I quit my job

Today is my final day at work. I have 9 years in here, and now I'm out. I felt I wasn't learning anything new at work, there was no opportunity for improvement or promotion, and my motivation had waned. Before leaving, I felt scared about the uncertainty of unemployment and the lack of immediate income. But if I don't leave, I will slowly be dying from this job. And finally, I talked with my boss and he also agreed with me. He felt very regretful but also glad that I could actively seek a new opportunity, something he was unable to do at my age.
For 9 years, I have used Japanese day by day at work, I even speak Japanese unconsciously at home with my wife (my wife and I work at the same company). As a result, my other language skills, English and Korean, have declined. I've almost forgotten Korean grammar, and my English fluency has decreased. During the upcoming unemployment period (maybe a month), I will try to improve that, first with English.
Hope I will be better soon by writing every day.

I have 9 years in herebeen here for 9 years, and now I'm out.

But if I doidn't leave, I willould slowly be dying from this job.

You've established that you've already left, so better to use this tense

He felt very regretfuldisappointed but also glad that I could actively seek a new opportunity, something he was unable to do at my age.

We wouldn't really use regretful in this situation

Thanks!!! So could you let me know when I use regretful instead of disappointed?

Regretful gets used when you feel remorse about some actions (usually your own). Like if your actions caused harm to someone and you're unhappy about that. There's a sense that, if you were in the same situation again, you wouldn't take the same actions again.

Disappointed is more sort of moderate unhappiness about the outcome. e.g. the outcome might not be what you wanted, but not because you feel like you've done anything wrong.
