how does one stop acting like a victim? first you must define what it means to be a victim.

a victim is one who is powerless, unable to protect yourself from abuse from others (or self abuse). many times children are victims. a victim remains powerless because their own disbelief that they have the power to change their world for the better.

change your views on yourself. you'll not be a victim anymore whenever you consistantly walk among others with an attitude that projects strength, inner self-worth, and defined boundaries. learn that your protective defense mechanisms (not making eye contact, hiding from the world, and other meek ways) do not work for you anymore. be flexible. you deserve to be happy.
