All our lives, we are taught to be kind to people. From our parents to our teachers, basic courtesy is a part of each lesson they teach us. However, as we grow up, we are faced with situations where others aren’t very nice to us.

Some people, consciously or subconsciously, often have attitudes that can be hurtful to others. These can range from derogatory gestures and constant criticism to ironic comments, name-calling, and disapproval.

Well, to make this easier for you, here are some ways you could apply to your life when someone puts you down.

1. Avoid getting angry at them
2. Keep your distance from the situation.
3. Take your time to respond..
4. Accept or reject an insult, but always in a friendly way.
5.Use your sense of humor.

These precautions could help us to maintain our mental health and well-being.
