That's fabulous, Tabitha!!! You've been wanting to do that for so long. I know you'll feel rotten for a little while, because change is hard. Even good change.

But you can take this time to assess what you want, and have a whole fresh start. When you think of how many work years we have ahead of us, it makes wonderful sense to take a sabbatical to decide what you want to do with the rest of it.

And it's because of your careful planning that you're able to do it! You haven't been profligate like me. You've carefully assessed the financial situation and discovered that this break is do-able. I'm sure that once the shock wears off you'll do just fine. You and your therapist can come up with some plans so that you don't become too isolated, and some plans to do some career planning. But you don't need to do that yet.

It's scary, but you've done something very nurturing for yourself.
