I agree 100% because I went through a similar situation.
After working for 5 years for a corporation, I realized that I either need to RUN from that company or DIE there. 2 years prior to this realization, I went to a job interview and I BOMBED! I couldn't understand why I sucked so bad in that interview, because I was a top employee (PHP Developer) in my company!
So after that interview, and for about a year, I worked on catching up after work hours. It took me around ONE year to catch up a little bit and then I went to another interview. This time, I did much better, but still, I didn't pass. Both the interviewer and me myself realized that I need some more time to catch up.
So couple of months ago, I left the company and started freelancing to finance my catching up process. Getting rid of all the "corporate junk" is really paying off almost a month after quitting. I feel much more refreshed and focused.
Don't wait to die, it would be too late. As soon as you smell the stench of death, RUN AWAY!
