I’m so sorry you’re in such a difficult situation — being gossiped about is one of the worst feelings. Have you tried talking with the person that is spreading the gossip and explained how hurtful it is? If so, and they aren’t stopping, it’s important to know that sometimes there’s nothing we can do to stop the gossip from happening, but we can try to remove ourselves from the situation as much as possible. Here is a great resource from Psychology Today called “8 Things to Do If You’re the Target of Hurtful Gossip.” I hope it’s helpful for you!
