Hi Everyone ~ yeah I love Trees :)

[Treespirit]

Bullying at work was the last thing I expected, or needed in early 2012.  I'd never had a panic attack before then.  Fortunately for me, I've a great clinic close to home, so I reached out for assistance early, and received great support from medical professionals.  I still feel a bit fragile emotionally when I reflect on the last 4 years.  Up until this intense phase with anxiety and depression, I thought if anyone was immune to mental illness... it was me.  Suffice to say, I passed that denial phase a few years ago 😉  If sharing my experiences can help anyone, I'm glad to contribute.

It definitely will you are in the right place to offer your experience and support many will benefit from your experience because workplace bullying is so common and many stories remain untold. I am a survivor of workplace bullying luckily what my boss said he was going to do to me never happened, I left him in lurch before anything else could be said or done. Endured his evil ways for 3 years it was long enough i think, so yes what I'm saying is Ur story will help many here. Good on u for joining the forum and welcome xx Venessa
