Question: About a year ago, I was bullied by a group of people due to their job insecurity feeling. I am an introvert female, who was much interested in work, spoke to few people at work. There were one lady co worker who started at these. She was one of the few people I used to interact and go for lunch together, etc. She, in front of group of coworkers, started pointing out my negatives, that is, I used to come late at work than other coworkers. Another couple of ladies, joined her in insulting me in front of group of people face to face as well as in whatsapp group. In these, one lady used to forcefully take help from me, also make me look like a subordinate in front of other people in whatsapp group, she also told me to ignore what everyone says and don't show any reaction.Another lady told me I was told what I am supposed to hear. There is another lady who smartly answers according to people and situation, for example when some one says they know something, she says she knows too.There was another lady who calls the other people fools if the other person is not up to her mark.And I have a client manager who doesn't care about what happens in the team, he only cares overall end results. I was abused by all the above people at a time, and I felt hopeless. I also had some kind of body shakings after that for few months. Thought I am required from the body shakings, I completely feel hopeless, lost, wandering, not able to focus on work,etc. I am now moved out of the project. My client manager had communicated to my manager saying I don't take initiatives even though I have lots of experience in that project.More than 5 years of experience in that project has gone waste now. I am not able to control my mind, I am feeling lazy and hopeless, not able to bring back my passion. I am understanding that everything is in the mind, and I have some mind blockers, there are many people who face a lot serious problems and mine is nothing, but I am not able to lift myself and get up. Now, I am in a state that, for each and every small thing I get angry or feel embarrassed. As everyone has, even myself had several bitter life experiences including difficult childhood like abusing parents, etc., In studies, I have been average student. I always believe in straight forward ways, morals, God, karma, long term, win win, life purpose, etc.,. Looks like knowing alone is not helping, I am not that mature to lift myself in a fake or negative environment."The same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you're made of, not the circumstances."-By understanding in what all am I an egg and that all am I a potato, want to know how to lift my confidence, self esteem, purpose, regain my hope, and be happy and do good for society as well. Kindly help. Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your answer. I have got few more questions.

Is the cognitive behavior therapy given based on past experiences of the patient i.e., Listen each and every past experience the patient has to say and understand their mind, and then disciplining the thoughts to make it more productive. (or) Is it like disciplining the thoughts to make it more productive, person's past does not matter too much here?

Is it customized per patient or same instructions and stages to be followed by the patient?

What can I expect and not to expect in every stage in the therapy.. i.e., something like what is covered on high level..

How are the results measured in CBT on his level? (Before, while undergoing, after)

How do I find the right CBT therapist match for myself? (Like education, certification, experience, what do I need to check during initial introduction with the therapist to determine if they are the right match, etc..

How much is the success rate in this therapy?

Can you also please provide your email and phone number.

Thanks
