ever since i was really young, my siter has harrassed, assaulted and degraded me.
shes tried to drown me before, caused me to sink into horrible fits of depressioneating, and has had the cops called on us before due to her attacking me.

ive also been made fun of at school for a while.
thank god i eventually started to fade in the background and no one
except my circle of friends really notice me.

so im asking yall, did you have to put up with physical or verbal abuse at home or school?

yea thats what made me hate humans, but theres a load of other reasons too nowdays to hate them

i used to sit next to assholes who punch you in the school lessons or steal stuff from you and throw it around or just use it themselves and never give it back. i was also backstabbed by people when they found out i was in love with a girl so they always made fun of me and her for we would never couple up - and they were pretty successfull with that. i was also embarrassed in public many times by thoose people - 3 guys retaining me while another one stole my pants in mid school and stuff like that. thinking of it now makes me really angry id like to visit the assholes with a bat and break their fuckin hands until they are unable to use them ever again...

I didn't. I was similar age to my brother and sister and even though the youngest I was the tallest of all three. I was mean to my sister for a while but never physically abusive. I had a horribly inflated ego and would tease her because I thought she wasn't very clever, which is just one of the things I'm not proud of myself for. I don't think she ever felt victimised however, siblings bicker and try to undermine each other and all sorts of other things. My brother was someone I shared almost every moment with growing up but on some days I'd come across with a perversity and by temper or just a pure flippancy would do things like, throw a rock in his direction, thinking to make it land close enough to scare him but instead striking him with it on the back of his head causing it to bleed out. Though I say that, it isn't as though he didn't cause me enough harm on some occassions too, there was just never any malicious motivation behind it; things are very likely different between brothers than sisters though.

It sounds like you are really bothered by the situation with your sister. I'm sorry I don't know what to suggest you might do. Besides speaking with her about it and your parents, which, who knows, might even increase her hosility towards you.

My brother was a bastard to me growing up and has physically assaulted me a few times. He was always much bigger than me, he's nearly 6ft and I'm 5'5. I don't hold it against him as it didn't happen frequently, but he has really hurt me before.

I was teased and verbally abused at school, but I can't recall much physical bullying.

At school, yes.

Nah.

Not really. Had the odd bit of intimidation and threats, but can't say I was ever abused.

yeah, i was sexually and physically abused from age 4-11 by my stepfather. in my adult years i have been frequently emotionally and physically abused by partners, employers and my estranged family. i can't really imagine a life where people treat me fairly.

yes. i was physically and verbally abused by my parents when i wasn't being neglected. i was bullied in grade school by other students but that pales in comparison to what i had to put up with at home. this is a large part of why i prefer to be alone i think.

I talked about some of my experiences in school here some time ago: http://hikiculture.net/post11775.html#p11775

i say this out of curiousity, what drove you to do that?
if she was dumber than you, it couldnt be out of jealousy.
what did you gain from it?

I'm not sure. I barely remember the person I was when I was that young but I figure it was partly boredom, partly an unjust sense of superiority, partly because I could and it was gratifying to. Maybe there was elements of jealousy but I can't ever remember coveting anything she had. Ironically I'm closer to her than either my mother or brother now.

Yes.

When I was a child, my father abused me physically. In school, I was bullied incessantly. Instead of going to going to high school, I lived on the streets and made my living as an adolescent male prostitute. Needless to say, abuse is an everyday matter for a fourteen-year-old male prostitute. So, yeah, up until my early twenties I experienced a lot of violence and sexual abuse. In my early twenties, I withdrew completely from interpersonal realtionships and thereby made certain that I'd never experience abuse again.

Never at home.

Bullied from the age of nine. Verbal, physical and sexual. Sexual abuse at age 10 (from a non-related adult).
Good at waking the worst in some types of people even if they don't know me.

Yes, lots of verbal and emotional abuse. From about 5-15.

my father hit me numerous times (usually while being drunk) when i was 8(?)?-16 yrs old, sometimes just some slaps on the face, sometimes coming in my room in the middle of the night and violently hitting me in the stomach and on the back. sometimes he didnt remember the next day, sometimes he would say that he had to do because of my behavior and me failing in school etc.. he cant articulate himself while being drunk only fragments of bullshit like "you wouldnt be born if i wouldnt be alive etc." and no other justifications, like the usual horible father-hits-son- cliché-talk. at the times he didnt remember he'd eventually apologize and promise to drink in a more moderate way, but he's unable to do so until this very day, although he keeps on promising. he doesnt hit me anymore (maybe because hes aware of the fact that i would hit back and or tell his girlfriend, like i did before, (who doesnt live with us i may add and he only sees her outide the house ) but nonsense-blabbering and kitchen-messig-up-shit (which has become less frequent over the past one year i have to say for his defense) is still something i have to endure every once in a while (not everyday but as long as he doesnt go in my room and annoys me, i dont care if he drinks or not)

i've never really been bullied in school, im happy to say.

Like a lot of people I got a lot of shit from other kids throughout school. Never really physical abuse but plenty of verbal abuse.

I could have and should have stood up for myself more but I always thought if I was just nice to people they'd be nice to me in return... which I learned was no where near being true.

I was going to write almost the exact same thing.Its sad reading some of these posts,it makes me feel lucky.
At school everyone treated me with contempt,they would make me feel physically and mentally inferior beyond comparison to anything in merit.
At home my mothers boyfriend would often bully me.I rarely got touched by anyone though,in that sense I'm lucky...

Yes. While I was very young and when my father and I were the only ones in the house, he would convince me to get naked and lie down while he fapped onto my chest. I asked him what the stuff was and he said "It's nothing just lay there." After a while I realized I didn't want that but I was too afraid and too ignorant to tell anyone so whenever my sister and mom left I hung out outside. my dad even tried several times to convince me to come into the house but I never did. After a while When I became older (Old enough to have memory is probably what he was thinking) he stopped.

What's your relationship with your father like now?

I had the same question as Suedehead.

I'm sorry you had to go through something like that though Colin, I can only imagine it confused you and made you mistrustful.

Yeah, "turn the other cheek"-my ass. I've learned that we teach people how to treat us. If a person has no respect for themselves, it's unlikely others will have respect for the respective person. Sad but so often true.

I stood up for myself and it resulted in complete alienation. People resorted to talking bad behind my back.

I was shaped by my experiences and through them mastered the art of the pre-emptive strike. To me, people are guilty until proven otherwise. At the slightest provocation I will bring out the nukes.
