I was in a similar situation a year and a half ago. I quit my job with nothing else lined up, despite advice to the contrary, and found a new one in a few months.

It worked out well for me, and I'd probably do it again without much hesitation if it felt necessary.

That's probably not enough to decide if it's worth it for you, but I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents.

Word of caution: the market today is in a completely different regime than a year and a half ago. I would be hesitant to drop out without something lined up. I don’t expect things to improve drastically in the coming 6 months.
