Bullying never really goes away. I am 20 years old and have been bullied since I was 6. I still get bullied to this day. This a pain I've had to deal with for 14 years of my life. Time has not healed my wounds. People need to realize that their actions can effect someone's life forever. We need to come together to put an end to bullying once and for all.

I care because I've been bullied from 1st grade through 8th and I've suffered from self-harm, depression and a eating disorder. I'm just recovering and I don't want anyone to suffer like I did. Bullying is wrong and inhumane. No one deserves it.

Its not fair for people to feel this way. Bullying really needs to be stopped, It really is not fun to hurt kids just because of the way they act or the way they look. I have been bullied by kids younger and older than me, I tried not to let them get under my skin, but it is really hard not to. you just have to try and ignore them and if they don't then tell an adult whats happening, they will understand I promise. Please know that you are not alone and you can fix it.

I was bullied. At the time, I was afraid to get help because the bully was using cyber-bullying against me and not physically hurting me, so I felt like maybe I was being over-sensitive. In reality, ANYONE who intentionally intimidates or harms you is bullying you. My advice: stand up for yourself. Get help/support from your friends and family. You shouldn't have to deal with bullying alone. Don't be afraid to stand up to the bully. If you don't stand up to him/her yourself, he/she will never stop. After I stood up to the bully, I felt liberated and finally able to be myself again. Don't just run away from the bully -push the bully out of your life.
