That’s very true. You’re definitely a strong person to have overcome so much and still be standing (and even getting the help you need at this particular point in time) so don’t ever give up hope, love. I’ve got every faith in you.

As for me I wouldn’t say I was bullied as-such (I was more of the underdog who just minded their business so as far as direct toxicity goes people left me alone for the most part) but I did have older years throwing low-key mud on my name for a few different reasons. It all got back to me but face-to-face there was nothing like that, not as far as I can remember. I think also that a lot of kids who look like easy targets really aren’t fazed by what other school-kids who aren’t in their orbit think of them and they get by totally okay (not always, obviously, but a good chunk of the time) so when it comes to things like that I try not to see people as more inherently vulnerable than they are. They might not be.
