A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I need some advice/help, I am being bullied at work and I reported the bullies because other members of staff advised me to and now it has been turned around on me because I am shy an I don't speak much, I feel so low and I feel very isolated. Everyone could see what was happening but no one is willing to help me they are siding with the bullies, I don't want to leave. Any advice welcome.

do you know that bullying at a work place is a sackable offence? you should really keep following up the reports you made, maybe make more if it is still carrying on. maybe you also need to confront the bullies? i've been in a similar posistion before. when i was younger i worked at a rubbish clothes shop,cough,monsoon,cough.lol. anyway there was this manager girl there who for some reason did not like me, so she gave me the crap jobs and used to always be rude and nasty to me. it did upset me, but i decided that enough was enough and i gave her a piece of my mind and told her that i could report her and that she would probably recieve her P45 by the end of the week. so report them and confront them. but remember don't be rude to them, as they could turn it around and say you are bullying them.

confusedinkent agony auntI would recommend that you pay no atention to them, I know its hard to do. trust me I have been a target of bullying at work before. and funnily enough I was about your age at the time. I think its because your shy and maybe your the new girl. but from experience its best to ignore them all together and dont show any emotions around them. once they see that your not affected by it they will probably stop.

I know you probably just want to get on with your job and do the best you can then go home. so that is what you should concentrate on, after all your there to do your job not to make friends. and at the end of the day why do you care what people like that think of you any way, they aren't worth the time of day!.

So stick with your friends and the people you can trust and dont let them get to you, your a better person than them anyway, why else would they be bullying you?. your probably a lot more intelligent than them and they might feel threatened by it.

good luck in everything you do.
