Bullying is when a person gets picked on. It can happen at work, school, or in social situations. It can even happen within families.

Bullying can take many forms. It may be name-calling, physical violence, making someone feel awkward, or intimidating phone calls, texts or emails.

Talk to someone if you are being bullied.

The effects of bullying can be physical, emotional or, sometimes, both. It can be very damaging to the person being bullied and can cause sadness and depression.

If you are being bullied, it is important to remember that it is not your fault and there is nothing wrong with you. The bully is usually jealous and cowardly, and behaves in this way in order to try to make them look and feel better.

If you are being bullied, you should talk to someone about the situation. You may want to confide in a parent, teacher, colleague, or friend. Alternatively, you can contact a support group, or a telephone help line, for advice.
