Real Teens Speak Out

Not good enough

Ever since I was young, I was the weird one. I mean, yeah, I had friends, I even had a boyfriend at some point when I was 4. I had a best friend, let’s call her “C”. C was always rude and horrible, she would bite and attack people. I didn’t care, she was sort of nice to me. I was dumb back then. We all were. And ever since I was tiny, I was always blamed for things, I was put on the dumb table, just everything. But I had my fair share of friends, I got invited to birthday parties, it was the most popular I had ever been with real friends. But you see, these days I look at the people I grew up with and I wonder how we all got to this. Because soon everyone hated each other. I mean, yeah, I guess that’s just what happens. So when one of my friends came into my class, I was overjoyed. But then everything changed. You see, in order for them to be moved to my class, they had to chose someone to move to the bottom class. And guess who they chose. Me. I’ve never been good enough, I guess. No matter what I do, I’ll still be worthless. When I was 6 years old, the bullying started. There were 2 boys who sat on my table, some of the least well behaved boys in the year, they were also bullies. And when the popular kids would hand out party invitations to everyone but me, I would just feel empty. Even the unpopular kids had friend groups, I was just alone, a worthless piece of trash. And then I met my best friend. Previously I had hated her guts for no reason, I guess she was just annoying. But now she’s not, she’s still my best friend to this day. She had a friend group, and I was in a friend group, I finally had friends! But at the end of year 4, I started to change. I started going through my emo phase. Of course, me and my best friend were still inseparable, I was just a terrible human being, I still am. I would constantly be edgy and still wonder why I was being bullied, complaining about my self diagnosed depression. Now that I go to a different highschool as my best friend, things have gotten a lot worse. The bullying is worse than it’s ever been, instead of my friends talking about me behind my back this time, it’s me talking about them behind their backs. But now I feel like everyone hates me, like I should just kill myself and everyone would be happy. I’m the second top class of the whole year, but I’m probably the worst in my class. I’m dumb as but pretend I’m super smart, as if. I’m already underweight,  but my friends are taller than me which makes me feel super fat. I’ve had my trust betrayed so many times that when 2 boys “confessed their feelings” to me in year 5,  I just cried myself to sleep, knowing it was a trick and they were messing with me, because I’m just the disgusting, selfish freak that nobody cares about and likes to brag a lot, there’s a reason everyone hates me, there’s a reason no one will notice if I’m gone, and that’s because I’m worthless. End of.

Believe

God loves you. Believe that. Don’t believe what the bullies say. Believe that there is people worse off than you. Believe that people are going through the same thing. Now just think about that for a few. Now look back at your senerio.(i cant spell) Do you feel different? Do you feel sightly better? Now i feel like i need to say this but im 13. I am not an adult with a degree. So what i say may not make the most sense but i hope this changed your point of view a little bit.

My Story

All my life I’ve been bullied. My parents moved me out of a public school and into a private school in hopes that it would lessen. Long story short, it didn’t. The bullying changed. Instead of being physical it’s verbal. I have had depression since I was 8 years old. I am 14 now and things still haven’t changed. The bullying lead me to self harm. Some how or another this year it got out that I have depression and these 2 girls came up and started hassling me because it wasn’t their fault I had a mental illness, I had left their group because they kept bullying me about 1-2 months prior, and told me that I should just go kill myself already. Bullying has really affected me and changed who I am today. I guess that’s my story ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Bullied by a classmate bc i have a crush on a girl in my classroom

One of my classmate in a break started punching me. Then he started to say a different lies about me to embarrass me in the front of the class. then he started making jokes about me that I have a crush and you realise that it was embarrassing for me as well as the girl in my class that I had a crush on. half of the classroom started laughing at me and I got under a desk to feel a little bit protected.

This is my life

My bullying started when I was only five since then it has gotten worse and worse. I was physically bullied and socially bullied. I started to lose sight of why I was still living. But then God sent me an Angel from heaven telling me I was ok and telling me that God loves me and that’s all that matters. She told me how she was broken to at once and how she overcame it. I started to have hope again I started to feel free I realized why God wanted me alive and want my purpose in this world was. It’s to spread the word about my story helping people understand that there are people that can help and they’re not alone. That what makes you different is what truly matters and when those bullies realize that they’ll understand that what they did was wrong. But that doesn’t mean I want you do criticize them for it I want you to help them forgive them I understand it’s hard but they need to see the love that you were able to get. And that’s my story. #I AM A BULLIED VICTIM! 70.6% of young people say they have seen bullying in their schools but have not intervened or told anyone about it. 70.4% of school staff have seen bullying but have not intervened. 62% witnessed bullying two or more times in the last month and 41% witness bullying once a week or more but again done nothing about it. Lots of people total have witnessed bullying, but only about 20 to 30% of students who are bullied notify adults about the bullying. According to one large study, middle schools students had experienced these various types of bullying: name-calling, teasing, spreading rumors or lies, pushing or shoving, hitting, slapping, or kicking, leaving out, threatening, stealing belongings, sexual comments or gestures, and e-mail or blogging. That’s a lot if you ask me.
And according to one large study, the following percentages of middle schools students had experienced bullying in these various places at school: classroom (29.3%); hallway or lockers (29.0%); cafeteria (23.4%); gym or PE class (19.5%); bathroom (12.2%); playground or recess (6.2%). If you are a bullying please stop it’s wrong you may even be bullying someone and you never knew. I want you to just apologize to that person they may hesitate at first to accept your apology but it will happen if you can show them you truly mean it. Help me make a difference in this world and I don’t want you just to do this for me but for every person out there who knows what it feels like to be alone

Mind games guys play bully

I have been bullied by guys I liked and they called me four eyes geek metal mouth. I had braces in high school. I was slammed into a pole by someone. I was bullied online too by tons of people who picked on me and then messaged me to leave him alone.  These people are not good people to say ugly things about u.

My friends who turned on me

Before I start, i want to point some things out. Personally i dont think i have done anything wrong but again that is my opinion.

So when i was in grade 5, I was one of the most popular kids in school. But unlike other kids who are good at sports or their family is known for something or maybe they are down right famous, i was known for being nice. I would always give spare change to basically everyone in my school and buy them things if they wanted. I would give them food when they really wanted or needed it, i never made fun of people and even invited most people (even the ones I didn’t really like) to my birthday parties. Honestly, everyone followed me around. But after grade six hit, most of my best friends turned on me. Not that they suddenly started beating me up or anything. This was all mental abuse. They started calling me names. Ugly, Disgusting, they even started using homophobic slurs. They also would push me randomly, be mean while im minding my own business and calling me a monster just because I had asked them if they want to maybe do something after school. It wasnt too long until basically every single one of my friends turned on me and started doing the same thing they were doing. In the midst of this, i still had 5 or 6 friends who were truely my best friends. All of grade six was like this. Me going to school, getting bullied incredibly badly, me coming home thinking it was my fault and not doing anything to fix it. And i admit, that was completely my fault. Also I still gave them food and did what I had done in 5th grade. Basically I was being nice and they were being mean. Again, my fault for being nice when they were being mean. Anyways, when grade 7 had started, I thought it had been better because all the other jerks were in another class. But it just got worse. Then they started to talk behind my back. Saying everything they had said to my face but a lot worse. This kept on going for another 2 or 3 months until I was playing an online video game with some of my ACTUAL friends  who were nice to me up to that point. I was playing with me Best friend. Another one of my best friends. An annoying friend who was still nice at the time and my now best friend who was at his house. They decided to remove me from the party and play split screen with another controller I was begging them not to and everyone but my now best friend were responding with slurs and then they kicked me out. I instantly left the discord call and then saw them spam in the chat more slurs. I shut off my computer and started crying incredibly hard. Like i honestly felt like my eyes were flowing in a river (weird but whatever). When I returned they still made fun of me and yea thats basically how it went. Im now in 8th grade and im 14 years old but the bullying hasnt stopped and I still think it might be my fault.

It takes pressure to make diamonds.

It’s a long one, but here goes:
in my Montessori school, I was constantly being bullied since elementary school. You see, my teeth used to to (and still does) buck out, and I hated (still do) myself for it. I always thought it was all my fault that I was as ugly as I was. People called (still do) me terrible names like “buck toothed beaver” and “ugly”. Some people would take the extra mile of hurting me to make me upset, by throwing me into aquaponic systems (look it up) and throwing things at me on purpose (like footballs and books and occasional flying water bottle). They chair me (when the pull the chair from beneath you) and put me in headlocks. I remembered one time when I had to lock myself in the girls bathroom to keep myself from being hurt by bullies. I started getting sick of having people push me around and crying every day that I started to tell the principal and most teachers, but they mostly sat and watched (except the principal; he just used the same punishments), which made me ANGRY. I started to think that it was my fault that the grown ups wouldn’t do anything about it, and I fell into a depression for months. I would randomly burst out crying and I would isolate myself from people because I didn’t trust a single person in class. I was miserable, and I wish I would have toughened up sooner. I frequently talked to my Mom and Dad about my bullying issues and they listen respectfully. They always tell me that “pressure makes diamonds”. I later realized that they recycled that from that Chris Rock comedy skit, but it was still true. Pressure DOES make diamonds, and people being nice to me wasn’t the answer. People like me NEED a chance to get a kick of the real world to know how to deal with mean people at your job. Sure, they won’t trip you or throw chairs at your head, but people are mean, like it or not. To all you other 6, 7, and especially 8th graders, hear me out:

It’s time to be a diamond. Shine bright.
P.S: I have braces now, so my teeth are being fixed!
