As someone who was in a very similar situation, I feel for ya – I quit my job, no backup plan and became a substitute teacher for about three months. Not sure what the qualifications are in your area so not sure if it’s a viable option for you – but it was easy to get certified, super low stress, was enough money to keep my afloat and gave me the free time to look for new positions without the stress of my nightmare job. Tip though, would be to stick to high school subbing, as elementary school subbing just feels like babysitting but worse.
