You mention a career which I have now come to loathe.

I would not want to discourage you from making changes that you feel will make things better, but there is the tendency sometimes to see a possible solution and grasp it as the only solution.

May we assume that you have spent some time in considering why you no longer enjoy your present career, and have looked for ways to make it, again, more rewarding? And have you looked at a "lateral advancement" to somewhere where you might enjoy your present career more?

Assuming that you've fully considered all your options, then I'd encourage you to get out of a bad situation, and into something you like. I would encourage an open mind, though, until you are ready to make the "big commitment."
