Gossip for Stress Relief
Question
I work in a very challenging and demanding workplace, and we have a manager with whom it is very difficult to work for various reasons. The only thing that helps us stay at work and not break down is to share with each other the difficulties we experience with the manager. My question is, isn't this considered lashon hara (gossip)?
Answer
Shalom and blessings,
It is permissible to speak the minimum necessary.
