It is generally recommended to talk to a doctor or therapist if you are dealing with any kind of mental health issue, including work-related conflict. There are services available from reputable organizations such as the American Therapy Association which can help guide and support you through resolving workplace conflicts. Additionally, some employers may provide resources like employee assistance programs (EAPs) or organizational development consultants who are specially trained in such matters. Other helpful professional services could include crisis hotlines, mediation providers and legal advice. The point is to recognize when emotions are starting to interfere with your work and know when it’s time to seek help by speaking to a qualified professional..

Yes, there are safety warnings and professional services available to help. Conflict Resolution Resources suggests creating an 'agreeing up front' document outlining expectations on both sides, as well as utilizing a professional mediator when necessary. If the situation escalates, they also recommend speaking to an HR professional or seeking legal counsel as necessary.
