Hello fishes,

I am just venting here as I am struggling after I had a head injury a few weeks ago.

I feel I have been berated for my temporary disability from the senior leaders in HR to the vendor case manager who was involved to approve my health leave.

All of this has aggravated my symptoms and left me severely debilitated and I don't know what to do anymore. I do understand that this is all temporary but I feel I am being treated with minimal human decency. (Contd...)

(cont'd.)
The worst part is that everyone who has been involved in the process so far is a woman.

I have been made to feel as if I brought everything upon myself.

For example, case manager, the woman, asked me, "I have been told that you have refused to work since your injury"

When asking HR for directions and clarifications on processes, the Director called and asked, "I have heard you are calling my staff multiple times, what is going on?"

Ok, whom am I supposed to call on processes with client communication, HR process, my responsibilities when I was just left in the dark.

I am back in ER for the 4th time just because my concussion symptoms got worse.

I feel so unsupported and I don't know what to do anymore

I know I’m overthinking this, health comes first, etc…but I’m still so scared to tell people.
