Can you come back to life even if you killed yourself from Bullying or Cyber-Bullying?

  • No, you cannot come back to life if you killed yourself because you are being bullied. Remember that school is not forever and whether you believe it or not now because you are young, once you have graduated from High School and are working generally the bullies you had to deal with will be faded memories and you will never have to deal with them again. Don't give up if you are being bullied. Stay off your computer; don't answer any messages from bullies, but keep all messages for evidence. Talk to your parents; a Pastor; school councillor. Don't let any bully win by making you feel less of a person. Realize that there are thousands of young people being bullied every day at school so you are not the only one. The good news about getting back at bullies is that New Jersey itself has one of the toughest ani-bullying laws and other States are joining up. Good students in some schools are starting up anti-bulling programs to help protect victims of bullying and teachers; parents and law enforcement are much more proactive and laws are going to be changing regardless of the age of the bully so hang in there and don't let a bully or bullies win by putting you down. Your parents; friends and many others love and care what happens to you so reach out and touch someone for help.

Problem:

Online predators can threaten you and your children

Your privacy is at stake.

What is the term cyberbullying?

Cyberbullying involves recurring or repeated harm willfully inflicted through the medium of electronic text. In order for it to be cyber-bullying, the intent must be to cause emotional distress, and there must be no legitimate purpose to the communication. Cyberbullying can be as simple as continuing to send e-mail to someone who has said they want no further contact with the sender, but it may also include threats, sexual remarks, pejorative labels (i.e., hate speech). Cyber-bullies may disclose victims' personal data (e.g. real name or workplace/schools) at websites or forums, or may attempt to assume the identity of a victim for the purpose of publishing material in their name that defames or ridicules them. Some may post victims' photos, or victims' edited photos like defaming captions or pasting victims' faces on nude bodies. One famous forum for disclosing personal data or photos to "punish" the "enemies" is Hong Kong Golden Forum. Cyberbullying is when you're on a site or MSN or some sort of cyber talking site. And then they start talking to you, and soon become so nasty and start to call you names and start using unsuitable words.

Why does he want you his wife and have to have other woman on the side he calls his friends but he has sex with them. He expects his wife to understand that its ok to have these woman in life.?

This is completely nonsense. A man has no right to have a wife and also have other women on the side and have sex with them; what's the point of marrying someone, then? You need to ask them if they also agree on you "having other men on the side". If the answer is "yes", and if I were you, I would just break it up and let him go and be with his "women-on-the-side". I agree his not worth it

What is a bullying experience?

Bullying experiences are experiences that someone may be left with after becoming the victim of a bully sometime in their life. These experiences may be just amusing memories, or they may be very hurtful and have an effect on how someone may live their lives now. For instance, if, as a child, someone had been beaten very badly, when they are older, or when they are growing up, they would be either very wary of people who give them the impression that they are bullies, or they would become bullies themselves. ~ Hexedgirl92 The effects of bullying are really frightening. Bullying experiences are often horrible and left psychological and physical scars on the people. Some people develop social phobia, eating disorders, personnality disorders or even self-injure. Some will always hide their true personnality or will become unable to deal with society. When you see people who looks and sounds like bullies, you can act the way you acted and try to be as small as possible. You might revive all these experiences through a kind of post-traumatic stress disorder and it can be very threatening to your life since you can feel depressed and suicidal when it happens. Some will grow stronger too, but as soon as you're being bullied, seek help... any kind of help since it can damage you quite badly and it can even leads to suicide.
