Greeks from outside of Greece how did you deal with discrimination?

I write this in English cuz I want to reach even those Greeks who aren't fluent in their native language, you can also answer in Greek I understand both. So I grew up in Germany and had a very bad experience as a child due of the amount of hate towards my country ESPECIALLY when the crisis started a lot of stereotypes about us being lazy, dumb and thieves has been going around and of course other immigrants who hate Greece due of historical reasons joined in the hate and I did not know how to handle it since I was just a child and since moving back to Greece many Greeks think I am brainwashed by the media when I tell them about my bad experience and how people actually view us. I can't be the only one who had this experience. Can anyone tell me how they dealt with all the gaslighting and discrimination?
