I am very unhappy at my current job, I need to leave it because I can’t handle it much more. The longer I stay, the more unhappy I get and the more it’s affecting my personal life. I was recently scouted for a new job, it is a great opportunity and will be a huge step up in my career. The only issue is, I would be moving to the other side of the country
My girlfriend relies on me almost entirely for her happiness. She has severe depression and anxiety, she still lives at home and she is basically the main caregiver at home to her family who are all unhealthy, which makes her home life very stressful. My girlfriends health has started to decline as well and she has been to the ER multiple times in the last few months. And she also had to have an emergency surgery recently too. She has been pretty much perpetually sick or injured our entire relationship and I feel like I am her caregiver as well.
She has been really down and she was supposed to hang out with her friends this past weekend but they all bailed on her because they had other plans. I went and we still made the most of it, but she was really down that none of her friends came over to keep her company. Honestly, her friends are horrible and I’ve never liked them.
But I am honestly getting overwhelmed in the relationship, and basically every aspect of my life is now stressful. I need to leave my job, unfortunately that is my top priority. But I am terrified about what it will do to my girlfriend? Her happiness is almost entirely reliant on me, and it’s just too much…I want to be there to support her, but it’s nearly constant and I don’t have the energy anymore to even keep myself happy because my energy is being spent on everyone else. If I get the job, I am taking the job… but how should I handle this?
