Consideration of going full time pro

Since the Chinese New Year, my luck online completely changed and I won tournaments after tournaments and have profited over $4k since 26/1/09. However during this time I received a bad news that I am no longer needed for my company and I will be out of job in March because there is certain regulation that the company no longer requires to have such a position. I could find a job but with the economic concession I don't believe I can get some attractive salary package and if I take another job it is more likely I will have less time to play poker. The alternative is to go to play poker full time and with a large volume of games I should be able to maintain the income, which is job + poker. However I do not know what will be ahead if I play full time, such as:

* Can I overcome the feeling if I am in a huge downswing or long time of not profiting like the period before Chinese New Year?

* Is my health able to play long time without impairing my game too much. I don't have much sickness, but I don't think I am a very healthy person. I will probably require to have regular exercise.

* Will I have less ROI when I play a huge volume? I currently max. 8 tabling playing tournaments and I feel it is the max. no. of tables I can play simultaneously that I can still play flop and if I don't play flop like some of the high volume regulars I believe my ROI will be decreased significantly.
