As soon as the person being bullied feels abused, its abuse.

In my opinion all bullying is abuse. Whether it be verbal or physical.

Bullying is a type of abuse.


I am tired of this world, it's people. I'm tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives. They claim their labours are to build a better world, yet that world is populated by horrors. Prehaps this world can't be saved. Prehaps nothing can be. But it's too late. Always has been, always will be. Too late.

Bullying itself is abuse, like InnerDarkness said. It doesn't matter how severe the bullying is, all forms and types of bullying are abusive. If your being bullied, please tell someone that you can trust before it gets out of hand!

Bullying becomes abuse once someone puts you in a situation you feel threatened, degraded, harassed or anyway which you do not feel comfortable. Bullying can be big things or little ones. Bullies need to be stopped A.S.A.P! It’s not right that people walk on others. Don’t be a victim start talking to community figures I’d even recommend talking to the police.

If you actually knew how much damage a bully can do you'd be shocked. To think a bully can take nice people and turn them miserable. If you know anyone being bullied don’t avoid them, help them! Talk or Fight if they won’t, you need to be the hero no matter what you do to win. Bullies are ruining today’s society, its even happening in the work place.

To bully someone means to abuse them in some way of physical or mental or some other way. If it's not abuse, then the person wants and likes the bullying hoping it'll continue. If one doesn't have that view, then it is abuse.

Bullying is abuse... simply. I think some thesauruses will genuinely list them together.


If you've got some spare time, read this:

But don't if you're easily triggered. If you're not easily triggered then go ahead.
