If you don’t feel comfortable talking about it or adding details, you don’t have to answer. I just realized one of my friends who’s cat died recently is being bullied, and her parents and family is rude to her, and she has several medical conditions but doesn’t want to sit out in gym class bcs of her bullies calling her weak. So yea. And she is part of the lgbt community and her parents like and believe her sister more than her. So do you pandas have any experience with this? How did you stop it, or did it continue? Will it stop? How bad was it?

I was actually bullied pretty intensely for all of elementary school, to the point where I've blacked out almost all of it. It continued into middle school until I transitioned and now I only get transphobic bullying, which sucks but is more avoidable (I pass as cis). It was pretty bad but only got physical a handful of times. I'm pretty sure it's to blame for most if not all of my mental health problems but at this point I don't really care. It's behind me and it doesn't seem to be coming back
do you have any tips for how to look more masculine? i currently look pretty feminine and i'd like it to be way more in between.
When I came to the United States i moved to the Bronx and I went into the 8th grade. I had always heard stories that pretty girls get they faces cut and if you had nice hair you’d get bullied so I was already terrified of starting school. A few days after I started school, I walked into the bathroom and three girls came in after me, two of them grabbed a trash can and dumped it on me, the third one told me to leave the bathroom that she’d take care of her friends. Will never forget that girl.
I had a coworker bully. She would ask me personal questions or make various comments about my physical disability. It was just who she was. I am moving to another job but put it out there that it has everything to do with getting a better paying job.
I have been bullied because I’m gay, and because I have autism, I’m just an easy target for bullying, I stand out from everyone else because I’m unique and fabulous. I was actually beaten up by my bullies and they made me afraid of everyone and gave me some serious mental trauma and an eating disorder. My mom insists that I’m fine, but I’m not fine, I have an eating disorder and I might die from it.
Wow that’s horrible. I hope you recover from the trauma and eating disorder. I didn’t realize bullied actually beat up victims. I’m so sorry.( p.s. This reminds me of Charlie spring. I can see why you like him. Love the heartstopper series, btw )
I got bullied a lot in elementary school and I almost killed myself. Thankfully we moved but it’s started up again with notes on my locker. I’m autistic but that’s no excuse even if I’m weird. It hurts.
I have never been consistently bullied but i have been picked on for my face a lot for whatever reason, forehead, expression, nose, etc. The biggest time though was for a while in middle school. I make this one facial expression when i get anxious or uncomfortable, people caught on and started calling me this one nickname. I didn’t care a bunch until people purposely started to try and make me as uncomfortable as possible just so i would make the face, it died down after awhile but still
Being on the other end of this, Ive been out of school for 20 years, and I have to say that alot of my 'bullies' from the school times are people I hang with now... The ones I didnt have to beat on. I dont mean to condone violence, but alot of bullies wont mess with you if they know you'll make it difficult for them to do so... Anyway, some people grow up. Just not while theyre in middle school.
