How often do you get bullied?

Post Reply New Topic

Now that I am in college, I don't get bullied. But when I was in elementary school I was bullied relentlessly and hated on some level by almost all of my classmates. One time, I hit the kid that bullied me most and I got detention, but my parents talked to the principal and made it go away because the kid hit me first and it was my dad that told me to hit him back.

In 5th grade a bully walked up and punched me in the stomach, I went and told a teacher and he was suspended. He never touched me again.

Well, they never suspended this kid which is weird since it was a Catholic school and usually there is more discipline there than at public schools. He also never touched me again after I hit him. I remember fighting off a bunch of kids that were trying to attack me in the schoolyard once. I fended them all off successfully, probably because I was taking Karate. I made it halfway to a black belt.

Okay: some of this, I just recently unburried. Hidden memories. Every day in gradeschool, I was pretty much tortured. Like hit and kick, and then there was this one running joke about me that was completely false but I don't wanna bring up. They would mock me for freaking refuting insults??? (WTF, like your supposed to smile and accept it; did they WANT me to rage?) The nicest form of it, I think was legitamite inquiry, but I am still mad that I couldn't understand the message when I heard it. Looking back, I remember 2 or 3 kids in the 4 or 5 grade that said something along the lines of, "dude! are you autistic or something?" I would always ask why they had a weird accent and they would walk away.... I thought they were asking if I was artistic, which is a weird thing to INQUIRE.

High school, I was ignored. Left the cool kids for a while and hung out with the punk table. They at least seemed more real, but I eventually left them for a girl that I was not fit for at the time.

Now that I think about it, people still give me mean looks. Even the stoners at school. Not "you suck", but "watch that dude walk and talk!" kinda look.
I think people "light-heartedly" bully me in college. Like I don't hear them saying bad things about me, but I can tell they wouldn't really want to hang out with me. I guess thats not bullying, though.

Catholic school here, too. I don't have a prob with catholic schools. Mine was actually pretty good ad enforcing the rules. Its just the damned self-entitled classmates....

Pretty much always when I'm around a group of people for a set amount of time.

Yes, even now.

Seriously.

It's one reason why I can't work with people; I don't take it nowadays. Best for them and me to avoid such.

When I was at school, for some reason I was mostly tormented when walking home. I am ashamed to say that I was tormented by a group of years 8 boys when I was in year 11 (so I was being tormented by 12/13-year-olds when I was 15/16). They used to embarrass me, do things like pull their trousers down and run past me, or get sticks and hit me on the back with them. One time I was walking near a busy road and one of them pushed me on to his mate and then his mate held his foot out, and I tripped over and almost fell into the road. Then one day I caught one of the little bastards in school on his own and I was with friends, and I pushed him against the lockers and saw the intimidated look on his face. I just wanted to give him a taste of his own medicane. But he told on me and I got into trouble because I was ''practically a grown-up'' and ''should know better'' and ''should have dealt with it in a mature way''. But that wasn't the point - I was sick and tired of getting tormented by year 8's when coming home from school, so I was seeing how he liked it.

I was bullied many, many times in my life. Throughout my entire life but the worst time was in middle and high school. Middle school I would come home with bruises and cuts and once they threw something at me and left a cut under my eye. It just missed my eye. I would be kicked and punched. Once a student stabbed me with a pen while I was working and it bruised my ribs and I was the one that was suspended even though the student is the one that should have been. It was because I started to cry and scream at the student. The teachers were always on the bullies side. It was because the teachers made fun of me as well by calling me "stupid" and "incapable of doing anything useful." Later after I was done with school (college was no problem they were more mature and understanding) I was bullied online. Including this site! I was severely bullied on here and it was because I was telling everyone about my speeches and then it turned into a whole fight. It was nasty. I was bullied on schizophrenia.com and they thought I was faking it for attention and then they put all my personal information like address and other personal stuff and made fun of everything about me and started conducting research of things I posted on other sites to really get me angry. I couldn't go to the moderators because it was the bleep hole moderators that were doing this to me. It was highly illegal but we couldn't do anything about it. I am banned on the site because of the bleep hole moderators and never can post there again. I am not an bleeping faker because fakers are liars and they will go down in the burning hell below. I know in the past I did post weird though and sometimes it looked like a troll or joking even though I am not. I have been threatened by a student in one of the schools I went to that he was going to kill me and he did stab a teacher with a scissor before. Yeah it caused most of my problems because of the trauma. It was awful and I still can't escape it. Bullied all the time. Ridiculous. Maybe its all my fault.

Middle school is definitely the worst time for bullying. Kids are more apt to bully in that age group.

When I was a kid I got bullied a lot. I always resorted to physical attacks to show bullies they were bullying the wrong person. In sixth grade, there was a kid who was bullied more than I was. So that kid would come try to bully me (by making fun of me) even though I tried to tell his bullies off.

Back when I was in school I was bullied a lot. I was called names like "Hood Girl" and "Hoodlum". One day I had a meltdown cause they pulled the hood on my hoodie down. I got so upset. I tried to punch and bite them, and I had to be put in restraints cause I got so out of control.

Nowadays I don't get bullied, I just get weird looks now and then.

Not particularly often thankfully. A few years ago someone tried to beat me up, but I got the principles attention, and they were expelled fairly quickly. No one has messed with me since.

Back in elementary school I would have to deal with other kids calling me names, stealing my stuff out of my desk and backpack, and ripping up my papers. There used to be a group of girls in my third grade class who would take whichever book I was reading at recess and run off with it, or after I gave up on using that half hour to do anything useful they would follow me around and call me names. Needless to say, I became pretty good friends with the playground-monitor-lady that year.
Middle school was awful, not only because two of the girls from my elementary school ended up there in a couple of my classes but also because that was when I had to start taking P.E. Nearly every sport turned into a version of dodgeball.
After three horrid years there, I only had to deal with the name-calling and whatnot through ninth grade. Starting in tenth I was on the honors/AP track and I ended up being surrounded by different, more openminded people. Since then I've earned a decent amount of respect for someone who hardly talks and have become something of a celebrity to hundreds of people I don't know, even outside my old school (I graduated as the preferred of three valedictorians and I credit my possible AS with getting me most of the way there).
I have to say that college is honestly one of the greatest things to ever happen to me. They have TWO silent floors each with a soundproof room!

Yeah, I hear you. It's terrible, isn't it? Fortunately, I was not physically assaulted frequently or seriously, but it did happen. I hit back though; I made it half-way to a black belt in Karate so I could kick and punch effectively. My only (and best) friend in elementary school and I were constantly called "gay" by other kids and most of the torment was emotional. But, like I said, I didn't care much.

Catholic schools are okay and definitely good at enforcing the rules. Mine was very strict, especially with the uniform. I remember a teacher making a big deal because I supposedly wore the wrong sweater vest to school! Ridiculous!



I didn't quote it, but your school experience sounds tough. I'm sorry to hear that. I can relate to your forum experience. The same thing happened to me on another forum. The moderators did all kinds of cruel things, although they did close a thread that was started about me after I was banned because someone posted information about me that they found (I have since de-linked myself across the internet so it won't happen again). A moderator did steal information from one of my PMs (not to him) and posted a link that allowed the person to find my other stuff and post it. They also said I was trolling or being funny when I was just being serious.



Oh yes, I remember kids stealing my books and stuff and running away with them. Girls would also scream in my ears because they knew I hated loud noises.

Never. At least since grade 6. And even back then, it was rare.

I was verbally and emotionally bullied, never physically bullied.

Kindergarten: No real bullying

Grade 1: A boy would call me a "crybaby"

Grade 2: There was a girl who used to say "There's a spider on your head" and once she took it further and talked about privates

Grade 3: None

Grade 4: A boy would yell in my ear/another boy called me "crybaby", but it wasn't the same boy from grade 1

Grade 5: No bullying

Grade 6: A girl asked me for money in the cafeteria

The grade 1 and 2 people didn't get in trouble, but they other people did, the grade 4 people were caught and I told the school about the grade 6 girl.

There was no bullying after grade 6, only personality clashes.

Good. Cuz after 6th it gets REALLY bad. Dodged a hollow point bullet, I'd say.

It used to be daily, mostly over my oddness or my weight (I've always been quite heavyset).

However, by the time grade 11 rolled round I had put the fear of death in to more than a few of them, so I've mostly been left alone since then.
