Thank you for sharing your story and sorry to hear about your ordeal. I am glad you got the assistance of a good therapist. I was also bullied all my childhood and teenage years. It was mainly by my sister, which gave me such a low confidence for keep getting beaten up by her that I became a target at school. Lots of name callings and teasing by classmates for getting beaten up by my sister as well as physical bullying by classmates. There was no wake up call for anyone at the school administration unfortunately so it continued until the end of Grade 12. I have PTSD and still struggle with many issues and therapy has been valuable.
