Ok, here's some advice from an Internet random person.
1. Yes, if you can take some time.
2. Do some crying. You probably feel depressed, burnt out, stressed out. Crying is a great release.
3. You don't need to do anything right now it's ok not to do anything right now.
4. If you're under personal financial stress try and resolve that. Perhaps move somewhere cheaper.
5. You probably don't need to think too much about what went wrong right now, maybe take some time first?
Realize that there will be a time when the stresses of this business will be long behind you, and you won't feel it with the same intensity anymore. Maybe read some good books, it can really help you feel alive again.
All this is very biased. It's based on how I would be feeling, if I'd gone through the same process as you.
Good luck!
- nbashaw 9y agoThank you! This is very thoughtful. I'm definitely taking some time and thankfully not under too much financial stress. But honestly I actually feel really fine. This happened a couple weeks ago and I have had some time to process it. Writing the post was super cathartic.
- yawz 9y agoRegarding #5, I humbly agree that taking some time might be beneficial. We all suffer from "Focusing Illusion": Nothing in life is as important as you think it is while you are thinking about it.
