I am a target for bullying because of my disabilities, and my mental issues. I struggle far too much in school and with friends, and I get backlash for it.

Anyone can be a target for bullying, you personally are probably not doing anything wrong.

I might come across weak to others because I belong to a small group of friends and I am extremely quiet

You are not a target at all. It's always the people that think they can pick on the "weak" ones. No one is weak. And maybe the ones that do bully others have some issues. Ask them why they are messing with you.

There could be multiple reasons why someone chose to bully you, but either way, getting bullied is not and never will be your fault!

Understand that this isn't your fault and you haven't brought it upon yourself. Bullying is a vicious cycle and it could very will be that the person who's bullying you has been bullied themselves in the past (or even at home at the moment). This doesn't excuse them from bullying you though.

Most bullies target someone who is weaker than them or just seems weaker. People are also targeted because they have a nice quality, such as they are in a band, or they are smart. Bullies would also pick at a flaw that someone has, such as they have glasses or they have ance.

Bullies target people for all different reasons, it can be hard to know exactly why and sometimes there is no reason, bullies can and do pick random targets! Sometimes bullies are jealous (hard to believe, but true!), might be feeling low and insecure themselves, want to feel incontrol and powerful, so pick a target that looks "easy", often the most vulnerable individuals.
