I'm on the verge of quitting a job or getting let go, because I've experience harassment and bullying for over a year. When I started to speak up for myself is when things became worse (well less anxious for a while since I was finally on my own side), but those toxic people around me including my management have been throwing me under the bus and trying to get me fired with reason (even though it's all unsubstantiated examples of poor performance).
It's now in the hands of HR and I just want to be free of all of this. I don't want to be left without a paycheck suddenly, even though the husband says we'll be fine for a time, and part of me doesn't want to let them scapegoat me. That was ch
I don't have anyone else to talk to about this at the moment so I'm hoping someone here can understand.
I'm feeling really discouraged, anxious, fearful, full of grief and depressed about what I'm now confronting is more unprocessed trauma requiring professional help, particularly EMDR as recommended by my psychiatrist.
I'm very aware of EMDR, what it is and how it works. I've had multiple sessions of EMDR with a couple of different therapists, but unfortunately, both of them stopped after just a few sessions and I'm certain it has to do with the fact that I would often get flooded with emotions and overwhelm. Before those experiences I felt really hopeful with going through EMDR

I just gave a 2 week notice to my employer today and received an email from HR soon after that noted the exiting steps. One of those steps is that vacation will not be paid out. I have 96 hours accrued and had I known that they were going to refuse to pay out for my vacation I would have taken all of it already.
- I understand that depending on the state, employers may or may not have to pay out for vacation time, but who's state is it dependent on? The employers or the employees?
- Do I have any legal standing to press for my vacation to be paid out?Without giving too much away, my employer is based in UT and I am in AZ. I'm seeing that AZ doesn't have to pay out for vacation/PTO, howeve
I was diagnosed with ADHD early this year in April from a Neurofeedback Specialist who also is a psychologist. I did pay a decent amount of money out of pocket to have the neurofeedback specialist do the testing for diagnosis (I didn't know much about my options at the time).
I sheepishly asked him some months after going for neurofeedback treatments if I could have a copy of my ADHD diagnosis documentation and he just said that I didn't need it, that once you start taking medication for it then you just have the psychiatrist provide documentation. Since he was the one who diagnosed me I felt it wasn't right to say I didn't need it. I don't want to have to worry about some future provider
At age 30 I developed Panic Disorder and crippling anxiety. I had lost 40 lbs and was severely under weight and struggling to even eat. That's when I found out I had cPTSD and it's been a process of tons of therapy, drugs, daily practice in order to recover. I had cut contact with my mother (she was the most triggering thing) once I realized how she was preventing me from healing.
Even though I've had my mom's number on block my phone loves to still allow her to leave voicemails and sometimes I have trouble not listening. This time she said she felt she could help me and if I would contact her she would share her newfound information with me. I finally broke my no contact rule and sent
So this is the first time I’ve shared here after lurking here for years, and this time I just really want to share this with someone.
To give you context, I went no contact with my borderline mother almost 2 years ago after I was diagnosed with panic disorder, general anxiety and cPTSD (at age 32). It became clear in my therapy and recovery process that maintaining contact with her was detrimental to my mental/emotional health. She knew all the right triggers and pain points, strings to pull and I felt I was going crazy. The constant invalidation and rejection of my own feelings/experiences from childhood and their affects on me today were only setting me back in my healing. So I made
