Yes bulling can cause problems in the future. Sometimes can cause people to overthink it and sometimes get a mental disorder (e.g. Depression, anxiety ect) it can also lead someone to getting an eating disorder, but usually low self esteem and low self image will be the likelihood and not nessiarilly as extreme as the cases I first said, but looking forward and positive always helps as bullying is mainly in school and one day will be over

Bullying can often be kind of traumatizing, and yes, it can be a part of you in later years. Our experiences shape who we are, and negative events can leave us feeling weak, sad, or worthless in the future. However, the best thing to do is to try to overcome those feelings and be the best you that you can be, letting the positive dictate you.

it does to a degree depending on who you are. It can cause self doubt, fear, and lack of trust of others. But can be resolved by spending time with people that do indeed care.

Yes surely bullying can give problems in later years. The self-image could be severely damaged, your social skills could also be not so good. Also emotions from these events could be trapped within your body and thus creating a constant disturbance for your bodies different organs. So ... sure. But as always. One need to start where you are at this moment. So cleaning up trapped emotions, is as good place to start with. One method to do that could be "The Emotion Code" by Dr Bradley Nelson. Hypnosis with a focus on self-esteem could also a start. You need to set your self-worth yourself. And realize that you cannot please everybody. But you can try to please yourself, and those you choose to keep close to you.

YES 100 times YES. If I wrote the word "YES" 100 times, could it be more convincing? Bullying not only kills enough teenagers every year for cyberbullying to have become a felony in many countries, it causes scars that are very difficult to heal. If the bullying begins before the child realises there is a way to end the bullying, for example in infancy, they can learn acquired "helplessness", which is a sort of hopelessness that leads a bullying victim to expect to be bullied and to expect no help. If you have a child who is bullied, or a member tells you they have been bullied, getting them onto an effective intervention to not only end the bullying but also to deal with its effects can CHANGE THE COURSE of THEIR LIFE. Without intervention, bullying can become a trauma that remains a source of low self esteem and leads to a cycle of repetitions of bullying and violence. This cycle only ends when the bullying victim finally learns they never deserved the bullying in the first place, and that they are not in fact helpless anymore, even though they might have been helpless in the first instance. Thanks for the question

Of course it can. When you lived years over years with people calling you ugly or whatever, This will never fully leave your brain. You'll always stand in front of the mirror, even years after and ask yourself if they where wrong or right. Well guess what?! THEY'RE WRONG!! Every single human being is beautiful on her/his own way. Bullying is just intolerant and stupid! Just tell yourself that you're beautiful until you believe it. This will help you live a happyier life. :)

Yes, it can cause problems later mainly revolving around self-esteem or self-image. When you're bullied, you perception of yourself seems to be affected by the names you're called or the way you're treated. However, most of the time all the psychological wounds inflicted by bullying situations can be overcome by working on loving yourself and being strong!

Yes, definitely. Bullying causes issues with self-esteem and can also cause nightmares, anxiety and panic attacks. Depending on the level of bullying, it can also cause trust issues.

It can only cause problems IF you choose to let it be a problem. You have the power and are capable of stopping it, by simply ignoring the bully. Most people bully because they're most likely insecure about themselves, and therefore choose to bully as a means to cope and make themselves feel better. If it persists, talk to a trusted friend, parent, teacher, or principal for advice on how to handle the bully. You can also check out our bullying self-help guide for additional information.
