If you have no or a few friends, how do you deal with people who mock or laugh at you for this?

My co-worker knows I have no friends so she makes it her duty to always ask me what I do on my day off to make me feel like a loser when all I can answer is 'nothing'. One of my other co-workers always does this too and he laughs whenever he asks me this inane question.

I'm probably not the best one to answer this, but I'm going to try. Honestly, I'd consider the source of the stupidity and just do your best to ignore these coworkers. They really are not worth getting yourself twisted up in knots over. I've been bullied before as well; let's just say that at my 10-year high school reunion, karma was a real humdinger to some of my classmates.

I haven't encountered criticism of my non existent social life since public school, so i don't have an answer for this one.

My job is fairly solitary and my interaction with coworkers brief. There is no occasion for criticism there. My family knows but rarely says anything about it. Especially not since the Dx.
