Sorry, posted this on Reddit and didn’t want to have to write it out again..

It’s hard to move on from things like this but are you currently in therapy or have you thought about therapy.
Look at where you are now. You are in law school. You are doing good. I wonder what those kids are doing in their life now, probably not in law school like you…
You have realize that you are more than what they said about you.

Well one of them was bipolar and he’s having a hard time functioning and he’s in therapy (which is probably a good thing) and another one is in a band lol

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Well, that says a lot. It seems like 80% those who bully never end up having a decent life lol.

[Asker]

Well you would have to be pretty unstable to do that to someone. No normal person does that

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Agreed. Anyone who bullies is unhappy with one part of themselves to they project it onto others.

But I feel like the teachers really started the bullying against me. That’s what hurts the most. They we’re supposed to protect me and they did the opposite. Other teachers also did things to humiliate me in front of my classmatesv

And those teachers should have been reported and stopped teaching. I agree, they are there to protect students, not hurting them.
Shame on them.

Lol thanks

And I really should be doing what I'm about to say, but I don't for other reasons.

But I think the best way is to go to a good therapist & have them create a course to make it easier to adopt positive coping strategies & create a different perception of ourself.

I recommend this video as well. Gives insight from a therapist:

Do you feel like the teachers were the ultimate villains?

[Sonorous]

I definitely think the teachers actions were more malevolent than the kids since teachers brains are fully developed

Ignore those assholes or if they don't stop be completely rude and break the chains that is bullying. Be sassy, angry, sarcastic, and smartass.

Be around positive people who appreciate you

[Asker]

That’s a good idea
