I have been trying to do well at work and such.
Even went to the beach to get some healing.
But today at work a real "rear wipe" was bullying me on the phone.
I ended up hanging up on him and told my boss right then.
Boss is letting me try to do what I need to do but then the idiot called again after lunch and I refused to answer the phone. I was so angry. I had spent all my lunch time in tears about bullies!

I am so exhausted with the way life works and how it is always the bullies who win

You ARE doing such good work WePow.

Argh to bullies!

reminds me of my childhood home life...... ugh......

It's OK to feel upset many of us are a kind, compassionate bunch and it knocks the breath out of us when coming across such meanness.

try to think what an awful person he must be and how unhappy he also must be and hold tight to the knowledge that you are nothing like him.

small soft voice to WePow...
we know what you mean about bad bullies. they always hurt us sensitive spots. many, many times we go away, run for covers and cry. sometimes we get in closet, all dark and safe and cry and cry.

pdoc helps very much, meds help very much, learning more about me helps very much, being in PC helps very much.

Adult normal voice to WePow...
Here's something pdoc told me that helps me very much. A person invites me to dinner. The person puts food on my plate. I can eat the food put on my plate by them or I can not eat the food they put on my plate.

If their food is good, I likely will eat it. If the food is bad, I will not eat. This gave me great clarity and insight, I hope I've shared something helpful.

Hugs...

Notz - thank you :-) very good advice.
Jewels, I am also thankful my boss is trying so hard to protect me.

It is just such a bad feeling and then I just loose control because I just shut down inside. The AWESOME thing was that through the whole day I did not dissociate a single bit!!! I am so happy about that!! I still feel like crying but would rather spend time here on PC reading others notes and posting replies if I can help. This is like a home finally. BIG HUGS!

I am also very glad that you have a supportive boss. Did this bully trigger up anything from the past?
