Professor made fun of my answer. Feeling very humiliated. How to cope?
My professor asked a question so I answered. He didn't like a specific wording I used, repeated it back to me and said "Really!?". Everyone laughed. Later on, he was giving bad examples of an answer, he used my answer as an example and everyone laughed again. After class I went to him, asked for feedback on my participation performance, he brought up my example again twice. People also started making fun of me as well. It's been a few weeks but people still bring it up to me. I feel really humiliated.
I know the whole situation is really trivial but this is impacting me more than I expected. I have already been feeling really down lately and dealing with a lot of social anxiety and depression, which is why I don't participate in discussions because of my fear of situations like this. I also realised that life will never get better.
