Nik,
First of all, let me say a vicarious "OUCH!". I hope they can clear these mysterious problems up soon and you can feel better.
Second, dealing with bosses is a big challenge sometimes. But it sounds like you do have some allies and sources of support around you there at work. Use that support to bolster yourself for dealing with the boss stuff.
Finally, the past few days I've been thinking about you and feeling so proud of you! Just think--you really have worked hard and made huge changes in your life. How hard it is to go from losing a job, losing your confidence after being out of work for a long time, and then using your creativity and wits to land first one interesting and "off the beaten path" job and then to jump from there to a bigger and more challenging one!
I think it was good for you to get that mentor at work--a mentor can be so important in supporting you in early stages of your career.
And I know how challeging it is when you don't always get the support and encouragement you need and deserve at home (with S.O.s having difficulty adjusting to your new work life outside the home, etc.).
So I am very proud of you!!!!
Get and stay healthy!!
Noa (co-captain of your fan club!)
