Work has been horrid on so many levels. The most recent is a colleague who I helped get in the door who once hired, became the boss' BFF and has been rude and undermining ever since. The boss doesn't see how having a dual relationship with someone on our team is damaging. But it is.

Every day it seems I have to excuse myself to cry in the bathroom --usually it goes unnoticed. Today I stormed out on the boss, cried in the parking lot…eventually came back.

I tried reaching out to family for help but they live far away and my therapist is on the road and frankly not good in a crisis. I heading towards a bad place I don't know what to do.

I am not a hateful or violent person but I want to punch this lady in the teeth. I worry that she is one nasty remark away from blowing away my diplomacy dike.

Please help I don't know where to turn
