Bullying & Cyber Bullying

Bullying! What exactly is Bullying? Well it is a physical or verbal aggression that is repeated over and over again. Bullying leaves the victim feeling devastated, humiliated, depressed and sometimes even suicidal. With new technology comes greater disadvantages. And one of the main disadvantage is Cyber Bullying. Earlier, bullying used to be limited to school playgroups or street corners. But now due to cyber bullying, it can happen anywhere, anytime even in the safest place like home.

In more than 59% of the cases, the victim’s parents and the friends are not even aware about whether their son/daughter or friend is being bullied or not. It makes it really difficult for that person to control their feelings. They often become shy and stop talking to others and keep their world to themselves, which is not the right thing. They should try to open up to their parents, if not them then their closest friend or sibling. If they do not come up and tell what’s really bothering them, then there is no way anyone can help them. If you are in a situation where you are being bullied then either you should report them or confront them to the teachers. By keeping quiet, you are creating a silent world for yourself and other students who maybe next after you.

With the help of Health and Mind Club, we aim to help all such people and create an environment where people can freely communicate. Try to reach out to any member for help, we are always there for you.
