Thank you, @TunedOut.

I greatly appreciate your kind words and your POV.

I have had many challenges lately - one after another after another. I wonder if my PTSD was triggered by the bullying I experienced in the job I just quit and if that somehow led to my hospitalization.

And yes, those two higher ups who had caused trouble for me in my last job were both fired! I cannot even believe it. My CEO and HR knew they were causing trouble for me, and now that they're gone, they've asked me to return to work for them.

I do hope that my new supervisor is far more supportive. I do believe that the work environment will be far less toxic now and far more manageable now that those two are gone.

In the job I just quit, it was far too stressful and hardly manageable. I am so happy I have left!

I thought I was far stronger than I actually am though. I feel SO vulnerable, after this last hospitalization. ARGH.
