Bullying causes great, often irreparable damage to victims. Since they are usually young, they have worse coping mechanisms, which may increase their risk of committing suicide. Victims often suffer from depression, diminished self-worth, impaired academic performance and social relationships people might avoid them due to associated stigma. There are multiple bullying forms through which all this damage is impaired and each needs adequate consideration.


One common form of bullying is causing physical harm. While severe injuries might be quickly discovered and lead to quick intervention from adults, minor physical abuse is frequent. Still very damaging for the psychological wellbeing of the victim because of suffered humiliation, often in public, in particular, if this occurs repeatedly as is often the case.  


Verbal blustering involves insults, threats or might happen by itself or might accompany physical abuse, this could include name-calling, humiliating remarks in public. Threats deserve separate mention given that they are often very serious, for instance, killing threats. Given the extent of school shooting across the US, this gains even more weight.


Abuse occurs in person but also through text messages, social media, or other online means (cyberbullying), which gained in our technological society. According to stopbulying.gov, 9% of students from grades 6-12 grade have encountered it, 15% of students in 9-12 grades have experienced it in the last year alone. When it comes to minorities, this is even worse, with about 55% of LGBTQ students have experienced this.


When considering other types, it is useful to classify them by the triggering/ risk factors, such as being less physically strong than aggressor, often, because younger, belonging to a lower social class, having an academic performance that is noticeably lower or higher than average, being a member of minority group (sexual minority, religious minority) in which case it’s discrimination form. Everyone is at risk who differs from their peers through appearance, behavior, etc.


To conclude, bullying may be very different by nature and effective coping with all these types requires thorough understanding. For instance, cyberbullying functions in accordance with entirely different rules compared to real-life blustering. It is also important to know the extent or relative gravity of all these types to prioritize actions.
