Me too, although I think mine are vices.
A good vise helps me cope.
she’s the founder of the company so it’s really her play thing. Last month she threw away a piece of art worth at least $10,000 and tried to blame everyone else because she doesn’t know how to unpack boxes and someone else should have checked the box before she threw it away with the art inside. I wish I was kidding.
shes 71 years old and maybe senile. Some maybe into that, idk.

Sorry, that blows. I've never had anything this bad, but I would suggest when you do leave keep it as amicable as possible. No matter how much you despise her and how good it would feel to tell her off upon leaving, I'm a firm believer in not burning professional bridges.
I work for an art dealer and my boss is insane. She treats everyone like her personal assistant and is constantly playing mind games. You never know when she will blow up about the slightest issue. Recently she tried to pressure me into attending a New Year’s Day party at her house by suggested that my career “might” depend on it and then guilt tripped me hard for spending NYE with my family.
It has gotten to the point where I feel stupid all the time and am making silly mistakes because my stress level is so high. I’m actively looking for another job but until then I need to survive as best I can. For those of you who are/have been where I am, how do you cope?
Don't trust "corporate"!! Too many one-sided arguments that always seem to go in the managers/bosses favor.Truth right here. I worked for one large corporation that had HR people who were supposed to represent employee interests in conflict resolution or PIPs. Needless to say, their real job was to make sure the company didn't get sued.
Has CF ever given anyone bad advice?This is kind of helpful. From Harvard.

You could say one of us is dumb but, collectively, we're even dumber.
