What is wrong with me?!?


Question Posted Thursday October 3 2013, 5:20 pm

I am a 14 year old girl and people treat me like I have dyslexic hearing or my ears and my brain are messed up. I've felt this way ever since I was 7. Like today, I came in my classroom and one of the guys said, "shut up, it's her." EVERYONE treats me like this but nobody will tell me what's wrong with me and I'm tired of feeling this way.. People always stare at me, they sometimes kick and punch me. I hate it. I talk to my family but they just tell me to ignore it which is kind of hard to do when these kind of things happen to me EVERYDAY! I'm tired of it. I do have some some friends but they just tell me, they dont think anything is wrong with me. Please, help is much appreciated.

I really, really don't want to sound rude, and I am probably wrong. But from what you have said, its sounds like you might have some kind of disorder or disability. Try to think about what makes you different from everyone else, is it your school marks? How you dress? How you look? Are you extremely shy? Things like that. The things that make us special and unique are unfortunately used by bullies to make us feel like these things are bad. If you can find what it is about you that makes you different and special, you will find the source of it all. Then, find help to make it less obvious to the world. E.G I used to get teased for wearing glasses so I wear contacts. Don't get me wrong, everyone one is special or different in ways, but if you are bullied because of it you might want to try and stop the bullies. Hope this helped and good luck <3

I remember trying to explain to my mom how mean the kids at school were to me and she didn't believe it either. I guess parents just don't think other kids could be so nasty at such a young age already. they would believe it if they saw it though. The advice to ignore being kicked and punched is not good advice. As a parent, I had to go to school and talk to teachers and principals whenever a child had trouble. Of my 3 daughters, it was my oldest that got picked on, not the two younger. It helped that I got involved. Your parents haven't a clue what to do or time to do as I did so they push the responsibility to solve it back on you.
We have to develope thick skin and try to ignore the occasional verbal teases and insults. But a constant flow of it accompanied with putting a hand on you sounds like bullying to me. If they're sly enough to not get caught by teachers, I think the teacher needs to be aware of what is going on behind her/his back if you tell them what is happening and ask them to try extra hard to pay attention to the ones who are the most blatant offenders and try to catch them at it. Until they have proof, its hard to do anything about disciplining any one or several kids for bullying. But either way, it is a good idea to talk to school officials, your counselor. No kid can tell you why they pick on you, someone just starts it and the others mimic and carry it on and dont know why. Never does a person who is picked on or bullied, ever do something that causes it. My daughter was not doing anything that caused her to be picked on. It just took one kid who was popular not liking her personality and convincing their friends to start picking on her. I was picked on all through highschool, name calling and people physically blocking my way so I couldnt travel down the hall to my next class, never hitting me though. There was nothing wrong with me either. If this has gone on for 7 yrs. thats long enough. Talk to school officials. If they are unable to help, I would ask the parents to put you in another school. If they refuse, you may have to talk to other relatives to find someone who will support and listen to you and try to help, an aunt or grandma. I wish you the best dear.
