Unrealistic workload/harassment

Is there anyone around who can advise me on the next steps to take please.
As soon as my now supervisor took over from my previous she was never really friendly or has given me a chance ( work place is seriously childish & rampant with rumours) anyway I let it all slide got on with my work ( as well as others ) until she starts discussing my private/home life with colleagues; colleague made me aware of a conversation that had taken place & I reported it to HR they investigated but after a few brief emails I was told it was a he said, she said scenario and that was that. Fair enough no evidence either side but wanted her to know I don't appreciate my private life discussed. Fast forward a few month ( biding her time; overly nice most unusual) she starts adding extra workload. Belittling me in front of other staff about work sliding, not doing enough, shockingly behind etc however this is with adding other people's work to my work load some days doing 3-4 people's jobs. Constantly moving the goal post of what she's wanting me to do & when it's to be done by. After a few weeks of this I started not sleeping absolutely dreading work, panic attacks; vomiting, exhaustion, the last straw was not making me aware a previous training course which had originally been cancelled was back on but instead of her letting me know she got a colleague to inform me & I ended up missing it after arriving in the wrong building again another panic attack & I couldn't face going back to building & facing her so I informed a building manager of it all and asked that she got back to me that I wasn't in trouble for not attending course, in the meantime my supervisor was phoning & texting my partners phone wanting to know where I am! So now it's getting worse by the day. Supervisor is very passive aggressive making demands rather than asking me to complete or help out with my own & others workloads. The building manager never got back to me or let me know who my building manager was now ( recently changed & ive yet to be notified of who he/she is ) it's now at the point I've walked out of work this morning and I'm due back in at 5 on overtime. I don't know who to report to or where to go from here. I'm so stressed and anxious that I've vomited again. I have messaged my supervisor to tell her I've no intention of continually working under these ridiculous pressures & in such a toxic and hostile work environment. That I'm not happy with her appearing at my work station 4/5/6 times in the space of a few hours, constantly watching. It's all to much but who now do I raise this with? Sorry for the long post but I wanted to put as much info as possible.

I think you need to take a very deep breath and think about what you want to do. It sounds awful; can you / do you want to get another job?

If you want to stay my advice would be to not walk out of work or send any further messages to her. She could say that her being at your work space is to support you, however it makes you feel.

Are you in a union?

I think it's time to go back to HR. Do you have evidence so you can avoid the he said she said? record incidents down in writing so you can back it up.
You're going to make yourself ill with worry otherwise

Just walk...life is too short.A tribunal would be another plan to compensate you.

Get signed off with stress and start job hunting.

Walk away. This is not worth it.
