That's a very long time. I'm glad you don't work there anymore. I still get high levels of anxiety when someone, even a friendly person, from my old workplace contacts me, because I feel like they'll ask me to come back. I mean, obviously I'd say no.
It's crazy how long these things can stick with us. I quit that job 4 years ago, and it still makes me anxious even thinking about it. None of us should ever have to stick with a job that has that type of long lasting negative effect. I'm very sorry you went through that, and for 20 years even..

This is the first I've heard of exploding head syndrome. Sounds like a very uncool condition
