Artist Dimitris Samolis shared personal reflections regarding bullying and verbal abuse during an appearance on the ERTnews program ‘Enas kai enas’. He detailed the trauma experienced during his childhood, noting that the pain stemmed not only from the aggressive actions of bullies but also from the silence and inaction of bystanders.
Samolis also addressed a recent professional incident involving verbal aggression. He explained that this experience reinforced his commitment to setting personal boundaries and removing himself from environments that no longer align with his values. He noted that while such incidents in adulthood can feel humiliating, he managed the recent situation with composure by communicating his stance and immediately leaving the work environment.
