I left a job I didnt want to leave over a year ago. Basically forced out by a new bullying manager who had it in for me. Life was made so intolerable that I saw no choice but to go.
But I had settled there was happy there (until the last year) had lots of friends and alot of fond memories there. It was the best place I had ever worked until this experience at the end. I actively enjoyed going to work and looked forward to going in and seeing my colleagues and enjoyed my work.
The job I moved to next was horrendous and I realised I had made a massive mistake in leaving my old job. Then I lost my new job as unless you have worked somewhere for 2 years they can get rid of you for no reason which they did.
I torture myself every day for leaving my old job and yearn for when I was there and am kicking myself for leaving.
I spent a large chunk of my life there and it feels like a divorce almost, like a relationship has ended. Is job grief a thing?
