Mostly work issues. I’ve been off work due being bullied. It’s made me feel horrible.

Bullying is terrible where ever it is.You don't deserved to be bullied at work.You have the right to work in a peaceful environment.Have you thought of reporting this bully? It is unacceptable.

Hello there Colangel,

I can relate to your message. And I’m sorry you feel that way.

Workplace bullying is especially difficult. I hope you are ok. I know you are struggling, but please hang in there. I know that is something that everyone says quite often, and it can get incredibly repetitive and obnoxious. But PLEASE hang in there.

Please look after yourself. Try and do something nice for yourself. Even if it is running a bubble bath or reading self help articles online.

I just want you to know that you being bullied is a complete reflection on those cruel people. Their bad behaviour towards you is a reflection on them and shows who they truly are.

If the thought of really looking at self help articles is really daunting and overwhelming at the moment then please try and ask yourself these questions ; ‘Am I too cold?’ Or ‘Do I need something to eat or drink?’

I know you are in a bad spot at the moment but please look after yourself.

love, PsychedelicFur.

Thanks guys for all your support. Really appreciate it. I have been working for a bank for 15 years and give my life to them. I was working from home during COVID because I suffer from bad asthma. My employer told me I had to go into work as asthma wasn’t high risk. I’ve under gone soo many hospital appointment to prove that I suffer asthma pretty badly and was terrified about catching the disease. All because I wasn’t making my target from home. I tried everything whilst working from home to make my target . But my boss make up all these stories saying I wasn’t trying to do my job . I have 110% . I’ve been so sick due to their treatment and have been crying since May last year. It’s all gotten to much as no one believed me!
