As long as you have a financial buffer that will tide you over for a while (until you re-calibrate and perhaps find something else), it may be a good idea.
Like I said, I'm in the same boat. I'm a math teacher but the job just never ends. It's 12-16 hours a day, all in, day after day - marking, planning, phone calls, evenings weekends. Here in Ontario, they keep you as a 'temporary' to avoid paying benefits. On top of that, the students hate you, the parents hate you, and society hates you. Actually, I'm surprised I made it this long!! Many teachers in my area seem to show signs of clinical depression.
