I'm really sorry to hear about the bullying. Bullying is awful for any length of time, but to have experienced it for as long a you have must be so difficult for you. What has it been like for you?

Monsoon Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Hey there, I completely get why this is getting to you, and it has been going on for a while now hasn't it? It's completely normal to feel this way and it's good that you're speaking about it. I'm wondering do you know what your teachers have done to help? Also, have your parents spoke to the school?

My teachers have helped me by having one to one talks with them and having meetings about it. They've also helped to get a therapist and a cousiler and a mentla health supporter they've given me alot of strategies to use. But the bullying has gone on for way to long the bullying had happened since year 1 in primary school and my primary school didn't know how to deal with the bullying and they didn't resllt help me. My mum has phoned the school and they said there trying to sort it out but it still going on Edited September 16, 2022 by Treacle MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine that, at this point, you're feeling pretty hopeless about it all. It sounds like the school aren't necessarily doing the right things to move this forward. I'm wondering, have your parents thought about speaking with the board of governors for the school? Every school has one, and they oversee how things are ran in school, and if she contacts them, they might be able to move things forward. What do you think?

I'm really sorry to hear about what's been going on. That sounds really tough, especially if it's been going on for so long. And I'm sorry that speaking to the board of governors just made it worse. Do you mind telling me what happened that made it worse? Also, would it be OK if you told us a little more about what has been going on?

Please know that you are not alone and we are here to help Hi aurora I don't mind you jumping in. Well had a meeting with the board about it. They suggested to have a meeting with the person who bullied me to say sorry. I agreed I don't know why I did. I went to the meeting with a teacher. The person was there who bullied me she said sorry but she said a reallt horrible comment on a message to me which I can't say sorry because I don't have the massage anymore. It's one person she has Bullied me eversince year 1 yes we both went to the same primary school. She says horrible comments like I have no friends my life I sad and lonely and she said who would be friends with me. She said a comment about how she Bullied me every day in primary school and that I would cry everytime she did bully me. I was so close to punhing her in the face but I didn't want to. Also thank you I needed to hear the last bit of your message. When the bullying happens now I usually go to the library and tell someone about it which usually makes me end up crying.

Thank you for sharing what's been going on. I'm really sorry that this has been going on for such a long time. I'm glad to hear that you have been speaking to the school about what has been going on. I can understand your hesitance at not wanting to contact the board again as the meeting seemed to have made things worse. However, I would encourage you to keep telling them what is happening and to ask them for a different way forward as having a meeting didn't seem to help. What do you think? Also, I just wanted to reassure you that none of this is your fault. It sounds to me like the girl you've been telling me about might be unhappy herself and this is how she is letting out her feelings. This doesn't make it OK for her to treat you like this! However, if the school could find a way to support her to express her unhappiness without lashing out at others that might help your situation.

I went to my head of year to talk about it and she said she's sorting it out. Today no bullying happened but I fear that everyday it will just happen. Your last message I don't really think so since she has been bullying me ever since year 1 for some reason she has literally really hated me.

I'm glad you felt able to speak to your head of year and that she said that she's sorting it out. Did she tell you what she means by this? I think it would be important to have a plan in place with clear consequences if the bullying should happen again so everyone knows what's going on. Especially as this has been going on for so long and nothing the school has done so far has helped. Maybe you or your parents could ask the school to put this in place and share the plan with you. What do you think? Thank you for sharing that it got so bad in Year 9 and 10 that you thought about ending your life. I know it can be difficult to talk about this. How do you feel now? Are you still having these thoughts? Please know that this is a safe space and it's OK to tell me if you are.

We're here for you No she didn't tell me what she meant by this but I think she was going to have a talk with them about it. Yeah we use to have a plan but before covid it didn't really work the last time we had a plan. The consequences to the bulling is that my head of year said a day in reset and a detention. I just feel hopeless and really Emotional lately I've cried 3 times last night. I have had a day that I did think about ending my life but I stopped myself before things escalated I'm with a therapist talking about it. Which is helping and I haven't had any more thoughts about ending my life. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine it must have been upsetting to hear that comment. What did the others in your class say/do, when you collapsed? I'm glad to hear though that the rest of your week was good and that you're quite confident that your head of year has sorted it out. Keep us posted how it goes. Also, how did your session with your therapist go today. Was it helpful talking to her? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't really focus on the comment that Carly made to me I was just mostly focusing on myself to get my balance back. My friends supported me when i collapsed. Yes it was very helpful to talk to my therapist she suggested that I can have time out if the bullying carries on and gave me alot of advice on how to cope with it. I've got a meeting with the school nurse and miss Emsley to talk about the bullying thats been going lately and in the past.
