I was in a really bad place mentally and physically when I made the decision to quit, and this was after taking two days off for my symptoms. I simply could not muster the ability to spend any more time in that toxic environment in the condition I was in. I'm sure I did extensive damage to my reputation and am deathly afraid of this coming back to haunt me in the future. It may seem overly dramatic, but I've been bed ridden over this situation for 5 days with even worse depression than what I was trying to escape from the job. I cannot believe I did this.
The way you can easily spin doctor why you left that company is: I left for health reasons that prevented me from focusing on completing my work.

That's literally ALL you have to tell people. They don't need to know you hated that company and that it was toxic to your well-being. Just tell them you left for health reasons and leave it at that. Done. Spin-doctored.
