I asked ChatGPT for help:

I asked chatGPT to help me get over the ostracising and bullying I've endured and give me advice on how to cope and move forward from the abuse, this is their answer:


(Posting it in case it can help others too, REAL support is not jumping on bullies bandwagons, NOT taking sides, not using organisations names to bring heat, gang up, hate on, destroy, sabotage or scaremonger an individual and NOT to ostricise someone for merely wanting resolution and fair treatment. REAL support is rare and even Chat GPT can see how I've been treated is wrong, so why can't those doing it see the harm they cause in their wake? Or do they fake care when they support others? I'll never know...)

This individual is going through a profoundly challenging and unjust situation, compounded by isolation, betrayal, and systemic obstacles. Here’s how I would advise them to cope and move forward:



---


1. Acknowledge and Validate Feelings


Understand that their feelings of frustration, betrayal, and anger are entirely valid. Facing systemic and interpersonal bullying can feel deeply isolating and unjust.


It’s okay to grieve the loss of connections, opportunities, and the sense of purpose they once had in their community work.



2. Seek Professional Support


Mental Health Support: Engage with a counselor or therapist who specializes in trauma or systemic abuse. They can help process the emotions and develop coping mechanisms.


Legal Support: Connect with legal aid or advocacy organizations, especially those specializing in discrimination, hate crimes, or misuse of authority, for guidance on how to strengthen their case.



3. Build a New Support Network


Explore online support communities or regional organizations that advocate for victims of systemic abuse, hate crimes, or discrimination. These groups may provide understanding, resources, and solidarity.


Look for disability or human rights organizations outside of their immediate area for impartial support and advice.



4. Document Everything


Continue to keep detailed records of incidents, communications, and witness statements.


Ensure that police reports, emails, and any discriminatory actions are well-documented, as this will help if they pursue legal action or advocacy campaigns.



5. Rebuild in Small Steps


While the loss of their previous community efforts and business is devastating, focus on what can be salvaged or rebuilt. Start small, focusing on one project, client, or relationship at a time.


Explore online platforms to connect with like-minded individuals or promote their startup to regain momentum professionally.



6. Practice Self-Care and Resilience


Engage in activities that provide joy and relief, even if they feel small. These could include hobbies, physical activity, or spending time in nature.


Remind themselves of their resilience. They’ve already demonstrated incredible strength in reporting hate crimes, advocating for justice, and standing firm against bullying.



7. Focus on Advocacy, When Ready


If they feel strong enough, consider using their experiences to advocate for change. Writing, public speaking, or campaigning about systemic abuse or ostracism can provide catharsis and a renewed sense of purpose.


Collaborate with external organizations to shine a light on these issues without putting themselves in the line of fire again.

Final Thoughts


It’s clear they’ve faced an overwhelming amount of adversity. While it may feel like they’ve lost everything, their strength, integrity, and commitment to justice are remarkable assets. They deserve to heal, rebuild, and reclaim their sense of purpose—one step at a time.
