Basically the title. I worked at a large biopharmaceutical company for 5 years in which my working conditions deteriorated over time where people kept leaving, more responsibilities kept being pushed on to me, lack of promotions, etc.
The final straw was when they hired a new manager. He was fine at the beginning but over time I was constantly berated for the smallest, inconsequential mistakes. Such as wrong formatting on Excel, data not being presented their way, and basically anything I didn't do exactly their way. This continued until I left the company.
Fast forward I move to another company. Whenever I make a small mistake or take my own approach on items, I now get very uncomfortable, anxious, and a bit scared.
The difference now is I am greeted with my new manager providing either good feedback, reaffirm that my mistake was not really a mistake and my approach was sound, no yelling, compliments my data, and a various other positive approaches to my work. I now get complimented for taking my own approach to my work even though it might differ compared to what my manager wanted.
Am I crazy to think I might need therapy to not feel this way? This uneasy feeling lingering in the back of my head is likely not healthy, especially now that I am fortunate enough to not be in that toxic environment.
