Seeing them everywhere... -
January 27th 2011, 04:33 PM
This thread has been labeled as triggering by the original poster or by a Moderator. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.
I'm kind of coming out of a numb phase right now... And I keep seeing the girls who bullied me everywhere. Ikeep having all these memories and feelings come back that I thought were gone and it's so frustrating. Errg. It makes me want to scream and cry at the same time. Except I won't, because I am brave and strong and... Nothing. It's all just a mask to hide how much it all still hurts.
Thing is, it's been two and a half years now. The nightmares have finally stopped, although I still get flashbacks, and I'm so scared they're going to start again. Fml. Sorry if this was the wrong place to put this. All your life, you are told the things you cannot do. All your life, they will say you're not good, strong or talented enough; they will say you're the wrong height weight, or the wrong type to be this or acheive this. They will tell you no a thousand times until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no quite firmly, and very quickly. And all your life, you will tell them yes. <3

This is going to sound probably very generic or cliche, but literally, the best thing to do is to keep your head high and stay strong. Those girls probably have serious insecurities of their own. You can't let their insecurities wear you down.
I understand 100% that even after x amount of years, it hurts. I was physically harassed and bullied for two years before it ended, and to this day, whenever I see those who hurt me, I still have that inner fear. But instead of showing them this fear, I just walk past them and don't bother to acknowledge them. Enjoy your life and try not to worry too much. Girls like that are just asking for drama, trouble, or are hiding something. Be the better person, for yourself. "Although only breath, words which I command are immortal." Sappho

Hey Megan,
I was bullied for two or three years back in elementary school. And quite frankly... it was awful. But I got over it, and so can you. The most important thing is not to live your life in fear. This is, of course, MUCH easier said than done. One of the best things you can do, then, is to try and stop being afraid that your nightmares will come back. Because if you keep dwelling on them, keep being scared of them... there's a good chance that they will. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. And try to let go of those fears. You ARE brave and strong and... everything. You can get past this. Don't let those girls get you down. Try not to even give them even a little piece of your mind -- because they surely don't deserve it. You are strong. Now stay strong. We're here if you need us. 
"Want to know a secret?
You are beautiful. Black, white, gay, straight, bisexual. Whether you are smart or quiet or impossibly in love with your best friend, someone out there cherishes your smile and gets butterflies when you walk into a room. Someone out there can't stop thinking about you. You Are Beautiful. Don't ever believe differently." If you ever want someone to talk to, about absolutely anything, feel free to inbox me!  |
