Some people do eventually get through their trouble times of our lives and become someone better. Everyone is capable of overcoming struggles both big and small. Like they say “you need to have bad days to know the good ones”. Sometimes people enjoy seeing other people go through the breakdowns and the entertainment from it. Britney Spears breakdown in 2007 was one that everyone, everywhere knows about. She went through a huge breakdown that was in the spotlight and everyone was able to criticize her and hate her. This can many times even lead someone farther into their breakdown, but sometimes you just have to ignore it, deal with it and get passed it. Britney is eventually taken to many rehab centers, get help and becomes stable. So, go ahead …show more content…
As a, kid I was bullied in and outside of school, which wasn't very fun. People used to call me very unpleasant names, made fun of my native language, where I was from and just out of no reason bully me. The bully went on for about two years, but I always remember my mother saying to ignore what people had to say because if you did pay attention to what they said, you were giving them exactly what they wanted. All the things people use to say to me would affect me and how I felt about the place I lived. This leads me to not want to go to school or even leave my room. With the help of my parents, motivation and positive thinking I was able to ignore the people that bullied me. Eventually the people that bullied me saw that their words no longer had any affected on me, so they stopped bullying me. This just comes to show that with positive thinking can help overcome bad days to get to the good
Life can always change direction. We can have certain obstacles that challenge us. Sometimes this makes us stronger and we can always learn through these times. We always have
Have you or someone you know been bullied? Your answer is probably yes. So was Jodee Blanco, the author of Please Stop Laughing At Me… One Woman’s Emotional Story. Starting in 5th grade up until high school graduation, she was tormented by her classmates, getting little or no help from authority. Even her parents began to believe it was her fault. She understands what it feels like to be bullied and wrote the book as something other victims can relate to. She also wrote it to show people how bad bullying really is and get them to understand that it shouldn’t be dismissed as a normal part of growing up and allowed to happen. Something should be done to prevent kids from going through this. That is her main point in this book. The main idea of this book is Ms. Blanco sharing her experiences experiences of being bullied through much of her adolescent life to show people the horrors of bullying and that it shouldn't be allowed to continue.
Everyone has difficult obstacles in their lives. I have had a few myself and they each have changed me for the better. My most profound experience was being repeatedly molested as a child. I wasn't aware of exactly what was happening to me. I didn't know being touched was wrong. I just knew how disgusting it made me feel, but I didn't tell anyone at the time. I shared this publicly as an adult to help other parents realize that children need to be protected. It was a long journey to reach to the point where I could speak about my experiences with anyone. These experiences from my childhood affected me deeply; however, I have overcome them, learned from them and I have contributed at a higher level because of them.
Most people throughout their life go through depression a couple times. It seems to be almost unavoidable unless you take antidepressants or have a very good religious life. As the author Mary Shelly stated, "Life is obstinate and clings closest where it is most hated. " I think that this means that when we are feeling the worst in our lives in when we become the strongest, we have to push though those terrible times to see the bright
As a consequence of constantly being bullied in Middle School and then High School, I am still depressed today. People who were never victims of bullying do not understand how this can be traumatizing for a person years later. For me, past childhood trauma still affects my everyday life. It is hard for me to
I think the hard times for my family were went away. I would talk with my mother about the past hard time recently, I asked her why she never said gave up or complained with her children. My mother said if you trust yourself that you can went through all of the obstacles then you can receive success, but if you don’t trust yourself, you only received nothing. I think that is the resilience in my life: never say give up, and Gods helps those that help themselves.
I have selected Britney Spears as my subject for the reason that I realize that she has been through so much in her life and has a tendency to convey her emotions radically and live life on the edge most of the times. Moreover, I find it simply fascinating to scrutinize Britney Spears’ personality by means of the Psychoanalysis so as to offer deeper comprehension in investigating her personality. Even though this process of personality analysis is hardly ever employed today due to a deficiency of empirical verification and a disappointment to deal with any adulthood impact on personality, the approach’s stress on childhood development is a long way from without foundation. It permits for a fascinating and vibrant examination of personality as it imparts a comprehensive description of why Britney’s id conquers her ego and superego in a majority of her decisions, as well as reciting her fixations within the oral stage of the psychosexual development. By exploring her defense mechanisms, from a spectator’s view it is apparent that she stays clear of anxiety-provoking stimuli by means of warping reality to her own terms. Taken as a whole, this assessment of Britney Spears’s personality does an excellent work via the psychoanalytic perspective as means to reveal/display a lucid conception of her outlook on the world and the connections with her relationships as to why she is this way at the moment.
Life is a constant evolution. Everyone has problems and everyone goes through things, including me. No one is perfect and life definitely is not easy. I have experienced everything from my grandma being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, losing our house, and connecting with an absent father. I even struggled with anxiety and depression. It has really been a wild journey and now, I’m finally ready to share my views on this roller coaster that I have been on.
In life we all go through certain situations that we let our impulses take over. We are humans and we make mistakes and that helps us grow and become better human beings. As we all age, maturity and wisdom is gained through all experiences. We are all required to deal with the realities of the real world and learn how to handle the responsibilities that are given to us. Life is full of various difficulties but it always gets better. The majority of times we don’t like our lives, jobs etc.. All we can do is try to get better and find ways we can change our current life and reach our goals.
In today’s society, we all need just a little push and that may come from parents, friends, or bullies. This push is necessary in order to mentally prepare children and teenagers alike for the world which is full of mean and disrespectful people. This world has no place for those who have a weak mind or cannot muster up the strength to assert their will. When I say that people need a push, I do not necessarily mean a positive one. When people think of bullying in a modern context they think of a group of children surrounding a single child throwing insult after insult while getting physically abused. Once people see this image in their mind they think of it as nothing but negativity and fail to see it in a positive light and that is the simple fact that getting bullied is merely a form of constructive criticism which is necessary evil in terms of building character.
Everyone has been bullied or encountered someone being bullied at some point of their life. Whether it would be physically or verbally both can be exceedingly traumatizing and can have a long-term psychological influence on children’s development. Majority people may define bullying in a more physical term; nevertheless that’s not always the case. The act of bullying can occur in several ways and in reality affect the individual in the same way. Bullying is generally defined as repeated, negative, and harmful actions focused at target throughout a course of time, exhibiting a sense of power difference between the bully and the victim (Olweus, 1993; Limber & Mihalic, 1999 as cited from Douglas J. Boyle, 2005). A survey was conducted in the United States estimating that over six million children, about 30% in grade six through ten have experienced frequent bullying in a school environment (Nansel, 2001 as cited from Douglas J. Boyle, 2005). Many people might debate that bullying is something that every child goes through and is simply a part of growing up, although there are several damaging consequences that happens to the child’s brain. Bullying causes the child to feel upset, isolated, frightened, anxious, and depressed. They feel like they reason they are being picked on is because there is something wrong with them and may even lose their confidence feel unsafe going to school (Frenette, 2013 as cited from Douglas J. Boyle, 2005) Anthropologically, sociologically, or psychologically, bullying can be analyzed through different perspectives and several questions can be asked based on the topic:
Bullying has been around for decades and yet it is still a reoccurring problem, and it is only getting worse. The National Center for Educational Statistics, in 2009, said nearly 1 in 3 students between the ages of 12 and 18 reported being bullied in school. Eight years earlier, only 14 percent of that population said they had experienced bullying(Ollove,2014). There are two types of bullying the direct form and indirect form, in the direct form the victim receives physical harm example kicking pushing shoving. In the indirect form the victim receives emotional or mental harm by name-calling, rejection, gossip, threats, or insults(Green,2007). It doesn’t matter which way the victim was bullied it still causes
Bullying is a major issue in schools and is a factor in fitting in. Almost all students in high school either have been bullied or have bullied someone. Bullying can be split into two major parts: psychological and physical. While both are very harmful, many debates have been had as to which is worse. I am of the opinion that psychological is worse, because it can really push somebody over the edge. When people constantly harass you or call you names it starts to take a toll on your confidence and self-esteem, and as is said in the poem “To This Day”, it “Seems like every school has...
I have been bullied all my life, I just took it from kids, clearly I did not have a backbone. For each school I attended, I was always the easy target. I let kids tease me, talk behind my back, and call me names. It seemed like it didn’t matter if I told my parents or someone at school, nothing changed. I never really felt that I could tell someone and have things be different. Due to all the teasing, I would often become distracted and lose focus on my assignments. It got worse each year to the point where half the time I would just be in my own little world to get away from the teasing.
With God, anyone can deal with anything. He gives us challenges for a reason. When people take on these challenges, they become stronger and are able to deal with more of life's challenges that will come in the coming years. There is a reason for everything.
