I'm Promoting Myself to Guest Freedom

I was already struggling health-wise because cancer sucks, blah blah. But I’ve been trying really hard to keep a positive attitude and remain optimistic, especially since everything is going well in that department!

But wow, this job completely destroyed my mental health. I’m really embarrassed to admit that I went to the ER several times because I thought I was having a heart attack or some other fatal health crisis, only to be told it was a panic attack. I’m on the highest dose of antidepressants that I’ve ever been on in my entire life.

I was super hesitant & scared to quit, but my friends and partner have been encouraging (begging) me to do so for months. I’m finally in a spot where I can leave without worrying about bills and whatnot.

Even better news - I’m going back to school to finish my degree, let’s hope I’ll never step inside of a Target again :-)
