I've been thinking, my job causes a lot of stress for me. I don't want to say I hate my job but I know I'm settling with what I do. You see about two years ago I was laid off and had to settle with the job I currently have.
Sometimes I just wanna quit and start over. The only thing holding me back is a car payment. Would it be so bad if i just sold the car, quit my job and started over, career wise?

That's an answer you really need to ask yourself. If you're stressed about having the job, how will not having a job in an economy where there are no jobs feel?

I'm not doing what i love at the moment, but I am employeed, I have a place to live and I can enjoy myself a bit. I live within my means and that's fine.

Why not look for another job and hold off quitting your current one until you have a new one. It would be unfortunate if you left your job and ended up being unemployed for months and being unemployed may have a negative effect on your mental health.
However if your current job is so bad that it's already affecting your mental health then that may be a different matter.

Right now I'm having a anxiety attack at work. I'm staying relaxed and know it will pass. When I have an anxiety attack or panic attack, I always feel like I need to run to a safe place.

Anyway, Thank you for your feedback guys! I obviously didn't think this through. Dont want to be unemployed and then create more anxiety :(
