Bullying
What to do if you're being bullied
If you are being bullied, it can be very helpful to talk to someone you trust. This person might be a grownup such as a Kids Helpline counsellor, parent, grandparent, carer or a teacher. Or you might want to talk to your brother or sister, or a friend -someone who will believe you and listen to you.
When you tell someone about being bullied, it will help if you:
- take your time telling your story. Don't rush
- be honest about who is hurting you and tell your trusted adult what you would like to happen
- if nothing changes keep telling this person and other people you trust about what's happening, or you might like to try telling someone else
