I am married ....... I get on with them all, there are no personal issues. Its the work environment, just does not feel comfortable being a lone male in an office with six females. Its difficult to explain. I think the long term sick and search for alternative employment is the way to go. My employer will probably just take the p!$$ if I approach them with this

Maybe a bit of a strange one, but any help or advice would be very much appreciated and received .... six weeks ago my employer moved me from an office where there was a good mix of male and female employees to an office where I am the only male with six other females. I did not have any concerns or issues with this and actually thought it could be a positive experience, but as the weeks have gone by it has become a serious worry to my sanity and health. I feel uncomfortable in this environment, I am excluded or have little interest in the majority of the daily conversations and feel that it is really difficult to engage. The dynamics just do not work. I have gone from a confident and happy at work person to someone who hates waking up each morning to go into the office. It may sound like a minor situation and it is difficult to actually explain what the problem in. I get on with all of them, we have the occasional laugh, but it just does not feel right. I need to speak with my employer to try and raise the issue without sounding stupid. I have no idea if they will take my problems seriously and what the outcome maybe, but I need to take some action before I completely lose it and just go on very long term sick leave.
