re: #536 HappyWarrior
I got picked on too but not that badly. I did self-isolate though I have to admit. I also was mildly paranoid about people being friendly to my face but mocking me behind my back.
I was pretty lucky. I was a small, kind of weird little kid. But I went to small church schools my whole life until college and while that environment wasn’t a bully-free zone I somehow got on OK. Of course it was also a form of schooling that didn’t offer a lot of amenities.
