Wow, that’s a lot. Mine’s not exactly crazy but something I’ll never forget about is about how badly I’ve been bullied. Thankfully, it stopped now but it made me a worse person overall. Trust issues, terrified of others bullying etc.
I wish I could stand up for myself but I didn’t because:
a) I’ve been told repeatedly that they’ll stop if I ignore them long enough. They didn’t stop, but I still believed they eventually would.
b) nobody did anything anyway, so I should have played vigilante. When I told my teachers, headteacher etc. they did nothing. When I told my parents, it’s apparently my fault for provoking him.
c) I’m too weak to even stand up for myself. I’ll get beat to a crisp.
So, yeah, I’m never going to forget that, by the looks of it…
