Here is an interesting update for you. I talked to my supervisor about what happened yesterday at the training, and he called it a "minor concern," which is a good way of looking at it. He and I both agreed that the lady who came up with that exercise in regards to my actions could have been completely avoided. I did learn that the next time for me is to not "test...

I ran across this while doing some research on my condition and reasons for it. I'm a firm believer that toxic situations contribute to Fibromyalgia and overall general mental and physical health. I have highlighted in red the parts that pertain to me and my experience with a complete asshole.
