Sometimes taking a break is a very healthy way in getting ourselves better. Doing what you feel is the right thing is the best way to get back to normal.

Taking a leave of absence may be your best bet; if you recover within that timeframe, you'll still have your job. If you don't, perhaps after that time you will at least be coping better

Think what's the best for you. Are you sure you want to leave this job or the only thing you needed is a break?

Take some time to focus on yourself. Figure out what it is that's keeping you from functioning to the best of your ability. It's okay to take time for you!

There is no shame in feeling like you need some time to focus on yourself. Most doctors are understanding, and explaining that you're having a hard time means that many will write you a note to say that you need some time off work. If that's what you need to get your thoughts in order, then that's what you should try.

It's really up to you, but taking a break from work might be the best for your health. If work is making you feel stressed or negatively at all, it would be appropriate to find the root of the problem, and if you're having trouble functioning properly, it would most likely benefit you to take a second to analyze why you are having difficulty.

Quitting jobs can generally be really big choices to make. A good start could be to beginning to take leave and if you feel like you still are not receiving what you would like to be receiving to then think about further action.

If you have the right to take some time off and seek the help and support that you need then I would advise using it, but make sure you use the time wisely.

Maybe taking a leave will allow you address the issue at hand, then you could go from there.
