It happened about six months prior to losing my job. It was a result of another communication issue (drat those!), and I was left to ponder over its consequences. As I was working, a quiet thought slipped into my mind that I needed to leave, get another job, stay home, whatever. I needed to get out of the situation. It ended up a fleeting thought though as I was in the middle of dealing with the usual boat load of work. I dismissed the thought as a fleeting expression of frustration, but in the end, it proved that my brain was giving me a warning signal.
Not listening to that voice let to six months of misery for me. I had time and time again moments of crying, but I had never cried so frequently as I did then. I have considered the possibility that I was leading down the road to depression (if I wasn't there already), and it was only by the mercy of my mistake and job loss that I was redirected away from that path.
So, if you get that intuitive message, listen to it.
