Hi,
I'm back-actually back with a post, and not just reading. I am having a terrible time with my boss and I always have to be so careful with hiding the bipolar that I just want to go to work and scream! Btw, I am a teacher, so this wouldn't be good. This lady has had it out for me for two years. I could go into many details that you wouldn't believe and maybe think that it is the crazy me-I do!-but yesterday almost did really made me believe I am indeed losing it mentally at work. First she told me I am the most difficult person to work with in the entire building. She also told me she understands nothing I say because we speak completely opposite languages, and....this is the one I can't get over....she said that last year I called her a *****. I actually allowed myself to be convinced of this by her, but later I realized that I would never do this to anyone in her position. And I began thinking about it-why didn't she fire me then? Anyway, now I am stuck with this. We have no unions in my state, no tenure, and if I make a big deal, my word against hers. This is the first time I have ever considered working in my diagnosis in some way but I don't know of any wisdom there. It would only really make me look less stable than she is. Bluemountains |

Do you have the ability to go to HR with your issues?

The safer option is to go to our education association if we're members because there is an outside level of legal representation. I will probably have to go this route. Of course I am depressed with this outside stuff, as will as trouble with meds. For me, this means that it is almost impossible to move, let alone think about how to get some resolution. Today I am at home because I have a pdoc appointment later. This should be a good thing, but I haven't seen her for three months and I have no desire to talk because that means crying and I can't stand the look of false concern.

Strange!
Here I was all worried about the bully boss and I almost ended up in the hospital! I learned that I had better keep my emotions in check with the pdoc over situations. Now I am practically on house arrest-no car, no work, everyone's drugs, alcohol, and such are in check, and someone with me at all times. Bluemountains |
