What really burns me up is that all the while they were picking on me, I was lectured about "letting them win" on an almost daily basis. WELL GUESS WHAT THE WON WHETHER I "LET THEM" OR NOT!!! IF I YELLED AT THEM, THEY WON!! IF I TOLD THE TEACHER ABOUT IT, THEY'D GET TOLD OFF, THEN KISS THE TEACHER'S ARSES TO GET OUT OF TROUBLE, THEN FIND A SNEAKY, UNDERHAND WAY TO PICK ON ME WHEN THE TEACHER WERE AROUND, SO THEY WON!!! WHEN i JUST IGNORED THEM, THEY GOT THE MESSAGE THAT I WAS TOO RETARDED TO KNOW THEY WERE PICKING ON ME, SO THEY WON!!! I COULD NEVER f***ing WIN NO MATTER WHAT I DID!!! AND THEY ALL SCREAMED BLOODY MURDER IF I EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT TREATING THEM THE SAME WAY THEY TREATED ME TO SEE HOW THEY LIKED IT!!!! THEY ALL STUCK UP FOR EACH OTHER BUT NO-ONE CARED ENOUGH TO STICK UP FOR ME!!! f**k THEM ALL!!!!

I didn't mind bullying at school so much because I knew they where immature brats and just waited til school was over. That and later on they became scared of me. Twisted Evil

It's when it's at HOME that gets me. My stepfather always picks on me for my lack of memory, being spacey, and my mania. he has killed pretty much all of my confidence. because of him I've tried committing suicide 3 times now. and when he's drunk and I don't listen, he grabs my hands really hard til I give in. (like bending my fingers backward.) and STILL my mom won't kick him out. but I guess that's my fault. she's happy with him, and It would be better If I was gone... my brother doesn't have issues with him...My stepfather always says things like "If you can't even remember to do ____ how can you hold a job?! How can you drive?! I'm surprised you even remember to wipe your ***!" and when I tell mom, and he finds out, he says I don't care about my mom being happy, and I'm trying to cause conflict. >< WTF...

I got picked on in my neighborhood but not a lot in the elementary school. It didn't get bad until junior high. When I changed schools, someone attempted to teach me to some social etiquette and to stand up for myself. Can't say my fellow classmates were pleased with the results after I moved back to town. I still got picked on, but not nearly as much to my face, they learnt better. There's a lot of anger left over, from my school years in particular.

I don't suggest whacking anyone with a wrench, at least not in school, but it did a lot for keeping people from bothering me during those years.

I stabbed someone in the hand with a fork during lunch once in high school, she stated she wanted my food and attempted to take it when I was in the middle of eating. Then she had the gall to seem shocked.

Eudevie - you shouldn't have to suffer the physical and mental abuse that your stepfather is putting you through. Have you spoken to someone at school about this? There are procedures in place that will allow you to get help.

I was invisible throughout school. I am pretty much invisible now, except when I come to the attention of somebody and then they somehow notice I'm not like them and they treat me like crap. Mostly I get the backstabbing, people talking behind my back, gangs of women at work ganging up on me, that kind of stuff. Constantly, wherever I go. Some people tell me it's because I'm attractive (not) and the women are jealous. I think it's because they sense otherness and don't know how to act. All I know is, I'm tired of it, and yes, it has affected me profoundly.

I have no hope of living a "normal" life or working at a job I like, ever.

I'm Graduated from school. Also, If I DO do something, I'll go to jail. During a psycho phase, I wrote that I wanted to kill him. I got hospitalized for it, but he has a copy. If that is shown to the police, I'm screwed.
Also, I can't tell my dad in fear of HIS safety. My dad would probably try to attack him...physically unstable MS dude(My dad) VS a ex-navy man who can left around 200 pounds...
Also, because I'm not a minor anymore, I don't think I'm able to do anything...

Ah. I misunderstood the age issue. I don't know where you live, but usually there are ways to escape from such a situation. It might mean breaking out of everything that is comfortable, but NO-ONE should suffer this kind of abuse. Check to see if there are shelters for battered women in your area. I know that the circumstances don't seem the same, but I also know that the workers in such places will go out of their way to try and find a solution that will work for you. What you are in is not healthy. Some written threat, given the circumstances, will not get you into trouble - and you can't let him BS you into thinking that he really has anything serious on you with this.

Yes it has affected me. I feel VERY lonely most of the time, yet I push everyone as far away from me as I can. I feel that if anyone gets to know the real me they will hate me just like everyone else. I suspect ALL of my current friends of secretly hating me, and I'm scared that one day they will ditch me just like everyone else. I fear that anything I say will be taken as something about sex (which was caused by my so-called "friends" in year Cool. Most of the time I hate myself for not being good enough to be friends with other people, and I feel that I'm not even human, cuz if I were people would like me. Sometimes I seriously wish I was never born.


The fact that you can understand and acknowledge your specific problems puts you one step ahead of most people in this kind of situation. I find that people build up these defenses then totally forget what is real and what is a mental construct.

I got bullied A LOT in primary school and to a lesser extent in high school. In primary school I was always picked on by pretty much everyone and in high school I was in an accelerated learning class so I was in amongst other nerdy people who did not bully me, though I was still picked on by others outside the class quite severely. I did spend most of primary school desperately trying to fit in (with no luck) and my mother said she could tell I was quite distressed. At high school due to being in a special class I was protected somewhat as I had other nerdy people around and I was also able to start university young (15), so I was no longer bothered by bullying as I had friends (albeit only a few). Also another thing that probably stopped me being too psychologically affected was that after about 15 or so, I stopped caring about other people's opinions of me as I do not think people I have no respect for (which is a large percentage of the population) have any sway on what I think of myself.

Yes,

I was bullied my whole school life and even now, now that i am 22 years old i still get called names.

I was beaten up or hit or tormented every day at school either by physical bullying or verbal. Things would include being punched tripped up crisps being crushed in my hair chewing gum you name it it happened.

I had a special letter i use to carry around with me given to me by the Head Teacher of my school permitting me to leave class earlier than everyone else so i could get to classes without getting beaten up on the way.

My school life was traumatic and even now i realise it has really affected me as a person and follows me arounf even now.

I now suffer from BiPolar depression and am very suicidal and i also take things people say to me very seriously. If someone says to me "if anythings happens to my camera. I will kill you" I sit there and think nah thats just joking then i panic coz i think they really meant it. I dont like to talk to new people incase they out to get me and i always ALWAYS think people are out to hurt me because to me that was the norm.

I don't know how bullying CAN NOT result in psychological harm....especially in children.

I have been bullied since nursery, and it has had an effect because I am now worse off socially, I've gone from being quite outgoing to being really quiet and withdrawn, and I'm very self consious and any sound of laughter makes me think it's directing at me.
