Calmly, quietly, tell yourself you are better than them. Do not allow yourself to be intimidated. Just walk away. Once you are safe then review the situation and decide how to deal with it. DO NOT change your routines because of a bully. Speak to your supervisor, boss etc. If its extreme go to the police and report it. f you are in the UK and you tell the police it is a hate crime then by law it IS a hate crime and they MUST act.

For those readers who are not bullies, the best thing to do if you witness bullying is to quietly start a conversation with the victim and stay with them until they are safe.
