[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be grateful that this person isn't your spouse, or your parent or child or close family member. It has hopefully given you some empathy for how hard it is for the people who live with mental illness and the people around them. It sucks. No excuse for some of her behavior but recognize that some of this is mental illness. [/quote]

OP here. I appreciate all the posts. Yes, I definitely feel for the family members. Having been through angry mean dementia with my MIL who was quite challenging before that, I do have a sense of how hard it is to get the person proper help and be the target of wrath. I could never manage a marriage with what I dealt with from my coworker and I can see how it would be hard to leave someone so hostile and having kids and being forever tied would be heck on earth if the person was not getting proper treatment.

I guess I wish I knew back then. I wish our supervisor didn't gaslight me and would have shown some empathy for me and switched me or let her know it was time to get help. I would not have wasted so much time wondering what is wrong with me and how I caused this and why few people saw what I saw.[/quote]
