Yes, move fwd. I too was in a repetitively mentally abusive situation in Pharma for almost 2 yrs. When i left, I persued EEOC charges. My case was confirmed to be valid. Then, I dropped it. I NEEDED to move fwd and I could not as long as I held on to the charges. I had to keep the painful memories alive, reliving them constantly, and experienced anxiety disorders and nervous fits. I was mentally exhausted from the abuse and paralyzed by the process. So I let it go. Then the healing began and my new careers opened up. I was further vindicated when I bumped into my former manager who apologized and applauded my character.
I'm glad I let it it go too.keep moving fwd.congrats.
