End of the road

Today, I seriously considered stepping in front of a car so that I could miss a few days of work. FML

Satisfy that urge by stepping in front of a parked car and then turn around and walk to the nearest employment center. No job is worth your mental health

Sounds to me like you should start sending in resumes if you're that unhappy with your current work place...

I k now that feeling well OP. The only words of wisdom I can offer, since I'm doing it now, it send out resumes and see if you can get something else while working at my shitty job. I still need a pay check to pay bills. You could try doing that and see what happens. Unless you really don't give any *****, you just quit and search for a job everyday.

I used to teach. It was not a good fit for me. I'd go skiing on the weekends and deliberately ski in terrain that was a little outside my comfort zone, because if I broke a bone or two, at least I'd get a few days off while I was in the hospital! I finally realized that this maybe wasn't a healthy way to be, and when a position opened in library services, I applied. I had a good enough rapport with the director that she unofficially hired me as soon as I turned in my application but left the job posting up until I could finish out the semester...we agreed that my leaving less than a month before finals would be a dick move, lol. I've worked in libraries ever since, and I love it. You might not get that lucky in your first job after this, OP, but whatever you do will be better than a job that has you contemplating self harm. Best of luck.

there's a 70-30% chance you'll miss work permanently if you do that.

I've been there. Trust me, it can get better! I moved from a job I was miserable in to a much better one and didn't look back. It made me realise that you shouldn't put up with being so unhappy at work. Best of luck, OP!

Wow.. First off you should never come to that.. I felt the same as you last summer and it was damaging my health.. I did the right thing and left.. No job is worth that

Please get help, I was in that place recently and as soon as I was out it was better. You're not trapped, no-one can force you to stay there if you really don't want to be there. See if you can get signed off and find a professional to talk to. Just don't stay there with those thoughts, you're better than that, you deserve better.

Hey I know the felling last tear I was glade to be in ICU and didnt need to go to work.... Its not worth it.. Leave and dont look back
