Get help. Don't try to be a hero and don't try to face this alone. You are not alone in this. Tell your family, tell your friends, your REAL friends, tell your teachers, tell people here, get support here from those who love you, reach out to strangers. KNOW you are not alone and don't listen to anything they say. Bullying is NOT ok and it is not tolerable. Seek help and don't allow yourself to tolerate it.

Make the best use of the present tools to silence them. All online chat options offer a kind of mute or block button - be sure to use them! Then, consider reporting them for their abusive behavior, and move on. It will be much easier to deal with the issues once the stream of hate is blocked out.

Tell someone who is older to you. Don't be scared of what might happen, go ahead and stand up for yourself

You can block a cyberbully. This prevent them from being able to post or comment on your page. You can also report them, which can get they kicked off of any social media they are bullying on.

Well you could delete your social media accounts, or just ignore it. You could try and tell them to stop as well. But the best thing to do is probably go report them to the police or if you are still in school , tell a principal or guidance counselor. Cyberbullying is a crime and they could get in serious trouble for it.

Report, ignore, and block. Those are the best things you can do. But also tell sn a adult you can trust. Cyber bullying is very dangerous and can damage you mentally so take action if you think you are being cyberbullied.

There is no one best way to stop cyberbullying unfortunately. But if you are being bullied by one of your friends online, your first step is to report the online remarks if they are not in a private message as being hostile and you can private message them if it is appropriate to do so and state that you do not appreciate their comments and would like them to stop. If you are not comfortable messaging them directly then you can use the site to report them

Don't respond or retaliate. If you're angry or hurt, you might say things you'll regret later. People who cyberbully often want to get a reaction out of you, so don't let them know their plans have worked. Block the person who is bullying. If you get mean messages through IM or a social-networking site, take the person off your buddy or friends list. You also can delete messages from the person without reading them. Save and print out bullying messages. If the harassment continues, save the evidence. This could be important proof to show parents or teachers if the bullying doesn't stop. Talk to a friend. When someone makes you feel bad, sometimes it can help to talk the situation over with a friend. Tell a trusted adult. A trusted adult is someone you believe will listen and who has the skills, desire, and authority to help you. Telling an adult isn't tattling -- it's standing up for yourself. And, even if the bullying occurs online, your school probably has rules against it.
