Hi there. Lets try to take this step by step:

Work environment:
If work environment is not healthy then life can be miserable. Before you decided to leave, did you take steps to speak to your boss and explaining about the unhealthy work environment? However, it looks like speaking to this boss from hell will not help. Hence taking the decision to leave is probably correct.

LMRA rules on Employee Rights:
Expatriate employees are provided certain rights. You should be aware of them. Link to this page is below: http://lmra.bh/portal/en/page/show/152#.U_mHJpVd6Uk

Point number 12 covers your situation. (In case of abuse or coercion to violate any rules you are to report to the nearest police station/ and or to your embassy in the country, and report to the Ministry of Labour.) You could seek assistance of the embassy of your country as a first step to help you with your present problems.

Resignation Letter:
It appears you submitted your resignation letter by hand. A more effective course of action for you is to send it by registered post. Also keep a copy of the letter for future reference. Seek advise of your embassy before you send out another resignation letter.

Best wishes.

Hi
Golbin don't worry sometimes the situation is beyond our control. As far I know about Bahrain visa transferring procedures you have to wait till one year over. You nearly six months as you say .or if you really want to go immediate. You can go to lmra show them your new offered letter for another employer then
You have to pay visa fee.
By the way my name is irfan. Good luck.

If you decide to resign, you must send the resignation letter by registered post and keep a receipt as Farhaz mentioned. It will make it much easier to get the new visa from your new employer in certain cases. It is not required in all situations but most of the time it is required or safer to have it than not.
