I can sadly really relate to your position.
I started at an office when I was 21 and all the women on my team (who were all late 20’s and 30’s bullied me relentlessly) including my line manager. I put it down to jealousy and that they were just nasty old bitter witches.
The whole ordeal gave me awful anxiety and I suffered panic attacks every morning. I was sat crying at my desk every day. The company ended my contract as they were ‘concerned for my mental health’. Long story short their concern was bullshit.
I wish I had told the HR team and escalated it.
I agree with other posters in to definitely telling someone about it. Keep a diary. Ignore any nasty comments and don’t react to what they say/do to you in the meantime. Whatever you have to speak about, keep it professional and work related.
You shouldn’t have to, but is it possible to request a transfer to a different team/role?
Even if they are called out/reprimanded/warned for their behaviour I wouldn’t want to be on the same team as people like them.
I really hope you’re okay, this is sadly very common, and such an awful position to be in.
Do keep us updated. And remember: bullies are insecure and unhappy with their own lives. That’s why they attempt to bring others down. You’re a million times better than they would ever be
