im constantly being bullied in school every day. Simply because of being me, i try to keep to myself & basically i'm a loner. People don't understand me so they push my buttons and try to get me to crack. Im down to my boiling point but i know better than that. the best way to handle bullying is to take it up between the person who is bullying you & a guidance counselor. The bully may not be happy with the decision but its best for you. don't avoid serious situations like this because it can leas to worse situations like : suicide,depression,& anxiety. Do whats right !

Right now, my school is doing some anti-bullying projects. Bullying doesn't have to be physical, emotional, or cyber. It can also be social. What I mean is, leaving someone out is also considered bullying. I've been bullied a lot this year and I want to feel like I fit in. Girls will look over at me and start to whisper and laugh, and when I try to hang out with them, they just completely ignore me. I don't want anyone else to feel this way.. It hurts really bad.

I have disability called "Spina Bifida". I know exactly how it feels to be pushed by a Bully. Went I was in elementry, lots of kids pointed and laughed at me. They called me all sorts of names. A year or two later, I decided that enough is enough. I went and told an adult, but the bullying continued. So I started to take matters in to my own hands. Whenever someone would bully me, I would laugh along with them and start making fun of myself. Before I knew it, I started not being afraid and not getting my feelings hurt. The bully would started to give up because they knew they couldn't put me down. My social life became so much better.

People at my school called me fat and ugly. Although this was terrible, worse than that was the fact that my best friend did the same thing.  From this experience I learned that beauty isn't about having a pretty face. It's about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart and a pretty soul.  Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.
