    I get bullied at my park there are some guys which come and we play hide and seek. They are mean and they didnt let me play. One guy didnt even count me when he was counting who would be the seeker. The second guy did but he is mean too. One counting is that you have to pick the earth to leave with you or somebody you like (picking the eath means you vote out yourself and arent the seeker). And i always become the seeker after that counting. Nobody picks me. One day when i was the seeker i saw a guy and ran to the wall where i was counting to say stuka! Thats how we say that in our country. He told me that i was counting there and not where i ran to my wall. I remember i counting there. Everybody else agreed to the guy and i had to be the seeker again. Sometimes we get along and say hello bro and hi and something like that but often times i feel alone. When i go to the park i am scared but some time later i get along. Do i have anxiety or what? Please tell me if i do and how to get along, thank you.

    Tbh, standing up for yourself is the only option. If you choose to ignore, it’ll only get worse. Also most bullies are cowards so if you step to them, they’ll more than likely back off.

    I hope ur fine right now i got bullied too but mentally and I would go to school and feel like the whole class was making fun of me , ignoring me, being against me. It was the most terrible experience I have ever had, to anyone who’s getting bullied in school just give them two chances and tell them to stop if they didn’t I would say BEAT THEM UP! Because they don’t understand words anymore u can’t talk thing over with them u gotta use violence with them like how they do cuz they don’t stop even if u tell the teacher they can’t stop the bully u got to defend urself!! If I beat their ass up they wouldn’t have done it again especially for girls (im a girl)

      Hi there, it's completely understandable to feel that way. Getting into a relationship for the first time can make one feel both excited and nervous. But it's okay to take your time and not force yourself to rush into anything.

    These are helpful suggestions. However, I have broken out of loneliness by spending time with the Lord, Jesus Christ, everyday. The same way I eat everyday I spend time reading the Holy Bible and praising God everyday. Also, serving in my local church helps too.

    If it’s verbal bullying, beat them at their own game. Go blow for blow and hurt them back. If it’s physical, then defend yourself and do whatever’s necessary, showing no mercy and striking any and all weak points till someone stops you or they’re on the ground and can’t get up. Watch out for their friends and have some of your with you to back you up.
