0When faced with verbal bullying in work and study, we can choose to resist or ignore it.
Resisting means directly pointing out that the other person's words make you uncomfortable and demanding more objective, fair and equal communication. This approach requires you to respect your own feelings and have the courage to face conflicts. You can regard it as an opportunity to exercise your conflict-handling ability.
Ignoring is applicable when you think the current work or study task is very important. Don't let the other person's words define you, and don't doubt yourself because of any attacks. This requires you to clearly understand your own strengths and have self-confidence.
Here are some tips for dealing with verbal bullying:
●
Confide: You can confide your grievances to a friend, but don't repeat them over and over again. Repeating them is equivalent to pulling out the knife that others stabbed into you and stabbing yourself again, which is a form of self-attack.
●
Empathy: Try to view those who habitually use verbal violence from a higher and more merciful perspective. They usually engage in repetitive work for a long time, especially in the field of training. They are trapped by this work pattern and often output negative emotions outwardly, unable to perceive the impact of their words on others.
We can also view ourselves from a broader perspective. The current experience is just a small part of our lives. We shouldn't be trapped in the present by those who are trapped in the present. Instead, we should keep in mind that our goal is as vast as the sea of stars.
