I just left the hospital recently and one of my big motivations for recovering was that my boss is really supportive and I was looking forward to going back to work which I enjoy and is a positive experience. 

I went back to work and in the space of a few days, my boss said that he is resigning and will be gone soon and we were informed that someone from the company died by suicide so it’s been really upsetting and dark instead. My boss is being replaced by someone described by those who know him as a selfish arsehole who only cares about money.

I have spiralled back so hard into my depression, I just feel absolutely crushed and I feel like my safety net has been violently ripped away. I know that neither of these things are within my control but I am devastated. 

I guess it makes it worse because I opened up to my boss that I really struggle with trusting people because I’m scared they will just leave and he said that I can trust him and he will try his best to support me and be there for me and this conversation was literally a few weeks ago and now he’s announced he is leaving soon. I know it isn’t his job to pick up the pieces and he needs to live his own life too, it just feels like a kick in the teeth because it kinda feels like he made a promise he didn’t intend to keep when he said he wouldn’t leave me as he says he’s been considering this for a few months.

I could just do with any words of support and love right now.
