As a general manager, I had it all, a 6 figure income,and home,loving husband.
7 months ago, I was held up by an armed robber, at gunpoint. One of my staff, pregnant at the time, lost her baby since. I can not return to this location for fear and have developed Post Traumatic Stress disorder. I guilty, unstable, sick, depressed,and have not felt like going on with life. I keep "waiting" for the "next" crime to occur to me. I know this may sound like I'm feeling sorry for myself, but I just can't go back to this job...I'm at my wits end, as I feel I need to work to support my husband who works 14 hour days to make ends meet. We are in huge financial debt with credit cards, line of credit,2 homes with mortgages, all of which were no problem when I had this job. It seems futile to go on, yet I feel guilty for not holding up my side of the financial burden and don't wnat to let my husband carry this added stress. Any thoughts?
