To the Editor:

Re "Fear in the Workplace": What saddens me the most about bullying behavior is that employees often develop elaborate coping mechanisms to endure it. They hide, laugh, or retreat to "safe groups."

As a psychologist who specializes in bullying, I can’t help but worry that the stress these victims feel eventually manifests itself at home, on the highway or on the sports field.

I have seen too many adults suffer from pain, stress and depression because of workplace bullies. Sometimes, these victims become bullies themselves, making their spouses and children miserable, and creating the next generation of bullies.
