Hi guys!

Well i dont believe i have actually posted in this section yet, so i have deecided to tell my entire story.. with details i have left our in the past on here...


Ok well it started back in primary school when i was bullied prefusely by the other 'popular' kids who for some reason, really had it in for me.. I always have been friends with more girls than boy, as i seem to get along with them more, which often prompted 'gay' jokes towards me...
In High School i went to a Public all boys school in Sydney. Ok.. well i wasn't very popular there either.. i was bullied and teased and occasionally physically hurt. I would wake up every morning and dread going to school.. I began to get depression, i had to take medication and have counselling.. i changed schools and went to a Private 'both sex' school, i liked this school, it was much more accepting and i felt at home there.. however, walking to the train-station after school, i had to walk past a McDonalds.. a KFC... and all the rest of them, if i had money, i wuld often by myself and ice-cream.. or even a KFC meal (a burger, chips, 3 wings etc) for an afternoon snack to eat on the train.. I was stll depressed, and did commit self-inflicted wounds (not very serious ones) to myself.. I continued taking my medication and doing councelling etc.. In Year 8 everything started to get better depression wise, i started feeling better mentally and stuff, but i still ate ice-cream and fast food nearly every single day on the way home from school.. I felt *** about my body, i felt ugly.. i remember at the swimming carnival, there was a girl who had a 'crush' on me.. but when i took my top off, one of the popular guys started laughing and shouted out infront of my hole year 'do ya still like him now?'... thet did hurt, but i didnt do anything about it.. I would eat 3 or more scoops of ice-cream every single night, did no exercise.. and was 18 kilograms over-weight at 78kg... anywho, thats my life story, i am now 71kg, feeling good about myself, and enjoying life a hell of alot more! Andi have ice-cream once a week, havnt touched KFC in weeks and am exercising daily!

thanks for sharing your story sam,

my son had issues with bullies too, and didn't really have friends at primary school. he's in an all boys school now, and finds it much more suited to him - he's got a nice group of friends, so that has helped heaps.

i'm really glad you're doing much better now, and can see what a great guy you are!

(((hugs)))

ps bullies suck

Very brave of you to put your story up. It takes courage to reveal yourslelf faults and all.

Very sad to hear of the bullying. It really is more about the bullies than you though, you know that don't ya?

As they say .. Best revenge is looking great, feeling great and when you again meet them one day, knock their socks off with your supreme confidence in who you have become.

I guarantee you, they will still be going around beating other people up to feel better about themselves.

Thanks Izzy and Kaz! ((hugs))

I bumped into one of the kids from the all boys school who bullied me the other day.. he is over-weight, and when he saw me he just pulled the tough guy act and said in a really gangster voice "What you lookin at?" i just laughed at him.. he walked away and i smiled :)

Yay!

Never let them get to you again.
My daughter had some bullying recently, and I wish I'd said the same thing to my son as I'd said to her - but I guess  you live and learn... Basically I said to her that the bullying won't stop until she wants it to - until she can stand up and say No More.. The next day in her health class, (life education) the topic was bullying, and she stood up and said directly to the girls who'd been bullying her Stop It, I don't need this. It seems to have settled down now, and she said to me just last night she hasn't spoken to or been bullied by one particular girl in over a month.

Mind you, my daughter also made a voodoo doll, pinned this girl's name to it, and stuck pins in all over... guess it was something she had to do. I explained to her that the girl was doing it because there's something unhappy in her life, and to not take it personally.

Man i *LOVE* the Four Agreements. My little girl has been reading it and understands the concepts in it, and it's really helping her I think!

Anyhooo I'll leave you with a favourite of mine: Revenge is a dish best served cold...

I bet most of the guys are actually jealous coz you are friends with all the girls and they envy that.. i was best friends with a boy all through highschool and he was often teased and called gay coz he only hung out with the girls..  he just learnt to ignore them.. as the others said here.. its the bullies who have the problems... they are usually so insecure in their own life they only feel better when they are intimidating and picking on others.. You will knock their socks off in a few months with the "new you" and lord help them then lol

well done with your journey so far.. at least you know you have all our support

Well done Sam.You've come a long way.I admire how you have taken the bull by the horns and made such positive changes.You rock!

Those bullies are nobody's! Don't give them any brain space at all!

Remember the saying 'What goes around comes around'.Kharma will prevail!

They will reap what they sow one day!

Keep up the awesome job you're doing Sam
