not sure if anyone will read this, but I'm just gonna get the pain off my chest.

I’m 18 years old, and I’ve been through some rough stuff lately. For the last month, I forced myself to work a 9 to 5 job because my introverted personality reached a point where making a simple conversation with people felt almost like a nightmare. I was doing fine and making progress in talking with others. However, my supervisor, who is not much older than me and whose morals are the exact opposite of mine, was someone I didn’t like from the first day I met him. He kept messing around with me. One day, while I was organizing the clothing racks, I looked up and saw him gossiping loudly with a few of my coworkers about me. He was saying that I’m a weird person. He got closer to me, looked me in the eyes, and said, “Are you even human?” In that moment, I lost all my confidence. I couldn’t even bring myself to look at his face. He continued, “Respond when someone is talking to you.” I was speechless; I tried to speak up for myself, but I just couldn’t. He mocked me for a minute—a minute I will never forget. As he was about to leave, some of my coworkers were already looking at us. He turned to them and said, “Would y’all believe I’m scared of this kid? Look at his eyes.” He finally left, saying, “If I were you, I would’ve killed myself.” I will never forgive him for saying that to me; even if I did, I wouldn’t forget..
