Being bullied as an adult

[miles-away]

Kind of embarassing, but has anyone else been bullied as an adult? I've never really been bullied as a child. But as an adult I was bullied by an older coworker who dogged on me for everything. I really didn't even do anything that bad other than be autistic and kind of shy.

I think he has no right to bully you since you are legally an adult. You should be treated with respect, no matter if the co-worker is older or not. I think you should let your manager know about this issue.

also, I wonder if the current job market could be described as bullying too~ :(

Yes, it's humiliating. I regret not being violent with the guy

I mean, this was when I was very briefly in the military, so that sort of frat-bro attitude is practiced by even chiefs and officers. It's almost encouraged.

Fortunately never been bullied, but I think that adults bully just as much as children or teenagers do. I'm sorry that happened to you

High schoolers can be especially mean for some reason

It happened only during my adolescence—between the ages of 13 and 16 at school, at the hands of classmates; it involved things like isolation and verbal or physical violence.

Outside of the school environment, I was harassed both online and in person by people older than me, aged 25 to 30 (though I've forgotten their exact ages due to the trauma).

Fortunately, it hasn't happened in adulthood, though I am a solitary and depressed person because of what I went through during my teenage years.

Not really much in my youth thankfully except in elementary school. After that things got better. I was never bullied in high school which is really interesting. Never in college either. Now speaking about adulthood up until a few years ago I wasn't bullied at all but now it's like constant. This alien thing (I kid you fucking not) tries to bully me in my head/telepathically/through other people. It's completely fucked up but I'm 37 and like I can handle it/fight it back. It's really ugly though and I'll honestly be grateful when I'm dead.
