Wow! Our stories are very similar. I am sorry that happened to you as well. I can't believe how often this happens to us. It seems like they wait for an excuse and jump on the smallest thing. Do you think they are afraid of us or just jump to the conclusion that we are off our meds or something if we plmake a mistake? There are way too many people here this has happened to. I had only been there close to a year. That is the probationary period, so it is much easier to terminate employment before that period is up. I am not permitted the appeal process, unless I feel discriminated against, which I do, but I don't know if I can drag this out anymore. I want to close the door. Even if I hire a lawyer and do all these things, my career is still over. I was very lucky (or so I thought) to get this position. People at my level stay forever, so the jobs are few and far between and I couldn't bear going into private practice again. Im burnt put on that permanently. My psy upped my seroquel so I get to sleep and added Ativan, which helps when I'm at work waiting for the call, which is killing me. Everyone here knows that giant ball of stress that lives in your sternum that sort of perpetually throbs. I don't feel suicidal, though the thoughts are there. It feels more like what happened before I had a psychotic break two years ago. I feel like I was set up to take the blame for other questionable things that had been happening there. Fortunately I have emails that dispute their claims. But if course, I have BP, so I have to wonder if I am being paranoid

The magician seemed to promise that something torn to bits might be mended without a seam, that what had vanished might reappear, that a scattered handful of doves or dust might be reunited by a word. But everyone knew that it was only an illusion. The true magic of this broken world lay in the ability of the things it contained to vanish, to become so thoroughly lost, that they might never have existed in the first place.
