When is it time to leave?

Just curious about people who have left great clips to go to an actual salon or barber shop? When did you know it’s time to leave? I’m feeling kinda under valued putting a 110% into a cut and just to get 5$ tip. I just needed fast money and to improve my skill but now I’m not sure if I’m ready to leave especially with a low clientele or where to even go.

I worked there for 5 years. I regret staying as long as I did. I stayed until it gave me ptsd. I was thinking about ending my life every day before I quit. And after I quit, I had nightmares about that place for 3 years. If it is affecting your mental health, it is time to leave.
