It's not going to be disastrous for your career. It will have an impact, but one you can recover from -- if you're lucky, even fully recover.
I quit at 33, didn't work for 3 years, had the best time of my life.
Then I got a fun, flexible job that paid below market, but more than paid the bills, and didn't take up all my time and still allowed me to do what I wanted with a decent-sized chunk of every day.
After a couple of years of that, I ended up with an adult job, and my hours are no longer flexible, but it is fully remote and pays about market for a HCOL area, while I can live anywhere I want in the USA.
- wnolens 4y agoVirtually same life! Quit around 30, didn't work for a full year. Then worked 20h/week for about 2y while I invested the rest of my productive time into hobbies or pet ideas. Then I went back to similar job different company. Took me about 2y to get career back to where I left it, but remote and live somewhere I've always dreamed of.
