Hi i would like to ask for an advice or just ask you one question but itâs out of theme of the blog. What do you think about bullying and maybe you have or had an experience with it? I just canât deal with bullying at school and it makes me feel dead. You are my favourite blog and thank you for making me smile when Iâm sad. I hope you will answer.
Hello, Anon, Iappreciate that you trust me. Iâm also glad that I can make you feel betterwith the things I do. Asking the question that doesnât refer to Bowie &flowers is alright, âcause youâre not at Botany lesson and you can askwhatever youâd like to know. So Iâll try to be a psychologist for ya and Iâdalso like to warn you, that youâll have to read A LOT. And when I say âa lotâ,I really really mean a lot. Idk will you regret asking me about bullying,because Iâve got the same big experience as A LOT. So get ready, I guess.
Itâs sad that you getbullied at school, but it doesnât mean that you canât get rid of that. Iâmreally sure that you just have to get rid of that, âcause I know by my ownexperience that getting bullied may (and mostly will) give you mentalillness and other probs. Believe me, I know what Iâm talking about. Iâm gonnatell you a little story about my âbullying experienceâ. Not because Iâm askingfor compassion, pity or attention, but because I want you to know what puttingup with bullying can lead to.
So I think Iâll startwith kindergarten time. I went to the kindergarten at another country, becausemy family had moved. (Note: I donât wanna say that people from other countriesare shit just because they are from other counties. Iâm not talking aboutnations, Iâm talking about personalities. No racist things. Every country hasgood and bad people) I always was quite a shy kid and making new friends was andactually still is hard for me. As you know, most of children donât likequiet ones. I donât know how it works and why, but if youâre shy and quiet, getready to be bullied, ââcause youâre weakâ. So most of other children always tookaway my toys, drew in my books, broke my pencils and etc. Iâve been trying, butI couldnât make them stop it. One day they started to throw sand and grass at me and shout silly stereotype jokes just because I said that Iâm Jewish. Thatwas my last day at kindergarten. And nobody could answer my question, âWhatwrong have I done for them to hate me?â Itâs hard to live when you still canâtfind the answer.
What about schoolyears? I became quieter and shyer. All I wanted to do is just to hide myselffor others not to notice me. I was afraid of people, I was afraid to saysomething to them, my self-esteem was as low as Challenger Deep, I wassuffering from anxiety. Iâve never had a lot of friends thatâs why I reallyappreciate the ones that I have (of course, I mean my Tumblr friends too đ). Allthat shit that was happening to me for years gave me the feeling when you thinkthat people hate you. Like, yâknow, youâve been chatting to each others, butyour friend doesnât really write you a lot and you donât really interact recently.And youâre like, âWhat happened? Have I done something wrong? Do they hate me?âWhen they never hated you and theyâve always loved you. Fck I still feel thesame sometimes
âWhatâs the message?âyou ask. All I want you to know is the fact that putting up with bullying canmake you feel like you live in hell. It can make you afraid of everything, itcan make you hate yourself, it can make you wanna hide from the world. Andthatâs not what your life should be. Just stand up, you donât have to be afraidof them. Itâs time for them to be afraid of you! Be yourself, do whatever youlike, donât look at others!
Iâve said it thousandsof times, but Iâll say it again. The world needs more loving and caring people.Of course, thereâs a difference between complaining, nagging and talking about yourprobs or the way how you feel. But it doesnât mean that we shouldnât be kind toothers. It doesnât mean that we should close our eyes when others ask for help.The world may be cold, but somebody should be caring. And Iâm thankful that Iknow some of that kind of people (you know who Iâm talking about).
I also hope that youâllfeel better and write me back when you do. Just let me know when youârealright. Also, this video (x) can help you. Thank you for asking that question andraising that kind of hard topic for convo. No matter what they tell you, youârewonderful and I love you! đ
Peace & Love
