I was bullied at my first secondary school. My sister and I, being twins, were at the same primary school, in the same class and she stuck up for me a lot. I was very lucky. It all changed at secondary school. I was horrendously psychologocially bullied, to the point I could not take it any more and moved schools. I got on much better at my new school and I believe, to this day if i had remained at that school I would never have got as far as i have today. Sometimes things happen for mysterious reasons- this, although terrible for me, worked out for the best! Thanks for all your help the other day tom- you are a star!
