I have been bullied for how I look or just had some snide comments here and there. I used to just allow myself to be bullied but now I can stand up for myself and confront the person. I don't like being bullied and wont tolerate it at all.

I don't understand how the bullies can bully people. Some people actually commit suicide by being bullied.

Shannon I guess that I was bullied..in a way...XD

All that I have to say is that if you keep your head held high and don't let their comments bother you then you'll be fine :)

Also, I only just realized this last year but bullies are people who are hurting on the inside. It may be from abuse, neglect, loss etc and they just want to take it out on someone else. Whenever I see someone being bullied, yes, I get angry at the bully but I also feel sorry for them at the same time.

Bullies are just human beings like the rest of us, they're not perfect :)

When I was bullied, it hurt but I kept a smile on my face and went out of my way to be nice to the bully :)

It worked! :D I haven't been bullied for a while now and they have left me alone :D Whenever I see one of them, I shoot them a smile :D

It sort of reminds me of this verse from the Bible. I can't remember exactly where it is but it goes something like this:

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"

and another verse about repaying kindness for wrongdoing therefore heaping coals upon your enemy's head.

Anastacia (ana3) | 15 comments I was bullied all though elementry school and in the 4 grade i believe killing myself was the only way out. I remember sitting in the school yard thinking about ways i could die. If it hadent been for my best friend who i met in the 5th grade i wouldnt be here right now

Pirl (pirlismyname) I was bullied all through elementary too. Six years of hell. I even changed schools for fifth and sixth grade. People still find me vulnerable for some reason. But I'm stronger.
I almost did die, once. But I never truly considered ending my life. I wasn't grownup enough for that. I was too weak, and still am, anyway. I love myself and hate myself completely.
I write a lot about bullying. My songs, in my blogs. It's been such a big part of my life- and I don't dare forget or forgive.


message 10: by Pirl (new)

Pirl (pirlismyname) By the way, simply ignoring them doesn't help, at least it never did with me. You've got to tell someone. You've got to get out of that situation, one way or another, or they'll keep coming.

Anastacia (ana3) | 15 comments After being called stupid,fat,and ugly i just couldnt deal with the pain so i thought dieing was the best way


message 12: by Pirl (new)

Pirl (pirlismyname) That's it? I was called everything, from fat to "what month are you?" from "what's up with your hair" to "voldemort"(Because of my last name that sounds a bit like vold) and I was called every word that means idiot(and in Hebrew there are plenty) and even a lesbian once.
I'm just saying you're nor alone nor the worst case.

Ashlie (smashlie17) I was bullied in grade school but once I got into Junior High people figured out that I was just gonna ignore them so they stopped. But I was really outgoing until 3rd grade when the bullying started, and now I am incredibly shy =/ My little brother was also bullied in grade school, and one time I saw this kid picking on him so I went up and slammed him against a wall, and I was like, "If I ever see you messing with my brother again, I will beat you up" and he stopped messing with him XD He looked so scared too! And I never would have been able to actually beat him up lol


message 14: by Pirl (new)

Pirl (pirlismyname) LOL
Yeah it seems like it runs in my family too. My little brother was picked on too, and for a long time it was worse for him so I was ignored and then it was worse for me but I was playing it down so I was still mostly ignored.
