I'm not gonna lie, I've done it once before. But when i got to highschool, it's come to the point where the popular girls make vomiting noises near me and the boys ask me out as a joke or a dare.

Bullying is not something that should be done to anyone. People that like to bully other people are just full of hate. They don't have anything better to do with their lives. I have been bullied before and it isn't fun. People say that My Forehead is bigger then other peoples but I don't see it. But does what they say affect me. I always try to blow it away but that doesn't always help. But I know I always have friends there to help me. If you are being bullied tell someone. Don't just keep it inside. There is people out there that will help you, And it is much needed if you are getting bullied. Tell your parents. teachers, Principals, or any trusty adult.

I was in fifth grade and had about four girls I called my best friends. We called ourselves a "group" and no one else was allowed in. I was a bigger child. Well about two weeks for the summer, these girls starting telling me I was fat, calling me a pig and oinking at me, and they told me I wasn't part of the group anymore. I cried and cried, but I never told anyone about it.

The start of my freshman year of high school I became anorexic because of my fear of not having friends because I was fat. I was 105 at 5'6. I was hurting my body because of something someone said. Then people started saying I looked sick and I was too skinny. 

No matter what people are going to be mean. You've got to love yourself for who you are. Be who you want to be, and don't let anyone tell you can't. It's easier said than done, though. 

If you're being bullied, PLEASE let someone know. You arent the only one, and it can be stopped! Check out what your school can do for bullying. There are websites, phonelines, counselors, organizations, and people who will listen. YOU DONT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS ALONE. 

Much Love,

I have been a constant bullying victim due to my views on gays. My older brother is gay and I proudly sport my rainbow bracelets and have my anti discrimination stickers. I hope to one day shed my title as a victim and become a leader against bullying so please if you see bullying dont just let it happen do something!

my little sister got bullied. She is six years old, I have been teased about my religon. My little sister was kicked, hit, threatened, restrained, forced to eat non-edible things (like rocks, dirt, bugs, dirty popsycles) and told us nothing. We finally relized why she kept telling us she didnt was to go over their when our mom said to walk her over. I am making sure she dosent even get to look at that girl again

One day I walked down the hall and my friend walked past me crying. I asked her what was wrong and she started sobbing and told me how she was being bullied. I had her talk to our wonderful counsler so things were better for her. WE NEED TO CHANGE<3

We have reached a tipping point when it comes to bullying. This is a totally different era and bullying is not harmless anymore...it's downright deadly. My heart breaks with each new teen suicide that occurs. We CANNOT simply stand by and pretend this is not happening or that it's "part of growing up". Everyone should do something, no matter how small, to contribute to the effort to stop this bullying pandemic. We all have a lot of little chances that pop up every day in our lives to do something about this. Don't turn the other cheek. Help in any way you can.

I hear the pain and despair from students, and know adults that still hurt from things people did or said in school.  I'm a teacher, and every teacher at every school can make a difference in a student's life by standing up to the bullies.  We have to say no to bullying EVERY TIME, EVERY DAY.  Kids who are bullied can't think about Math or Science.  We want students to THRIVE, not just survive one more day.

I think I am being bullied people who I once called friends are no longer my friends for months now they are always teasing me stealing my things calling me names glaring at me throwing things at me making jokes about me behind my back and purposley trying to get a reaction off me (they even said that they were to my face) I tried telling them I dont like it and they just laughed and said that they wouldnt care if it was them and that sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. Well they hurt me I try to stay away from them but they follow me. However I am so greatful for my best friend because she is being bullied by them to so I know I will always have someone there for me who I know cares

i know how hard it is to be bullied and have to face the same people day after day. I know how hard it is to have to start over completely. But i also care because i know it gets better, however hard that might be to accept at the time.

Bullying takes away all your ego and self respect. Do as much as you can to stop it!

The effects of bullying can be long-lasting and extremely harmful.  Long-term depression, self-esteem issues, and social anxiety can become crippling mental health issues.  It is a blow to self-esteem, to security, to civility.  The responsibility belongs to all of us: Report bullying if you see it.  Talk to somebody if you?re being bullied.  Stand up against it.  Stand up for each other.

im constantly being bullied in school every day. Simply because of being me, i try to keep to myself & basically i'm a loner. People don't understand me so they push my buttons and try to get me to crack. Im down to my boiling point but i know better than that. the best way to handle bullying is to take it up between the person who is bullying you & a guidance counselor. The bully may not be happy with the decision but its best for you. don't avoid serious situations like this because it can leas to worse situations like : suicide,depression,& anxiety. Do whats right !

I am against bulluying completely, and yet sometimes I actually catch myself bullying.  I feel horrible when I think about I could do something like that. Making people feel bad about themselves, insecure, and not good in any way is NOT what I want to do. Yesterday morning, when I first saw this act, I though about what I could do to make things right. So yesterday at school I went to all of the people I have ever bullied or put down and said that I was sorry. All my friends followed my lead. Today I was given a citizenship award over the anouncements letting everyone in the school know that I wanted to make a change. People think that you get popular BECAUSE you bully?? Ya right. You would be more popular if you prevented it.

there are many countless people in the world that have been bullied one way or another , no doubt that i've been bullied before too and still is . People have this thinking that if you're bullied , you must be a loser . But for myself , i've the bestest friends outside of school ,  but in school , they judge . As long as one person from a certain clique does not like you for no reason , the whole clique dosen't . Of course there are those who stand up and make a difference in their clique . It hurts , it kills , it was the worst moments of my life & i care so much because i know how crushed a victim will feel . I feel so passionately to step up and talk about teen bullying , i want to make a difference , i want to create an awareness . Words can't explain , but bullying is serious . However , i grew stronger , not totally healed but i learnt how to handle it better , learnt to stay positive and most importantly love myself . stop bulllyinng

no one should feel worthless. Hearing Jamey Rodemeyer's story really touched me. No one should have to deal with cutting words about their race, gender, sexuality, religion, or appearance. We often don't realize how our words and actions impact others.

the people being bullied are living something awful :'(
this has to stop now, is so sad to see all those things are happening, I used to be bullied & I know how it feels.
Sometimes I just cry myself out thinking what society has done :'( It's just so sad.

BULLYING ENDS WITH ME <3 I'll do anything to change this, Olivia didn't die in vain.

I was bullied when I was a kid, and it has really affected me now. I was always called "fat", "chubby", and "ugly". Once I grew up, I always compared myself to the girls on TV, the magazines, even girls that walked by me at school. It's really sad when kids bully other kids when they're only 9 years old. The bullying got to me so much, I was thinking of suicide, I felt like I didn't belong, I felt worthless. The only things that stopped it were my family and friends. And hope. Another reason I wanted to commit suicide was my diabetes. I noticed I had it when I was about 10, and whenever I had to give myself a needle.. everybody would look at me. I felt like the odd man out. I say that bullying does need to stop. Remember, One Million starts with One. :)

My son was bullied to the point where this other child broke his hand last year.  He cried every time he went to school or came home from school.  We need to teach our children to embrace diversity and individuality.  Parents-you are the role models - teach your children well!

bullying someone makes them feel low about themselves; makes them feel ashamed to be themselves. And NO ONE deserves to feel like that. Sometimes they feel so low about themselves, that they start to feel worthless. They end up committing suicide. I care because a lot of these victimes dont even make to be 15 years old. Bullying NEEDS to STOP! I'm sick of it!!

I am not personly effected by bullying, but I have seen what it can do. My older sister was driven to be home schooled in the 7th grade because people were so mean to her. And I  watched her come home from school crying because she was so upset. I know that most of the people who say those things are either saying it because someone else is, or saying it to make themselves feel better. So really I feel bad for them, and I know that to be better than them, I have to just shrug off whatever they say, because I don't have to care.

People think I'm different because I'm not exactly like them. They think I'm weird. They make fun of my clothes, my thinking, everything. i've been bullied since I was 11 years old, now I'm 18. 
I grew up without a father at my side, I was insecure. Bullying should stop. It's worldwide problem and we might be different, which is cool, but no one should be considered weird. Afterall, we're all just humans.

my bro was getting bullied when he was 8-9 because he couldn't read very well. i knew i had to help him because his grades started dropping and he started faking sick because he didn't want to go to school. after a few years of helping him, he is the best reader in his class and nobody bullies him anymore because his is a very polite person.
