I had 1 week left but I couldn’t hack it. For the past 2 weeks, every day I would be throwing up at work. I thought I had just ate something bad at work but then it dawned on me that the stress was finally doing my body in. A few days ago the anxiety became so bad that I ended up in the hospital with chest pains. I thought if I at least reduced my hours I could handle the remaining time, but I couldn’t. I messaged my boss at 4am, after throwing up again, that I was done.

Part of me is glad that I finally put myself first, but the other half of me is disappointed that I couldn’t stick it out.
