• holding that a supervisor who threatened, intimidated and humiliated employee did not engage in outrageous conduct
• finding, even though employer knew of employee’s depression and intentionally harassed and belittled him until he broke down and was admitted to psychiatric clinic, no liability for intentional infliction of mental distress
• plaintiff failed to establish IIED where plaintiff alleged that he was “maliciously” transferred to another position, and his supervisors threatened, humiliated, and intimidated him while asking about his emotional condition
• given the unambiguous exclusion of disorders such as claustrophobia and depression from OCGA § 34-6A-2 (2)’s definition of “mental impairment,” a plaintiff could not maintain his discrimination claim under the Georgia Act arising from those conditions
