Readers,
If you are interested in this blog, and you have something to add, then I am interested in your story.
Perhaps any of you have been through it also - for various reasons: perhaps you were overweight, maybe you had a learning disability, a physical disability, some other medical condition, are of a minority group, or your sexuality is different from others. Or maybe you belong to some alternative subculture, where you don't confrom to the majority of people. Or perhaps you don't play sport. Whatever the reason yourself, I am interested in your anecdotes.
Alternatively, you might know someone who has been bullied and the reasons for sticking up for them are many: perhaps they are your child, your sibling, your parent (or grandparent) or other relative; perhaps you knew them at school, or in the workplace; or maybe you knew them from school, college or work; or you have some professional interest in them (eg you are a social worker, a teacher, a psychologist, doctor, nurse etc).
Whatever the case may be, your stories are important to myself and any co-authors that may wish to join me.
cheers,
Night Owl

I have recently written a memoir and believe it is important to share our stories about abuse and how we are effected. Here is a preview of my story.
ReplyDelete“Why Don’t You Like Me, Daddy?” is a courageous story about the cause and effects of physical and verbal child abuse. The cause is most likely from bipolar disorder; The Effects are explained by the author and the many behaviors that lead up to his diagnoses.
Stereotyping mental illness is bullying in the authors opinion. His hope is if you ever need someone to talk to that you seek some consultation. Consultation can be very healthy in any situation, friend, colleague, professional, but you should never be afraid to express how you are feeling.
The Author’s father had proud moments of him throughout his life but his father never liked him and he will never know why. So how do you deal with that? The author explains how he is dealing with that.
It is the authors hope that if you are bipolar or have PTSD that you stay on your medication until you are better. If you know someone that has experienced these situations it is hoped that you will understand them a little better.
Thank you, Carl; I will have to look out for this book :)
