So I was absent from work for a few weeks last year (July 2010) due to being in the hospital and going to therapy three days a week. Well I never really got better from that episode. When I returned to work everyone was MEAN to me. Because I wasn't telling them why I was off they spread rumors that there was nothing wrong with me, they all turned their noses up at me when I went back. It was a hard transition. I broke down again last month and ended up in the hospital, now I'm having ECT as an outpatient. I am scheduled to go back to work November 1st. Not only am I worried about how they would treat me but my postion was eliminated shortly before I went out sick. They changed my title took away 20% of my pay and the best part is Im doing the SAME JOB! I'm still paid pretty well, but I'm bitter and it's hard to find another job making what I make now. Anyone have any advice?
