[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 694996, member: 18958"] My Gosh, you are a genius. I felt this but I never thought it. Because I have been forced to be so aggressive I am condemning myself as a shrew or a man-killer or some other, and M and my son are helping me do it. M keeps telling me I need to turn into this woman at work. I looked up workplace bullying and interrogation is what the young man did. He aggressively interrogated me as if I had committed a crime, as if I had done something bad, and was doing something bad--when it was a possible difference in opinion about the treatment of a patient. Because by law I have 3 months to decide on a diagnosis and a plan, but I can be overruled in both because the actual treatment changes are OKed in a committee of which I am one member but not the chair. If they want to overrule me it is easy. And they can easily fire me. I have no job protections. There is no reason to bully me, except for his desire to and need to do it. I have no power, you see. Only by my professional role which he can neutralize. But he has no right or power to change my mind by force--which he was trying to do. He was trying to intimidate me. And he succeeded but not to the point i would give up what I thought. What arrogance on his part. What is the win, here? The more I held on the worse it got, like a cross-examination. And he finally folded, by saying, understand that a supervisor will reverse you. [I]Of course, I accept and understand that.[/I] Is what I said. But that is way different than me giving into your insistence that I deprive a patient of his treatment and crush him because you told me so. [I]I mean, you can do it. But you can't make me do it.[/I] Yes, they were. And I agree with you. What put me over the edge was the awareness that he left one treatment center that had offered treatment with the promise he was going to another--and then did not go. And then, even though we have now in one week destruction of property (mine) and threats of suicide to the psychiatrist--he manipulates so that he can walk away from offered treatment--and comes waltzing back to me, with this "in 2 weeks plan..." when he had treatment arranged and offered and the means to pay for it (I have him on my very good insurance.) He has not come home and his sleeping bag is here. The thought has crossed my mind that he has done something to himself. Oh how hard this is. There is no safe place for me. Thank you very much savior. Your post was extremely helpful, [/QUOTE]
