I’ll keep trying not to take it personally. I know that my coworkers aren’t happy because they dislike our controlling manager.
I never was one for the in-crowd so I just haven’t been included in any cliques here. I’m friendly with one co-worker but she is part of the clique.
I’m in health care so there has been a lot of emotional strain for everybody. We are also tired. I should try to remember that. But when I hear people laughing in the break room and I am not included or people walk past me without saying good morning I just feel invisible. Maybe there’s a good side to being invisible and maybe I need to focus on that.
Thank you for listening. I know you’re going through your own stress right now. I’m really hopeful for you that there are better days ahead.

I know you're not a cliquey type of person, and in my book, I think that's a good thing!!!! It means you're not just a part of the crowd, you're an independent thinker and you act and function independently. Those are all admirable and amazing traits to own!!!
So I can understand while you feel apart from the crowd or the clique, understand, know and embrace that you're not just another sheep!!!!!
Those cliques are usually made of up those who follow the crowd.
And yes, I think it's great to keep in mind the work environment you're in, especially within health care, the external stresses that everyone feels and to bear in mind that people deal with stress in different ways. People also deal with unhappiness in different ways.
And thanks so much... I am actually quite happy now that I am out of that work environment! It was so toxic for me. I am relieved.
