Is it normal for my friends to always insult me?

No! It is normal for some friends to sometimes tease each other, but if someone is genuinely feeling insulted, then a good friend would stop immediately. Failure of one party to respect the emotions and feelings of the other is a sign of a toxic friendship. The best thing to do in this situation is to talk to your friends and convey that you feel offended by their words. If they continue to disregard your feelings, then this is not normal and should be addressed. In certain situations, the best thing to do can be to leave the relationship for your mental health, and that is perfectly okay. Remember: do what is best for you!

It depends on the friendship group. Some people and friendship groups show compassion and love to eachother in different ways, if you feel that they take jokes too far or repeatedly make you the focal point of a joke have a talk with them. Sometimes the best thing you can do is be open and honest with people you hold close to yourself! If after stating you don’t enjoy it and it makes you feel uncomfortable then maybe it’s time to seek a new friend group that is more understanding of your feelings and needs, a change of company isn’t always a bad thing!
