I was slandered?

[Anonymous]

I was slandered in high school, I was bullied, I was left alone, how can I heal from this, I don't feel good at all.

I’m so sorry, Here's some advice from my perspective on how to heal from being slandered and bullied in high school:

- Give yourself time. High school drama feels huge then but fades with the years. Be gentle with yourself as you process hurt feelings.

- Lean on close friends and family for support. Surround yourself with people who make you feel uplifted. Their comfort can help lessen wounds.

- Reflect on your strengths and goodness that has nothing to do with others' cruel words. Bullying says more about them than you.

- Think of it as a hard lesson learned young. You now know how important it is to lift others up, not tear them down.

- Consider counseling if it's really weighing on you. A therapist can help perspective and validate your worth isn't defined by others' actions.

- Make peace that you may never get an apology or closure from those involved. But you can let go of the past and forgive yourself fully.

- Focus now on living well and being surrounded by caring souls. High school is but a blip; your best days are ahead of you once you heal. You've got this!

With time and self-love, the pain will lessen more each day. Be proud you came out the other side stronger. Happier times are waiting when you're ready.

You are no longer in high school. You weren’t who those people said you were. You weren’t what those people said you were. You were you and you still are. You were and are better than what those people thought you were. Now it is up to you to be the best you that you can be. Show them how wrong they were about you. Forgive them because forgiveness is not about them but it is about you and allows you to move on past it. I have faith in you….

Thank you for this nice comment, it filled my eyes, the bad thing is that I finished high school but I still couldn't get into university, I still go to courses and exams and there are people who bully me, I have to see them every week and I have no friends, and she rolls her eyes at me and looks at me badly, this has been going on for 4 years. She didn't stop bullying.

hi, when you say slandered, what do you mean? stories told about you? called names? demeaned about status etc by girls boys both? one thing i can tell you is that in my lifetime the school years have no relevance to the future of the person, for one a guy who was in the lowest level classes is one of the richest of us now! the pretty ones are fat as hell... you get the picture... often the ones who get bullied are the ones who have such a vibe of difference about them (hence the reaction) because you do not or will not conform the difference is the reason for the reaction of others... take that difference and now let it live, free in the real world... embrace it, nurture it, love it and yourself... xx

Have you tried counseling? Just talking might help you sort it out and make you feel better about yourself.

I tried but I couldn't get rid of depression and anxiety, by the way i use medication.

How long did you go for counseling for?

[Asker]

2 years

It didn't help at all? Maybe you should try another counselor?
