Legal Question in Workers Comp in California

job harrassment and violence

my boss had me in a meeting, discussing a situation I already resolved. During the meeting he pounded the table so hard it thought it would break. He yelloed so loud I thought he'd be heard down the streat. I called a psychiatrist the next day so distraught. Unable to teach group classes anymore, because he terrified me. Group classes is how I'm able to draw private classes, which support my income. My doc prescribed anti anxiety med and a note excusing me from group classes. I'm anxiety ridden, depressed, crying all the time and work in fear of facing this man. My income untimately will be affected. Do I have legal recourse?Working there is unmanageable.
