Question

what are the consequences of verbal pressure adn physical pressure?? besides the person losing self-esteem??

Answer 1

Because both people lose in the end. The bully becomes an adult with problems where he/she can't solve problems without harassing someone else. The person bullied grows up with self esteem issues.

Answer 2

I once read somewhere that the best way to deal with a bully is to bully him the way he bullies you. In other words give him his own medicine.
Easily said than done.

It needs a lot of courage and guts.
I think, geographically, the element of bullying is at its minimal in the U.S. In America, even as kids, poeple start to identify a bully, and devise their own defense mechanisms to deal with it.
I have noticed that you need to be able to ignore a bully for a large part but once he corners you unjustified you need to act like a tiger, and let the bully know what you have.
It is much easier to deal with a bully that is outside your household. If the bully is inside your household, you have better chances of survival if you have some indispensable skills, i.e., you are a doctor, or know a lot about fixing a car, or make good money, or have a multitude of talents that can come handy anytime. Then you can also give him a run for his money.
The thing to remember in a domestic situation of bullying is that you have to know where the line is between slavery and respect. Most domestic bullies slave you in the name of respect. It is all the more helpful if you yourself are able to identify the element of bullying itself. And that's the first step in countering the element of bullying. Only when you understand that you are being bullied can you do anything about it. And the first thing you can then do about bullying is to control your anger. The greatest weapon of a bully is not something he has but something you have, and that is your anger. As soon as you allow yourself to get angry, you lose a control over your behaviour, your thoughts, your ideas. And all in all your whole situation. A lot of times when you are angry you misinterpret a situation, or you overreact just to emphasize your proint, but it all goes right against you. The bully latches on to that response of yours and keeps proving to you how wrong you always are.
I think I can give you a couple of more lessons about the bullyish behaviour, especially on the precise situation that you are in. If you need more thoughts and ideas on this you are free to contact me anytime on my email.
Best of luck.
My heart goes out to all the oppressed and the bullied.
