hi folks
by the end of november my garden railroad will be gone. most of my g-scale models are already sold. i will just keep a few cp rail models. but i will continue my n-scale modelling.
i have a few horrible months behind me. the emergency crew had to pick me up several times. i suffer from panic attacks caused by a massive burn-out. currently i'm on medical treatment calming me down. i could sleep the whole day. according to the doctors it will take months for full recovery. ok, it took me years to come this far. i did some calculations. in the last 15 years i worked some 12'000 hours overtime. last 12 years i additionally was on stand-by 24 hours a day 365 days a year. most of the time i did sleep less than 5 hours a day. now my body seems to strike back.
this made me take some decisions. i will move by the end of november. after more than 10 years i will finally live together with my girlfriend and her kids. i will have a hobby room suitable for n-scale.
then i canceled my mba study. this will greatly reduce stress and leave a lot more of freetime. more time for relaxing, spend with the family, spend with trains.
i will work 50% for an unlimited amount of time.
i will do some sports.
i will take more care of my work-life balance.
i will finally start to listen to my body/health.
i will occasionally read the posts in this forum. but most likely i will not be able to contribute much.
take care you all. thanks for the good time i had here.
