You can overcome it by seeking help from an adult, your peer or even with guides on any site you come across.

Overcome it by reminding yourself they are not above you in any way and that you have the strength to live your life to the fullest.

This is a really tough question to answer without more context. From my personal experience, I would say make sure you have someone to speak to about this, and make sure you have those around you to provide support. After a while, you will learn to become stronger and rely on those around you to stop being fearful of the bully. However, I also must say this: At the end of the day, it is all about you and your perception of the fear of this bully. This is a hurdle that you yourself must get over - no amount of outside/external support can help you through what is going on in your mind.

First, remember that you are a great human being. No one deserves to be bullied. Some anxiety managing techniques I like to use are square breathing and mental body scans (either of those you should be able to look up!) If fear becomes something you cannot manage or bear with, it's always best to tell an adult. Make sure they understand the severity of the situation, and recognize that you feel unsafe in your environment. Tell multiple adults if you need to. If you feel comfortable, stand up to your bully. Keep friends by your side to make getting through the day easier.
