Difficult work situation

Sorry, posting here for traffic.

4 years ago I was raped by a guy I had a date with. The specifics don't matter. After a few weeks had passed my mental health took a nosedive and I ended up having to see an out of hours GP. The GP basically said 'if that's the way you behave what do you expect?' Which wasn't very helpful.

I was going to make a complaint but with one thing and another I never did.

Now comes the difficult part. I work for a GP practice and she works at the branch surgery linked to mine. So I have to deal with her every week. She's got no idea who I am, but I'm finding it hard to deal with.

One of the people who deals with work rotas knows my story and has said it's affected her view of this GP and it's made her less inclined to go out of her way to help accommodate her annual leave.

I don't know what to do, if anything. I'm worried I've been indiscreet. Leaving isn't a solution, it took me long enough to find this job.

Just pigeon hole her into a category labeled twat in your mind and deal with her if you have to . If ever she asks why you treat her like a twat, pull her aside and politely tell her . She'll probably be mortified. She's not worth any angst, ignore the stupid unthoughtful idiot and enjoy your new job .

Be professional. That's all you can do.

I'm sorry you went through this. She is twat and it is NOT your fault.
