Surviving from bullying



They took videos of me and played pranks and games they called me retarded and other cruel names, I was scared and I needed help because I was always told to kill myself never any sunshine always the rain, they left me to feel nothing but pain the bullies felt great they love to create drama while I was hurting inside going through the trauma they started rumors and called me a trouble maker, so I expressed myself and wrote it down on paper. I tried to hide, I just kept running as the social worker's and teachers stood there and did nothing I used to think there was something wrong with me I guess I'm what's called a pretty tragedy I've made mistakes I'm nowhere near perfect they made me feel depressed so I thought I wasn't worth it they wanted to see me broken they didn't want me to succeed so I started to self-harm and make myself bleed some of them made rumors that I was dropped on my head but I was hurting inside from the harsh things that they said some thought I was starting problems with them, but all I was trying to do was be a good friend I had a friend he was gay but when I tried to stick up for him it went the wrong way I had depression and I had lots of anger, I took it out on the ones who made me feel safer teachers blamed me like I was in the wrong, I felt more weak than I ever did strong, we weren't best friends we couldn't agree to disagree, I didn't like them as much as they didn't like me, some days I cried and cried and other days I tried committing suicide take some time take some space when you put an end to bullying it will make you feel safe, speak up, stop the bullies, and change other's lives, being strong and confident will help you survive
