I'm so sorry that happened to you, must have been so awful. Hope you managed to get through school ok after that and had support.

Thanks, I didn't have support (neither at home nor at school) and bullying was a regular occurrence for me. Took me a long time to become a social person as an adult...

I'm glad you managed to grow into being a social person. Fwiw you sound pretty badass to me getting through all that shit.

Thanks. I wouldn't consider myself fully equipped when it comes to social skills (can't read body language at all), but I at least do socialise and know how to function around other people that I could pass for a normal person. Took me years of intentional training to bring myself to the point of actually talking to people without subconsciously assuming things about them (either malice or apathy).
