When I was 6 years old, I was bullied everyday of my life. I grew up hating myself so I got addicted to cutting myself by the age of 10. I stopped for a while, but I relapsed just this year and started cutting again. Bullying can actually ruin peoples' lives. It ruined mine.

i want to help others like me.I want them to know that they are not alone. right know i am studying to be a social worker which i know can help make a change about bullying. i hope there is also an agency which is open for bully victims ,which they can develop themselves through the help of persons that was also like them.I was dreaming to help people like me by building an agency in each schools that can care and protect each bully victim from the ridicule of others.

I was bullied from elementary school until high school. Rumors were spread about me, I was physically attacked, spit on, called names. Anything that other students could do to make my life miserable they did. My life was pure *!$*. I still do not know to this day why I was the target. Even today at 34 I am dealing with anxiety and flashbacks from being bullied. Bullying has a lifetime effect. It breaks my heart every time I see on the news a student kills themselves because they see no other way out of being bullied. I appreciate everything that you are doing to shed light on this serious issue.

Since middle school I've lost all my friends and now i have none. It almost stopped in grade 6 when i met a girl named Kayla, but the mean popular girl at my school stole her away and all the other almost friends i had. I had to stay in the washroom for every single recess, waiting for the bell to ring because i didn't want to be a "loner" at recess. I was way too shy to talk to anyone at my school and the mean girl tormented me and gossiped about me. This year I still have no friends. Im confused and don't have any idea how to make friends. It seems like everyone in my school already has a friend/friends at my school. And I'm not exactly the mot attractive girl at my school either.
