My Best mate, is being bullied, the sort of. Physical Bullying. He is getting thumped in the nose, he even had all of his cloths robbed once. Thanks to me i have been able to stick up for him. But its geting worse. Every night he goes to bed and starts digging at the back of his legs with a knife.
You need to tell a teacher or his parents, I know people who have been in situations like that where something is happening to someone and there friend has had to do the right thing and tell a teacher/parents and it has even cost them there friendship, but it is the risk you have to take as a friend, you may lose his friendship in betraying his trust but you know that in your heart you have done the right thing and that he will be better off in the long run and may even come to forgive you when he sees the error of his ways.
i carnt he lives with his dad. and he doesnt let let him play out much.
His dad wouldent care, and a few days ago he actully has one big slash. Im worried. Ill tell my mum and dad and tehy wont belive me.
Your mum and dad should believe you over such a serious issue, if he goes to the same school as you tell a teacher!
If it's getting that bad, you and him need to report it to someone if you haven't done so already. Report it to the school if it's happening inside the school grounds, if you feel uncomfortable about reporting it to your school, then go to the police. Physical violence is illegal, and they will do their best to look out for you and your friend.
If your friend is feeling suicidal, or feels he has to injure himself as a result of being bullied then please try and talk him into seeing a doctor or talking out his problems with someone he trusts. No one deserves to be treat like dirt; and pushed to the point where they can not cope. It just isn't nice.
I hope your friend feels better soon and gets through this experience spiritually stronger. :)
Sit him down, talk to him, tell people.
If all else fails, buy him a baseball bat for Christmas.
Tell him it's pathetic & losers cut them selves for attention.
& to handle it a different way.
who the :rude: do you think you are?Quote:

Read it again, I said that people cut themselves for attention, and that he should handle it a different way.
i told him, hes stopped. i seen his legs in Pe, today there all diced up.
A responsible adult needs to be told otherwise it could spiral out of control & have drastic consequences.
Emo people cut themselves.
I do not understand it. You are already in pain.. why would you want to be in more pain?
I dont get it..
So he copes with the bullying by cutting himself. Cutting himself so other people will see the cuts and go OMG look at that guy I must talk to him about his problems.Quote:

cutting is not attention seeking -.-
sterotypers. :/
Just talk to him and tell him that people can help him cope in safer ways.
don't just start a convresation on it with him, he probebly wants to no his true friends
so go to the cinema or just make teh guy laugh so hes happy then get down to the serrious problem and talk to him ... works with my friends when they are in that kind of place
Hes stopped cutting his legs now.
As you now know he does it, you have to tell a teacher and they will inform his parents.
It is against the law to not tell anyone.
This is a serious issue and you must tell a teacher thats the only person you need to tell, as they will tell the persons parents and arrange help for them.
Why doesn't he move school if hes gettin bullied? And why isnt he telling his parents, he can sort it out him self if he trys and as for self harming its just a way to seek attention so make sure he gets it go straight to a teacher.
When are you going to get it into your head that not all Emo's cut themselves? I mean, are you an Emo? 'Coz if you're not, how the hell can you say every Emo cuts themselves? :rolleyes:Quote:

Have a nice quiet chat with with your friend. Let him know that hurting himself isn't going to stop the bullying, and that he should stop it.
Matt, cutting is sort of for attention but some people mis-interpret the sort of the attention they are seeking for, not the kind of attention of which they are egocentric but the attention for help.
"Emo" Stands for Emotional Doesn't it? and when people get Emotional and depresed they tend to cut them selves so they forget about the Problem in there life and consontrate on the Slice they have just made in the wrists... Thats what i alsways though let me know if im wrong...
So you can't really have a go at caleb...
If you think im talking out of my :rude: it's cause i've not been sleep in 24 hours
Sort of attention yeah, but not to show off or anything.Quote:
