Self Destructive Behavior
It completely breaks my heart to watch someone that is in a down spiral of self destruction...and there is nothing you can do for them.
I have an employee that has been in a down funk for the past couple of months. Between her family, her drinking and her run through distasteful men I have watched her tear herself apart. I have spoken to her many times about what’s going on with her... she’s then better for a while and then right back. Because I
see her potential I keep trying to help her. But she keeps going down...
It’s now to the point that if I help her then she see’s that as a shot at her because she’s not doing the job. There is a point where you stop and draw a line and stand your ground to never cross it...or you will be sucked into the downward spiral. They can let you help them get better or you let them go...and let them choose... and no matter what you go with it.
It’s hard to let go...but it’s better than to be sucked into the spiral!
Until tomorrow
