I did the same. I quit without a new job to go to. I had planned to quit for months before I actually did, but job searching while I was stressed was adding to my stress. It just wasn't working. I had enough savings and I knew my skills were in demand so I quit.

I recovered for a couple months before I started job searching again. Within a month of starting the job search, I had a new job.

I think quitting without a new job isn't always a dumb thing to do. I think in our cases it was the smart thing to do.
