I understand that feeling very well. I went through a similar situation for months before I lost my job job in November after requesting short-term disability bc i couldn't cope. Not to suggest at all that thats what would happen to you though, the company i worked for i evil. Turns out it was probably the best thing for me. So now I'm still not working, and i have to say I really can't imagine trying to work again right now. I feel like it's the right thing, but I'm having a terrible time bc i know everyone around me is wondering when I'm going to get back out there, like "ok, you took some time off, now you should be all rested up" or whatever. I dont know how to handle this except just keep trying to tell myself that I am taking care of myself and I should feel good about it.

btw my son and I are living with my parents right now, and it's my dad i feel this vibe from the most...more on my mom and dad to come I'm sure.

Seems to me that if something is telling you that working is really detrimental to you right now, you should listen. Maybe not quit, just take some time off, maybe a leave of absence for a few weeks or so and then see how you feel.

take care...
