Don't feel ashamed. My older sister was bullied terribly when she was a teen -- to the point where she was hospitalized twice because she was suicidal. It was awful.
I definitely think it carries over to adulthood, based on my observations of my sister. I feel like, and this is just a layman's hypotheses, it could cause a mild or somewhat different form of PTSD with some people. It's traumatizing. There's no doubt about it.

Cymbalta, 60mg -- for the depression.
Latuda, 40mg -- for the paranoia (delusional type).
Adderall, 40mg XR & 5 mg reg -- for the ADD.
Xanax, .5 mg as needed -- for the anxiety.
Topamax, 50mg -- still figuring this one out.
MDD, but possibly have some form of Bipolar Disorder. Then again, I could be paranoid . . .
Well, at least I still have my sense of humor.
