Dear Matchy - hi Neerja and hi Fifi

Thankyou for thinking of me as a friend too. It means a lot to me.

It's not right that you had to change schools then it got worse in high school and the bullies weren't pulled into line. Is this the stuff you think about all the time?

When I was really depressed, struggling with poverty in a very abusive relationship, I never did anything nice for myself like listen to music. I was deprived of everything.

I think your kids would enjoy some really cool music you used to listen to, mine do and know lots of the words now. I listen to some of their "cool music" too and even like a few songs lol!
Movement by Hozier is amazing and the dance clip is incredible. Have you heard that one?

What was one of your favourite songs back in the olden days lol?

Hi Matchy69,

I am really sorry you went through so much bullying in primary school. It's really not fair how badly people treat each other. I am really sorry that you had to change schools because of it. You didn't deserve any of what happened to you.

I hope you listen to more music. Music is like a powerful and calm language that we all understand, with many varieties that tailor each person's unique choices.

I hope you feel better soon 🙂

We are all would like to be your friends.

Warm wishes,

Neerja

Hi Neerja thanks for your kind words and support,it means a lot to me.I would go to the teacher in tears and tell her i was being teased and she would say just ignore them.Unfortunately i couldnt do that.The schools seem to be so much better today trying to stamp out bullying but unfortunately it still goes on in schools.

Hi Matchy69,

Ignoring is really hard. That's what my teachers would tell me too. My old school was really bad and unhelpful at handling bullying situations but the school I am currently in, is a bit better. I am going to year 10 next year, I am scared of changing school again.

I am really sorry again that you went through so much in school and that your teachers weren't action-taking or helpful. It's really not fair.

You do so many things, look after your kids, gardening, listening to music, motorbike riding and I bet there is lots more! You are an amazing person and you didn't deserve any of what happened to you in school.

I hope you have a good day.

Warm wishes,

Neerja

Thank you Matchy69 for your kind words too 🙂

It's so disgusting how people treat each other. I am really sorry that you went through so much and school years weren't the best years.

How has your day been today?

MrAnxiety I often need someone to talk to as I’m borderline and and not many people understand how to deal with people with mental health issues
