The Dissociation Experience Scale

[Pietro]

I am under incredible stress right now at the moment and am going to court soon to face my perpetrator.

Really?! Wow. And, unfortunately, this is over a week ago -- did it happen yet?

If I remember correctly, this was poorly handled by the company, and they had to do some damage control, right? Regardless, it doesn't matter what those bas***d's think. Wrong is wrong. You deserve your day in court, and you deserve the right to present your case. The company is crazy for protecting someone who was a predator and a liability to them. I hope it goes/went well. :)

We have all the documents into court but of course the company side is late. They were supposed to meet some time table and they did not. They were supposed to provide my lawyer with their documents. No surprise to me because I see it as another way for them to control things.

My doctor wants me on new medication because she thinks my anxiety is too high and there are other medications that may help with the anxiety and depression at the same time. To be truthful nothing has really helped. Most of them have made sleeping or anxiety worse or I feel agressive on some. My doctor as well does not think I should be in the same room as the perpetrator. I am angry I have lost my job and everything I worked for and this creep was allowed to commit crimes during working hours and so many people knew it and thought he was untouchable. I do regret going forward in regards to the financial and emotional losses. My husband has put on over a 100 pounds and I am just over 100 pounds when I used to be a healthy 120 pounds.

I had a not so great childhood but I was highly functioning until this creep stalked me at work and would not leave me alone. He would call other people who worked with me if he could not get me at my desk to find out where I was. He called me at home. He not only did this to me but other women. They are going to try and say none of it happened and I am sure there are women I used to work with who are afraid to say what happened in case they get reprimanded or fired if they say something.

Sleep in non-existant but my doctor told me to take a full dose of an anxiety med an hour before bed a sleeping pill. I slept like a rock a couple nights but did wake up with nightmares one night. She told me to do the breathing response method when I wake up. I tried it and am going to keep on the path of being on these meds just to try and get rest as otherwise some nights I only sleep 3 hours and I am not able to function well enough on that.
