You're like me...Even if I tink long and hard about sumfing and make a wise decision, I still second guess the hell outta my choice. Then I turn into an anxious, quivering puddle of worry and cry a lot.
It was a strange day.
It started with me being backed into a corner with few options. Eventually I had to choose my way out. And though I'm still not sure I made the right choice, I'm so relieved to have escaped the situation that I really don't care. Because when you've had a weight pressing down on you long enough, getting rid of the constant pressure is worth just about any price. I guess I'll celebrate now and worry about the consequences later...
Except...
Now I have the pressure of wondering if I made the correct decision hanging over me.
Crap.
If it's not one thing it's another.
FOREVER!
Sometimes I get obsessed with making the right choice. I'm in Al-Anon and there's a slogan that says, Make a choice and make it work. In other words, just decide that it's the right one. There's no actual right/wrong choices (or very few.) It helps me.
I hope your situation turns out well :)

Ah life. It's one great big choose your own adventure. As long as you didn't make your decision and turn to a page that said "THE END" (which typically involved walking into a cave and getting your head smashed in by a Yeti, Bigfoot or crazed monkey) then you should be good - at least until the next decision which could end with that exact consequence.
Any relief of weight and pressure is worth any future consequences, unless those are more weight and pressure.
