I am an easy target for adult bullies, at least that's how it seems. I have never been a bully so I don't understand why they do it, I personally think it's because they are losers...either way, some people are very kind to me and I'm grateful and send them kindness, they say well, you never know what the bully has been through, well, once again, bullies are losers, I'm sick of being emotionally abused by what seems like a lot of bullies...since I've been a victim of bullies I would love to help other victims of bullies, nobody ever deserves to be bullied, bullies are losers

Bullying traumatized me into high school. I care because I now suffer from depression, anxiety, and body dysmorphia. I care because I will never make anyone feel the way those bullies made me feel. I care because every life is prescious.

When someone bullies someone else- they probably have a reason... but that's no excuse. Either way, you should treat everyone- including bullies well, because you don't want to turn out to be the bully in the situation.

I have been bullied because i was different. Because I was who I wanted to be. Nobody took the time to know me and so they ridiculed me for what they saw. Everyone says that sticks and stones make break my bones but words will never hurt me. That saying just isnt true. Bones can heal. Bullying leaves a permanant scar on a persons life. It can change them or keep them from doing what they are meant to do. I care simply because I dont want to sit by and watch was was done to me. I want to stop this horrible act. No one should feel that they have to comform, that they dont matter, or that they are an outcast simply because they are amazing in THERE OWN WAY. Bullying has got to be stopped!!!
