I'm a bit concerned that I'm still affected by bullying that happened over half a lifetime ago
Bullying can be hard on a person. How does this bullying affect you?
That woman who hurt me made me feel like all humans are liars.
I'm sorry you had such a traumatic past, but you can't let that dictate your life right now. It's been so long and it's time to move on, you can't enjoy your life and future if you can't stop thinking about that.
You don't understand. I was in a completely different feeling in the country at the time and I don't think anyone will understand the pain I felt.
I get wanting someone to understand what you went through, but you can't let that stop you from moving on. It's important for you to be able to enjoy a life free from that pain. If you need help processing it there are a lot of therapists who specialize in bullying.
