Have you ever been excluded by peers in after work activities or just been excluded by people in times making you feel isolated? How did you deal with those emotions? (lemmy.ml)

But how did that make you feel? Did the feeling of feeling unwelcome lingered long after leaving that job or the environment you were in?
