When I first went to 7th grade
(now going to 8th)
I decided this time I would be the quiet kid since in 6th grade people would know me as the weird kid, so I thought being quiet would mean less people bullying me, I was VERY wrong I never been bullied so much before! I never said anything! Literally! I never spoke a word during school since I had no friends:/ I would get so many mean insults and stares all for just standing there and breathing, people never wanted to sit next to me. But this one day changed my mindset a bit, this boy kept messing with me and this girl and i finally told the teacher about it and she changed his seat, and I told the teach if I could go outside to take a breath and when I went outside I started crying and realized NOBODY liked me. I went back inside, and then the boy said ‘why is she mad?’…. Which was so stupid, I had every reason to be mad. Nobody liked me, everyone hated me, and everyone would bully me. And you had the AUDACITY to say “why is she mad?” BC you’ve been BOTHERING me and I already was annoyed by everyone else but you just HAD to add to that didn’t you? But sadly I didn’t say anything cause I’m a little stupid pushover (still am, I think? I don’t know) and just sat there until passing period came and i realized i would go through that same hell again for 8th grade. (Also p.s I went through so much more but that’s just one of my experiences)

I can reassure you that 7th grade is a weird experience for every one of us. I also got bullied for multiple things.(my music taste, clothes, my family's financial situation...) And it literally felt like hell. But right now, when I look back, I can confidently say that in the future it won't matter. Yes, it might leave some scarring within you, but I can guarentee you those people won't mean anything in the long future. But staying silent is NOT the answer for bullying. You have to be able to speak up for yourself even though that means staying alone or being uncool. You don't have to be the cool kid(for them) If I were you, I would try to start speaking up, taking a bit more space. Don't be afraid to be loud, take space. You are supposed to experince living so don't try to shrink yourself into the places you don't belong. I trust you and I know you'll find a way. And just because it will pass, it doesn't mean your feelings aren't valid. They are totally valid.

in 7th and 8th grade i was known as a quiet kid and had no friends. i was also bullied, and i'm also naive so i didn't notice when they were bullying me. i know you are going to 8th grade, but when i got to 9th grade i began to open up and speak up. maybe you can in 8th grade if you want. as a freshmen i was more extraverted and was finding who i was. i still am. people teased me less when i joked back, and when i opened up a friend group reached out to me and they're still my friends. so it does get better. but if you still struggle, just remember you only see these people for 5 more years. what they say does not matter. just keep calm and worry about urself. i've already had so many embarrassing things happen in high school and went home crying, and that wouldn't have happened if i stayed quiet. but i would rather be myself. i'd rather be the weird kid and unmask

Honestly, 7th was a super rough time for me too. 8th grade gets SO much better and it’s so much more fun! I’m currently going into my freshman year, but like I said. 8th grade will be a lot better. I wish you luck!!

i'm so sorry you had to go through that for your seventh grade year :( i'm also going into eighth grade, and one of the main ways I would get people to stop bothering me and taunting me like that is to just simply ignore them :/ it's probably something you've heard at least once, but if you don't give them a reaction, then eventually they stop constantly annoying and bothering you all the time. If it works, you might still get an occasional poke or prod by some annoying people, but if you just keep a straight face and pretend they aren't there, they eventually just give up trying to get a reaction. This might not be as helpful as I personally think it is, since everyone's experience is different, but it's always worth a try!! If you don't let them get to you, and keep doing stuff you like doing, eventually you might find friends with the same interests as you!! I really and genuinely hope this helps!!! And remember, life gets better!! :3

I just stumbled across this and I'm sooo sorry to hear you're going through that. I also had people bully me for no reason in middle school and I can't say there's much to do about it because sometimes administration is really backwards. But things do get better (I know everybody says that but it's true) and try to just have fun being yourself! Take the time to enjoy your hobbies and stuff. Real friends will show up for you eventually.
