I don't feel like harming myself and I am safe. I just feel like quitting my job. Getting depressed all over again. I want to just be in my own little world and sleep.

"I want to just be in my own little world and sleep."

My own thoughts are often quite similar. My dreams while sleeping are typically enjoyable or at least not disturbing...and then I again wake up to reality. I no longer have to work at all and I used to quit jobs at the drop of a hat until I began realizing I was using them up too quickly rather than pacing myself a bit. Be free to make a change whenever you wish, but first be certain the change is actually wise or at least non-destructive.

I been at my job for two years. I think it's time I found another. the hours suck and it is making me depressed. I cried for about 5 hours today. I am mentally exhausted. I wish I could retire!

Then the other problems I am facing makes me feel worst. I feel if I don't quit I will snap and get fired for cussing someone out.

Its such a tough place to be in. Are you able to take a few days sick leave to give yourself some rejuvenation and reflection time?

I like the time off idea, take some annual leave? while you're on it, look at Seek or something.

2 years is long enough. time to move on I think.
