Quit my job today...

Hi everyone. I finally quit my job - which was REALLY hard for me to do, I cried so much Sunday that I made myself sick! To make a long story short - I am an engineer who hates being an engineer but do it because my parents want me to be. I know that's dumb, but I've always done everything to make them happy. I'm going through a tough time with them, and I have been MISERABLE at my job lately. When I told them I was going to quit, I got yelled at for over an hour - they called me crazy, said I was making a huge mistake, I wasn't independant, etc etc. Haven't talked to them since, and that's hard for me because I usually talk to my mom everday. My husband just really wanted me to quit, and he is SO supportive. I really want to work with kids, I have always had a passion for that. And - we want to get pregnant like NOW, but have been putting it off because of everything with my stomach and all....so I thought that this would give me some time to really figure out what I can and can't eat. At work I was eating the same 'safe' things EVERYDAY, and it's getting so old.

Anyways- just looking for some reassurance because I'm feeling so guilty right now. I do feel relieved, and this will take away lots of stress - but now I'm stressed about my parents and money for awhile!

Hope everyone had a great day!
