At the beginning of April we got a new higher up person. She wasn't my boss and still isn't, but she thought my position should be under her. The department I'm in has been great in supporting me to stay with them.

However, this new person has been manipulative and getting her way. Since I didn't move under her, she created a new position that almost mirrors my job. There is one piece she couldn't get, but she's managing to get to it by withholding a key piece that I need to finish my job. She does give it...eventually. On her terms, basically.

I've been doing this particular job for 15 years and I've never had anything this bad. And I've dealt with some manipulative people.

My boss and the boss over her have tried super hard to make the President see what has happened (not only with this, but with other chaos this woman has created since starting...everything has to be her way) and he is not listening.

Although, I have support from my immediate boss and co-workers (which is great!), I'm at my wits end as to what to do. We are all so tired, honestly, with all the fighting we've had to do with this woman.

Any ideas on how to keep my head up? I get so angry so quickly with her. Just seeing her name pop up and I'm at instant anger.

Things I have been doing:

• Exercise - I run three times a week and walk two other days.
• Sleep - as best as I can. I'm not sleeping well despite going to bed at a decent time. I wake up fretting about work.
• Deep Breathes - have never worked for me. Sometimes drinking water when I'm angry helps.
• Hot Baths

However, this issue is really more psychological and those things are physical. I do not know how to let this go emotionally. I'm doing the best I can with the circumstances I've been given, but I'm still really struggling. I don't want to quit my job. I've been at this place over 16 years all total now. There are great people.

So...again...any ideas?
