Bullying in high school. There certainly are people who got bullied more but it's been enough to make me feel very uncomfortable in some everyday situations even many years later.

Yeah, it's unbeliavable what hand-wavy bullshit each and every project or initiative to combat bullying is. Must be beacause most of the people who end up in administrative positions have been bullies themselves growing up, all evidence points to shit floating to the top in almost any society.

I can't claim I saw everything that happened during my elementary school years and some cruelty must've happended without me knowing. From what I saw, though, there was just one kid that got bullied more than me, and he ended up killing himself at 16 years old. I often think he might have made a better choice than me.
