A True Story on how to deal with bullies. · 3:25pm Aug 11th, 2021
Warning! The content below is from my actual life. This is not made up. I actually experienced this. If you don't like real life blogs, now's your chance to back away and do whatever else you want.
When I was very young, like six I was bullied terribly by the other kids in school. I remember being in my room with my hands in my knees, head in my lap sobbing. All I could think was how much pain I was in, and how I never wanted anyone to feel the pain I was going through. That day, I dedicated my life to being kind. I know that kindness is a double edged sword, and believe me it's a hard path I walk, but this is the path that I believe. It doesn't matter what other people think of you. What matters is what you think of yourself.
Try to learn from experiences, grow from the very people around you. I still have no idea why the bullies targeted me, or why I was labeled an outcast, but I took it as an opportunity to grow. To show I could be better than them by simply being kind.
I also warn anyone like me who is wholesome and kind to be cautious, this path we walk is a double edged sword and it can sting.
I know that feeling all too well.
I was bullied for seven years straight (6th-12th grade). It was rough and even quite traumatic at times. Middle school I was bite by a girl. Luckily our teacher was a retired army man and was having none of it and she was gone the next way. Two boys stalked me for the heck of it in high school. One boy drew in my hair with a sharpie. That wasn’t the worst of it though. The one that has left me with PTSD was an incident senior year where a girl literally strangled me and my friend had to pull her off me. I still live with that trauma to this day because mom refuses to actually get me diagnosed. I still don’t know why I was bullied. Why I was everyone’s target. I’ll never understand. Thanks for sharing your story and thanks for listening to mine. Being the victim of one or multiple bullies in my case, it hecking sucks. I’ll never understand it. Never ever understand it.
Nail on the head, right there. The human animal seeks approval. The bully attempts to express disapproval in a way to diminish your sense of self-worth. It is natural to care for one another, and difficult to 'cut' that member from your herd, but it must be done to save yourself.
Look them straight in the eye and say, "Hey, I really don't care what you say, turkey. And nobody else does either. Buzz off, bozo."
I was the bullied autistic kid that other kids said would bring a gun or something to school, so trust me I know how it feels. Thanks for sharing your story, Nailah. Even if the golden rule is a dying trend, I still try.
