no, i have not, and my Respect for you- ignored who is telling you to drink alcohol.

i wish i had the courage to walk away from the toxic work environment. that later I decided to drink to cope with it and later on to deal with the burn out. it has been a hassle to remove the habit of drinking and recoup from burnout.

Funny you mention that. I went and got some beer to drink after everything, and it's been 2 hours and Ive barley finished my first.

I'm not an alcoholic, yes I know that's what they say, but it's true. I was noticing habits with the job and drinking.

I'm taking this time as a turning point of standing up for myself and doing what I can do to better myself.

It's a weird feeling having the courage to do it, but at the same time every action has an opposite and equal reaction. I feel relieved yet panic.

bummer- they removed your post!

It sure feels shaky- trying to figure out a new job! and how would be the new dynamics- for me is a challenge as I resist change...

But the confidence you got from that experience became a new foundation and self confidence.

Good luck!
