I am so very, very sorry you are in the situation you described. How heartbreaking. It must be so distressing for you.

People can be cruel. If a person has low self-esteem they can seek to project their self-hatred onto someone else as a way to get relief. But it is cruel. I wonder if the people in your life suffer from some form of conscious, unconscious or semiconscious self-hatred and self-loathing.

So very, very sorry that you are the target of cruelty!
