Is confronting my bully with voilence a valid option? If there is nothing else I can do?

Confronting a bully is a bad idea. Generally a bully does the bullying solely for attention, if you don't give them the attention they want they should back down.

Confronting anyone with Violence is never a good thing to do so think carefully before confronting anyone, Think about ways you can confront someone bullying you without violence . There are ways to do this , show them that you are better than they are show kindness and try to understand why someone would be a bully, it could be because they are not happy with their own life , we never know what others are going through, it doesn't excuse their behavior at all , also make sure that you are not alone if you decide to confront a bully or bullies, also make sure that you have discussed this with everyone you possibly can. Work on ways you can also build your own coping skills and ways to handle the bullying , once a bully realizes you are no longer affected by them they tend to stop or move on to someone else, which isn't good either but if everyone would show the bullies that they are not affecting us then hopefully bullying will one day stop. It is very hard to take someone bullying us and I am so sorry this has happened too you and everyone else.

It isn't necessary to confront a bully with violence because usually bullies are propelled by emotional forces . When you stand up for yourself in a neutral way and show that you aren't going to be belittled by the words of the bully then they hit a wall . Normally a bully doesn't want to continue trying to bully someone who is strong emotionally because this is their area of avoidance , and the reason they bully in the first place . When you stand up for yourself you are actually helping them to confront their own problem . But how you do this is important : it must be neutral , meaning the purpose of it is not to fight them but to demonstrate they cannot hurt you . Show that you are not an easy target and even forgive them , and they will probably get tired quickly .

There is usually always something that you can do. I feel that involving violence will only create more violence and cause harm to all that are involved, including yourself. I feel like you do not want to hurt anyone, nor be hurt yourself in a situation like this. I feel like if it were me, I would walk away, that is usually an option, as well as, asking for help from authority figures. You could always make a lot of noise and attract attention of others by yelling help or fire in order to divert the attack. Confronting a bully who is already violent could cause the bully to get worse. It is a good idea to avoid the bully at all costs.
