How long ago did the bullying occur or are you still in secondary school?
I got bullied daily throughout Secondary school by a group of chavy girls who made a joke out of my name and kept it going for over 2 years. They also made fun of my social media profile (Bebo at the time) and attacked me for my race.
All of this had a negative impact on my life in general including my education, my grades were extremely average as I never tried due to anxiety and feelings of depression from being picked on.
Even in college, my social interactions were absolutely ****, especially in groupwork, due to the fear I had from being a victim of bullying.
This changed as I started uni and got away from those nasty *****es. Uni allows you to reinvent yourself and people are more mature for the most part. My confidence developed greatly and now I'm completely comfortable with who I am and idc what people think of me.
There isn't much I can tell you to help you, it's something you'll have to find within yourself and that takes time and experience, so it's just something that you eventually overcome as you get older.
There are people out there who do accept you for your looks and accent and whatever makes you who you are.
It makes me feel good now seeing where I am in life, in comparison, most of the girls who bullied me live tragic lives and got pregnant before 20 and are living in council houses and it's just as I predicted.
Bullies lose in the end.
In fact, I believe victims of bullies eventually become tougher people in general and end up living far more successfully.
