I don't mean to minimize your feelings....because it is human to be affected by verbal abuse. It wears down a person's self esteem.....
If you are going to live with it for the next six to eight weeks....is there any way you can think of to use better detachment skills or limit you time in the shared space? (same room).....
do you have any earphones...?
Most times I've gotten better at not being sucked in to the insanity and the BS, but at other times it sneaks up on me and next thing I know I'm in the thick of it. Luckily I realized that I needed to get out, so I grabbed the dog.
Even if I'm being attacked like that, I'm too nice to walk away from someone when they are talking. DS does that and it drives me nuts. Now, I just have to remind myself that me telling DS something and him walking away, is a helluva lot different than having vomit spewed at you and walking away.
Uuugghh
