Sounds like a violation of your rights in many, many different ways, CarolAnn. I say it's time to take the offensive.

Maybe it's time to play a little "bad cop/good cop" reversal on them. I'm sure your husband must be upset at the way they treated you, so let him loose ... but be planful about it. Send him in on his own, demanding to speak to the manager, demanding to see the security tape, calling the pharmacist over to again confirm your history as a long-time customer (and not as someone on psych meds), and demanding to know who the regional manager for the store is (if it's a chain). Make as loud a fuss over their shoddy treatment of a loyal customer as he can. Put as much moral outrage as he can into it. Let him play to every male stereotype our culture will allow to put some oomph! into it all. Have him demand compensation for the way they treated you, starting with a formal, written apology from the manager and the security guard delivered in person to you with a verbal apology on top of it.

And if they don't go for that, have your husband lower his voice as threatening as he can, talk about a civil suit against the manager, the guard, the individual store and the chain seeking compensatory and punitive damages for their discriminatory behavior and for your pain and suffering due to their mental cruelty and verbal assault. Toss in violations of your civil rights by means of their trying to intimidate you into waving your rights by signing that "confession."

Who the Hell do they think they are, anyway?

You're the victim here, CarolAnn. Don't blame yourself. If you're going to run this over and over in your mind, then let it incite you to riot instead of beating yourself up.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr,
bob

[ps. if your husband just isn't the intimidating type, let me at those goons. I'll have'em for breakfast.]
