Listener question: I realised every time I’d been triggered today was because I was witnessing my perception of bullying behaviour.  

Then I realised all of the people at work I have issue with are the strong minded, direct talking, pushy, in your face characters and I perceive them as bullies.

I’ve realised bullying is a huge huge trigger. It’s been my last few posts. It is coming through time and again. 

If the behaviour is directed at me I feel inferior, intimidated, tearful, unhappy, not good enough etc etc etc 

Today the particular issue which triggered me most wasn’t directed at me. It was directed on several occasions against a younger colleague who I watched become intimidated, lost for words, etc etc.  And my reaction was fury.

So what now?
