I was bullied a lot through school. I was very shy at the time, so that essentially attracted bullies to me. I try not to think of people that have bullied, picked on, or was just plain rude to me throughout my life, but I seem to ponder it a lot because I think it’s a problem with me, when in reality it’s rarely about you and it’s the culprits problem. People are egotistical and will do whatever is in their power to make themselves look good, they’re insecure too. Bullying is pretty much releasing your emotions and feelings onto others whether through verbal or physical means, an emotionally mature person likely wouldn’t bully others. There’s always a much bigger picture to why people are bullies and there’s always two sides to every story. Perspective may help ease your pain, but in the same sense I don’t think you can let people treat you like a rag doll and you need to learn to stand up for yourself, seek authorities if it continues, and always remember to keep toxic people out of your life. They are not healthy for your mentality.
