I still remember the feeling of one day at work when my supervisor made me write out a list of my personality faults. It really ####ed me up hard to the point where I was pretty convinced that it wasn't worth living anymore. At this point I managed to find support systems (similar to what you are doing right now) and slowly started to change things. I gave up on my initial goal of becoming a police officer and started working towards a new goal of working as a nurse. Things still aren't perfect in life but I look back to that dark spot where I was and it sounds a lot like where you are right now. I don't know if that helps or not but if you want to send me a PM and we can talk off line about things.

2. Sitting someone down to list their faults? Thats how people get punched in the face. Thats a face punching offence.

Was your supervisor named...Mike Babcock? Sounds very Babcockian.
