I had to resign to take care of myself and my family. It's been tough to deal with my problems, but also hard to figure out how to word this resignation and unemployment to employers in the future.

I feel like going to a regional is a push back down the stairs, but a move to Spirit, Allegiant, or Frontier would be closer to a lateral move in the mean time. But when I am in a better place to return, I just don't know what the better move would be. Just sucks to take so much time off, when all of these carriers want to see currency and updates in applications. I need to take care of myself, but also put myself in a position where I can provide for my family once better.
