What did I do?

Anonymous

I have been bullied for 11 years, first grade through eleventh. Elementary school bullying consisted of being called names, having my artwork drawn on or thrown out, beating me up on the playground or throwing me to the ground in soccer, being tripped in the halls, targeted during gym, and plenty more ways the bullies got to me. Middle school consisted of the same, except the insults, beatings, and teasing all just got worse. I had had enough in 8th grade and switched to cyber school for high school. Guess what? They followed me. The bullies of my past public schools found ways to harass me in town, online, or in person. I’ve had apples thrown at me from cars, getting hit by cars while biking with the bullies driving the cars, and even being framed for shoplifting.

My depression has grown worse and worse, and now everyday I constantly put myself down because I feel like I’m nothing. It’s natural now to just look at myself and remember all that was said about me or done to me. 

All this time I wonder just what did I do to bring this on me.
