I was a manager in a job where I was being bullied and had lost all my confidence. I had nobody to turn in my office, and it was affecting my work, my colleagues and my personal life. I was suffering from stress-related illness and the situation was getting worse and worse, I was worried I was reaching breaking point. Then I met Suzanne who helped me deal with some of the bullying issues at work and gave me more practical measures for dealing with the stress. Within a few days I felt like another person.
