[quote=Anonymous]I recently saw some movie star talking about how she used to get so upset about awful stuff people said on line about her.  Then she sort of came to a realization that these people had negativity that they are putting out for reasons that are unrelated to her (and are mostly very sad) but that isn’t her burden to carry.  So she decided she was just not gojng to pick that up.  She said “that’s not for me so I’m not accepting it.”  Like a lousy gift someone tries to give you — you just leave it there and don’t take it.  It’s not yours.

I don’t know if thinking about it this way will help at all.i can’t even remember which star it was but it was somebody that seems to attract a lot of really nasty online trolls.

Honestly I think the fact that he targeted you specifically, if anything, suggests you are not a non-entity at work.  Think about it this way—no one gets more of that online sh-t than Taylor Swift.  Or Oprah.  Or Michelle Obama.  Anne Hathaway at the top of career.  For some reason these mentally ill men like to attack women that are beautiful and powerful and popular and say that they are ugly and bad at their jobs and no one really likes them.  It is very predictable and very sad.

I’m really sorry that you had to go through this.[/quote]
