I was about in first grade when it all started. My doctors had told me I have hypothyroidism for people who don’t know this is something that can cause you to gain weight very quickly. When I started getting bigger the kids would mess with me about it but I’d shove it off but eventually one of the kids started hitting me. The one kid started a trend in the school my bullying got worse to the point that I hated life school and everything . I can actually remember a time when I was shoved down into a bunch of desks in the middle of class and my teacher walked up and shook her head at me and walked away. My cousins actually had joined in on this and one day when I was riding my bike down their road they hit me with fishing poles right down my back . I still to this day wish things would’ve been different in my life because growing up like that has made it hard to make friends. But one thing I was able to do for myself is try to forgive these people because if I wouldn’t have I felt it would’ve continued the pain.
Everybody is at fault

I am an 18 year old boy and currently in my final year of high school.First off i want to say that i am a delinquent or a badboy or whattever you call it..but…I dont do drugs nor do i bully people(As far as i know).I have faced bullying ever since i was a little kid..yep..pretty much from my first year of school(4 or 5 years old).And when i moved to a new school next year….the bullying got worst especially since im a new kid i got made fun of…and during my childhood till my 10th grade…i was a very quite kid….socially awkward.And as the years passed by the bullying grew worse…in ways that hurt me both physically and mentally.When i was in the 7th grade i was constantly called names and always being picked on especially because of my size.I didnt know why they always pivked on me.I had some friends who were bigger than me but they didnt do anythingto help me,i knew they were scared too. One day when i couldnt take it anymore..i broke out crying at home in front of my mom.She kept asking me and i told her the reason,the reason why i was afraid to go to school😢😢.She went to my school without my knowledge and met the teachers…and i know some of you will not be surprised when i say things only grew worse from there.One of the teachers called me out in front of everyone and started scolding me basically telling everyone in the class that i snitched.The bullies in my class confronted me and so the bullying escalated.From that point on…i didnt trust anyone and hated everyone…my teachers…my school..even my parents and i got severe depression which i hid from everyone else.And that was the year that i started going ‘bad’.I started becoming rebellious….i also became more antisocial and loved books more than i loved people..and when i say books…not my school syllabus…story books..comics.And as the years passed by i faced a lot of humiliations but things got a lottle better when i became a delinquent…maybe because some people were scared of me.From my 8th grade till my tenth grade.I picked fights with any and everyone who stared at me the wrong way….but deep inside i was still scared of my bullies even though i stood up to them and they backed off, bullying still happened once in a while like name calling.I hurt my family through my rebellious acts and i hung out with a bad crowd who liked to pick fights with people.Till this day i still do though i have begun to develop more social abilities and have become more popular.But my insecurities have not gone away though i have a lot of friends and i have a reputation as a tough guy.The bullying and pain that i have felt through all these years still haunts me. My point is Bullying and society have made me this way.If my teachers or just anyone had done something all those years ago i might not have been so awkward among crowds,i might not feel so much insecurity that i wanna die sometimes.WE SHOULD STAND UP TO OUR BULLIES.IF A BULLY HITS YOUR FACE,DONT SHOW THE OTHER CHEEK BECAUSE IT DOESNT WORK AND IF SOMEHOW,YOUR SICIAL STATUS GROWS,DO NOT BULLY OTHERS TO FIT IN,INSTEAD STAND UP FOR THEM AND IF YOU ARE AN ADULT DO SOMETHING TO STOP THIS CYCLE OF BULLYING BECAUSE ITS DESTROYING OUR LIVES.THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR BULLYING.Thats all i wanna say,thank you.
The Numbers 9 and 15
December 3, 2018
I was bullied for 9 years by 15 different people. It started out as just teasing and calling me names, but then it started getting worse as rumors started going around about me. The rumors started when a boy touched me and a girl saw. After that people started to call me ” the slutty fake.” I started to become very isolated from people and eventually I faded away into a deep dark hole. Guys started to come up to me and I remember one specific guy came up to me and gave me $10 to “strip” for him. This happened with 15 different guys. they not only did that, they beat me up and called me names. I eventually found a group of kids that didn’t care about the rumors and learned to love me for me. I now am in high school, but I have flashbacks and certain words will trigger my emotions. I have trust issues when it comes to guys getting near me. I am currently taking steps to help with this and I am starting by taking my body back. The numbers 9 and 15 have become apart of me and in some crazy way, it makes me a stronger woman and it pushes me to become the happy, beautiful, crazy, fun, independent girl I once was.
I don’t know what to do

Ever since yr 3 I’ve been bullied and now I’m in yr 6 it’s even worse. This group of girls and some boys r fat shaming me and two boys r calling me names. I’ve started cutting and I’ve tried to get help from friends but it isn’t working. Every night I’d write something down in my journal cause it was one of the tips given to not wanna commit suicide. But it hasn’t really worked and I’m crying myself to sleep and still cutting myself. Ive only just turned 12 like 2 weeks ago.

I wasn’t really getting bullied like at all but some people did do and say some stuff that hurt my feelings. one time was when I was in summer school I was called a boy because of what I was wearing but they new I was a girl. And my someone in my class always hurts or kicks me and thinks that me and her are friends we are not she always hits me and sometime I yell at her to stop and she doesn’t stop.

Okay so when i was in 4th grade there was this kid, lets just call him Mike, well anyway mike was never really fond of me in fact he would push me of the slide at recess call me “fat” “ugly” “worthless”, around the same time i was going through a loss in my family. Our dog had just passed away, when i first found out, i was hit with a very emotional break down. My dog was like my best friend, the only friend i had until i was 9. From then on i was known as the “Emo Kid” if someone were to even talk to me i would flip out on them. After that the bullying continued, i was picked on until 6th grade. It still kinda happens but not as much, and now i know how to defend myself. So i guess my life isn’t all bad, but i still have trust issues and i will still flip out on people if they get in my space.

I minded my own business in 8th grade, just doing as I was told. One day a kid I didn’t like (insults me all the time) took away my backpack and change of clothes. He then preceded to fling me across the hallway and slam me against the wall. I suffered a concussion and I was unconscious for several hours. He was dealt with (suspension & police involvement) and I still see him every day now, and I just ignore him.
