I know you have to be kind to myself

It seems that we are all dealt our cards and then we have to deal with them. "What doesn't destroy us makes us stronger" (Nietzsche)

Stay strong. Believe in yourself.

All the best.

bullies need bullies to make themselves geel good about themselves cause if they were on there own they hate themselves . There always looking for love and approval outside of thenselves to feel good cause they cant look in .
And i tell u another thing about the bullies , the main ringleader who brings other bullies into his or her world is the most person who is afraid cause the person is afraid of themselves .
It usually comes from a bad back ground , and they take it out on anyone that gets in the way .
Im single 14 years over a toxic relationship and left me in a bad way .
3 pysche wards in the one year from the pain of it but i tell u one thing after going through the pain after the break up .
Do u know what she thought ?
Never get dependent on no one for your happiness .
And to the subject of being bullied .
I got abused for 14 years , 365 days of the years non stop by bullies .
Do u know what they all had in common when abusing.
They all were taking out there own shit on me , cause they feel bad they expected me to feel bad and they were gathering amongst there own coming up with other idea's to abuse me more .
And it was all keep quiet tactic to cover up the abuse what was done to me .
I ended up in a pysche ward over them .
Do u know what they thought me ?
Im not one bit like them .
I have a great heart always did .
Im sober and clean 18 years and those situations that happened me if it happened someone else they'd be drinking long ago but im not going no whre cause im always grateful im not drinking and im clean .
Do u know what soberity thought me ?
It's a way of finding your true self and stop playing to the crowd .
Thats what actors do , not all , buu most of them do that in a way of avoiding themselves from there personal lives .
I'm glad im sober and clean cause that drinking scene is all bull shit talk .
All a false way of socialising.
Pretending that there happy and all of that stuff

Sorry to hear that you got bullied

Self defense is a great idea.
