I'm in it right now. I thought I've been doing a good job and suddenly I'm being attacked from all angles. I'm having someone help me, but it honestly even feels like they're attacking me. The hardest part is that it feels like i'm being forced to let go of my compassion and empathy for others in order to succeed.

Me too man -- It is isolating. My superiors are generally helpful but my reports (who were previously my peers that I got along with personally) expect a lot from me now and it's hard to figure out exactly what/how I should deliver.
