I was bullied this way in school. I didn't know it at the time, but I was Bipolar 1, tending towards depression, and had PTSD from being severely abused by my mother.
It's like I had it written on my forehead - victimize me, I won't fight back.
The heartache I've endured with these memories is too heavy to bear. I just wanted to be loved by my mother and to go to school unmolested.
I've had no peace in my life.
