So I opened up at work to some people how bad things have been with some higher ups, part of my stress is coming from work and how powerless I am to control a situation that was related to yesterday afternoon.
There was agreement in place to mitigate and manage the situation but that didn't work yesterday and I was subjected to a lot of stress even with the aid of someone with me.
I had to make it clear that I need to be supported at work because inevitably the root cause of the problem is coming from work and they need to support me better because it's coming from work, I don't believe that I should be seeking external help when the problem is actually coming from work.
Just wanted to chime in and say Iโm proud of you for advocating for yourself. โจ
I was talking about it and then I guess it sort of fell out of my brain and mouth and I starting just saying things and was getting emotional about it all.
I felt strongly that I needed to be looked after better.
