TIFU by looking up my school bully

You say here that you didn't develop Stockholms and try to portray how little you care about this period of your past, but then you say that learning someone who you had many negative encounters with in your past is doing well for themselves has ruined a week of your life. Even assuming this person hasn't changed at all in 15 years - you're still letting their perceived happiness take priority over your own.

It'd be abnormal for you to not have any lingering issues after the trauma of being placed in a school where not only did you not know anybody, but you didn't even know the language and were bullied for it. I'd strongly consider talking to a professional - the barriers of entry to doing so these days are easy with the internet/skype.
