work place bullying from direct manager

[HunnyBunny12]

Hi. I’ve been suffering from anxiety for several years. The anxiety became worse in 2016 when my direct manager bullying got worse. I’ve been told to quit but I make a great wage. I would need to work 3 jobs to make my wage. The added stress of working multiple job could be just as bad. Also, no reassurance that I won’t experience another manager being a bully. I’m doing talk therapy and medication but I am not find relief. I do breathing techniques but doesn’t always help. I’m having problems sleeping because of worrying when the next time the manager will strike again bullying.

Any suggestions is much appreciated. I am feeling overwhelmed and stressing about returning to work Monday.

*Look for a job. Why do you think you can’t make this salary elsewhere? It will at least offer some control.

I’ve been looking for a job. Also have a fear that my next manager will be just like current manager. The panic of worrying is taken it’s toll.

I am suprised in this job climate where so many people need to keep their employees that the manager will still be this way.

Is he a bully with everyone, or just with you? If it's with everyone, you'll have to tough it out, but if it just you, how about a complaint to HR?

I wonder if the company has been asked to cut numbers to save money?

Hi. I’ve reached out to coworkers and it’s just me. I’m writing up my timeline for hr. Working on the timeline causing a lot of stress and caused me to be sick. I left work early several times because of the stress.

I don’t believe it about reducing #. My department down 3 people. Having a hard time trying to fill the position since losing people back in January.
