Ready to quit my job, focus on physical health and pursue something different

I (26F) quit my job this time last year because I was disrespected by my manager who spoke to me less than 5 times 1-on-1 since I joined and had been with the company for 2.5+ years. I let my ego take over and I have no regrets for upholding my self worth. I got into a mostly remote job for the last 9 months that I absolutely hated from day 1. My mental health has been in the mud for such a long time now. I have terrible posture, weak joints, and poor fitness. I want to quit this job and do a martial arts boot camp to recalibrate for at least 3 months. I think when I am older I will hate myself even more for not prioritising my health while I’m still young. i had no problems sleeping until my current job and I was one month…

I have terrible posture, weak joints, and poor fitness. I want to quit this job and do a martial arts boot camp to recalibrate for at least 3 months. I think when I am older I will hate myself even more for not prioritising my health while I’m still young. i had no problems sleeping until my current job and I was one month into it when I noticed visible signs of ageing.

Although I can “cope” with high stress corporate environments I no longer think a corporate job is worth compromising my physical health. I never had dreams of having children so I don’t see me fucking off and doing my own thing to be detrimental to my future prospects of family building.

I don’t think any decent people thrive in law and I’m ready to go in a completely different direction.

Anyone else going through a similar thought process?
