a job to come back to)

If you quit a job.. you are not eligible for any unemployment for 12 weeks ( its the penalty for quitting a job)
