Oh crap. Placing those restrictions just on yourself is an incredibly bad sign for any kind of ongoing employment there.

It's likely they have some processes working their way through their system(s) now to terminate you. :(

Might be a good idea to contact your own legal counsel, and/or an employment law specialist, (etc) and definitely start heavily looking for employment elsewhere (depending on your savings and personal runway).

Is the legal council for help with severance negotiations or do you think they might need it for other reasons? I agree with justinclift that it sounds like you're on the chopping block.
I'm thinking legal council is probably required so they have someone that knows employment law on their side, and can be ready to advise them of their rights (and things to do/avoid).

The idea of having them around for help with severance negotiations sounds potentially worthwhile too. That hadn't occurred to me. :)
