made fun of.
In Junior high and high school Teachers/coaches heard me getting made fun of and did nothing. My poor parents didn’t know what to do either.
Fighting back with words only encouraged the bullying. I didn’t know how to sit and not react…which was the problem. I tried to but couldn’t to it for long enough for them to get bored.

I’m in my 30’s and still going to therapy over it. I have nightmares ~5 times a week. And sometimes during those nightmares I scream out obscenities (usually “f*** you”) out loud. (I’m yelling at the bullies or other random people in my dream).

It’s been entertaining for roommates haha.

On a positive note I have lots of empathy as a result.
