People are leaving me out or turning against me
Being deliberately excluded, ignored or having other people turned against you can hurt just as much as other forms of bullying. You don’t have to cope with it alone.
What to do now
- Tell an adult you trust what has been happening.
- Explain whether it keeps happening and who is involved.
- Keep messages or screenshots if people are targeting you online or in group chats.
- Don’t retaliate or try to get other people to take sides.
If you feel frightened or think someone might hurt you, get help from an adult straight away.
