Crazy thing is I worked at a treatment center for juvenile sex offenders and over time the clients have gotten worse, major mental illness and major histories of violence. Ive always loved my job and im good at it. But it amazes me that the staff can be assaulted, abused and mistreated and an agency FILLED with treatment providers does absolutely nothing to take care of their own employees. Feeling brokenhearted and lost right now.
Hi Newfie girl,

I'm sending out a hug to ya . So sorry to hear about how you were treated. Its good your talking about it.
Maybe it was time to quit?
Think about the darn stress and risk of getting hurt. Already your hurt and nobody physically hurt you, however the emotional hurt is harder. So Hugs are in order, and you need them and plenty of people to talk to! Heres another one,

Oh yeah and here's a smiley for ya too
Grandma
Hugs from:
