Bullying

Bullying exists wherever someone is taking advantage of someone else and making them feel small, inferior or unimportant.

Quite often there are threats of violence or abuse, and can include actual theft from the person being bullied.

Becuase of embarassment, fear of reprisal or simply not knowing what to say or how to say it, bullied children or adults often 'switch off' and try to ignore what is happening.

Whilst many people believe bullying is something which affects just children they would be surprised to realise just how many adults also are subject to its effects.

Every day thousands of adults suffer verbal or physical abuse, perhaps from bosses, work colleagues, customers, or members of their familes.

Many times those bullies are so covert and so clever, that those people who are bullied do not actually recognise it as such.

It is only when they look back over a period of time and replay various events that they begin to understand how they are being mistreated or manipulated.

Sometimes, because we had believed the bully to be our friend we are prone to dismissing those initial thoughts.

'They wouldn’t do that to us’ we say. However, it is only when we recognise what is happening and face-up to the truth that we can begin to take back control of our lives and emotions.
