I got out in 97 after 12 yrs (E-7). Everyone, military and civilian told me what a big mistake I was making. The day I woke up free from military commitment (March 13, 1997) I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I did go back and work as a GS employee for the Army and now have 24 yrs towards retirement. Only you know what the best choice/option is for you. Don't stay and be miserable just because others tell you to, do what is right for you and it will all come out in the wash, so to speak.
