How to quit my job without burning bridges

Joined this group just to post this! Tl;dr at the bottom!

I hate my job. I've been the maintenance coordinator at a property management company for close to a year. Im also a wife, mother of 3, and have ADHD.

Our maintenace dept (me and 2 maintenace guys for 500 doors) are severely understaffed. The entire workplace is chaotic and reactionary and my boss yells at me multiple times a day, regardless of whether it's my fault. I am 40 hours a week and am not authorized to work overtime, at all (most other employees are salary). Problem is that its physically impossible for me to complete all the work that's expected of me in 40 hrs a week, so I end up staying late. I'm not allowed to come in late and I'm not allowed to leave early, so I'm expected to take long lunches to even out my hours. Once it was unavoidable, and I had 8 hrs overtime in 2 weeks. My immediate boss (VP) was well aware of this, but her boss (Prez) held my overtime pay while I had to sit through an hour long meeting about it. I was told that they will not pay me any over time again, no matter what, unless it was preapproved. The next day I left exactly on time and my boss was mad at me for it.

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child, but hadn't been medicated in a 25 years. I had found coping strategies that allowed me to function successfully in many different fields. Not the case here. I was drowning in the chaos. After 4 months, I started Adderall. I was more focused, lost 25 pounds, and am currently getting only 2-4 hrs sleep a night. The stress/med combo has exacerbated the underlying issues I have of hair pulling and skin picking. I've got powders and hair fibers to cover my bald spots, and antibiotics to help heal sores I've created.

Two months ago I'd decided I couldn't do this anymore. Summer is our busiest time of year and I had sworn to myself that if I was leaving, I'd go either before or after summer, but I'm not going to make it. I'm miserable. I feel like I'm losing my mind. I've been searching. Resumes, applications, phone interviews, even an employment agency. And finally I was offered, and accepted, a job I'm really excited for!! I could cry I'm so happy/relieved!

My current employer is a reputable company that's well known and respected in my city and I will be putting them in a bind by leaving before the summer is over. I plan on giving my 2 weeks notice on Friday and need some advice on the best way to do it. I'm not leaving for more money, to move from part time to full time, or advance my career. I'm also not leaving to be closer to home or my kids. Those have all been my excuses in the past, and they've worked. You cant fault someone for leaving if they're moving up/making more, or advancing their career and being closer to home. I'm leaving because I hate it. I would prefer this bridge to not be completely burned down if possible.

Is there any tactful way to explain why I'm leaving without them hating and/or resenting me hard core at the end of the day?

Tl;dr How do I not burn my bridges with current employer when I give my 2 weeks notice knowing it'll leave them in a bind?
