Have you suffered at the hands of bullies? Reach out to a Northern Ireland helpline today.

If you’ve been bullied or belittled at home, school, work or online, you don’t have to suffer alone. There are 2 helplines in Northern Ireland for people who’ve been victims of bullying. Bullying can be physical or psychological, direct or indirect, but whatever form it takes, it always hurts. Bullying can look like:

  • You have been the victim of pranks, rumours, naming and shaming online.
  • One or more people has repeatedly called you names and teased or humiliated you.
  • You have been trolled, insulted or humiliated on social media.
  • A popular or forceful person has told others not to be friends with you.
  • Someone has shared private, negative, false or harmful pictures, content or rumours about you.
  • You have been publicly belittled because of your looks, shape, ethnicity, culture, or financial status
  • One or more people have spread rumours about you, whether true or untrue.
  • Your personal items have repeatedly been damaged or taken by others on purpose.

No matter how blatant or discrete, bullying can make you feel different, excluded and alone. Your feelings are shared and understood. Remember, bullies aren’t the boss. What bullies say or do will never reflect your worth in life, who you really are and your potential to succeed.

The victims of bullying come from all walks of life, from every school, playground, workplace and online platform. You may be sceptical about whether helpline support in Northern Ireland will work for you, especially if you have been treated badly in the past. The good news is that helpline staff are well-trained to help people with experiences like yours.
