@Sig Sauer, Honestly, I hate when people use this argument. Comparing mental health issues with physical issues is like comparing apples with oranges. Most of the time persistant bullying leads to anxiety and depression which is severly painful. It is an illness as much as the flu and a problem all on its own.

@Squirtles Jockstrap, unfortunately the ones who don't reach out are the ones getting the same type of treatment at home. I saw kids go through this in high school and I felt bad for the ones that never did anything to deserve being bullied. I'd tell them to lay off, but the type of people that bully the quiet kids for no reason are just a-holes and as soon as someone who cared enough to tell them to stop wasn't around, they were just going to start acting like a-holes again.

@Squirtles Jockstrap, these dudes in high school used to put half eaten food on my plate and tell me to eat it (I wouldn't), one day I was kinda sick of it and so I gave them a deathglare and told them they'd better stop, and they were all "Are you gonna kill us?" I simply continued the glare and never saw them again after that Lol I was the weird quiet kid tho

@Squirtles Jockstrap, not really. Sometimes teachers don't want to get involved and parents can't. I was bullied in middle school for over a year. I was bullied right outside the P.E. teacher's office and he did nothing. My sister had anorexia and was half dead in the hospital, so I couldn't go to my parents. It made me question what I was doing to cause this. It became my fault, and telling someone would make it worse. It messes with the mind which makes it hard to tell someone. Sorry not sorry for the long post. People who've been bullied will understand

@Squirtles Jockstrap, I think that this picture is talking about when people talk down to you. I used to (and still kind of do) have social anxiety, and people would say "just be outgoing and talk more." Really? It's the same idea. If you haven't been bullied you can't say "quit complaining just do something" because you don't know how it feels

@Squirtles Jockstrap, @Not him again, you guys do realize the irony of your statements right? If you both recognized that something was going on, why didn't you step in? And someone is complaining because they ARE reaching out. They just don't know how else to do it. If you guys are seeing this DO SOMETHING FFS. I'm speaking as someone who was bullied from grade 2 til grade 9. Once I realized no one was going to help me on my own I got the courage and fought back myself. Not everyone can do that so help them out next time you see it. Seriously.

@Squirtles Jockstrap, I agree with you but I'm afraid your statement isn't 100% correct. You see, I went my entire primary school life (I apologise for my Englishness, I don't know what primary school is in America) being bullied. It was horrible. It was so hard to tell someone. So for 2 years I did take it. When I finally told someone, the whole school staff got involved but if anything that made it worse. No matter what I did the situation got worse and worse to the point that I use to bunk off school. The only reason it's stopped now is because I moved school. I think you're right and people should try and get help but it can be hard. Sorry for moaning

@its mountainman, ive been bullied, i was bullied physically and mentally for about 6 or 7 years. I hated goin to school until the day came where i got into a fight and people decided to leave me alone. I have always been a nice friendly person that doesn't like stressful situations so i guess that made me look kinda weak to other guys, but it is true that u must be bullied to actually understand what it feels like. I've also had to grow with bad medical problems so that just made it worse, but God helped me out of my dark times and i pray that others follow him out too.

As someone bullied my entire school life I feel i can say this...grow a fvcking back bone and fvcking get the fvck over it...news flash life isn't fair. It's also too short to give a sh!t what anyone else thinks/says about you yes I have sympathy for people who get bullied but if you're gonna complain about it to ME I'm going to tell you to shut the fvck up and get over it simple as that that's how I got through it that's how you kiddies will get through it too

@Allen Iverson , Rude and inconsiderate. When I was bullied for two and a half years, and still do, nobody helped. The councilor a didn't care the teachers let it continue. Some ate bullied to the point of death. And you have the nerve to tell us to grow a backbone. I considered for a split second to put a bully hex on you, but realized that goes against what I stand for. You go against what I stand for. Go to YouTube and search up the For This Day Project.
My dad was always physically abusive towards me so I lashed out emotionally by making people cry by targeting their insecurities, it took me two years to realise the damage I caused but it was not to late to apologise, and even after the way I treated others they still forgave me and some are even my friends today.
