Tell Someone -The first tip is the most important one. You must tell someone you trust, such as your Mum/Dad, Brothers/Sisters, Grandparents, Aunts/Uncles, Teachers, in fact anyone you trust, the important thing is you tell someone, it will start the cycle of change, and make you feel a lot better instantly, as is often said 'a problem shared is a problem halved'.
	Write it down - Write down exactly what happens, try using that diary you never use, or even the computer (they can be used for things other than games - lol), it really doesn't matter what you use but sometimes just writing things down helps make things seem clearer to understand and often solutions to problems appear out of nowhere, all because you can think clearly. You can also show your diary of whats happened to people who you trust, this often helps a great deal at the point of telling someone as emotions are high.
	This is one for the bullies - can't you see how much, what you do affects people, people like me and millions of others all around the world, people who's lives are like a living hell every single day. The fact that you are reading this proves you care enough to think about whoever you are bullying. You have to STOP IT! Ask yourself this is he/she really that different from you? How would you feel if that was you?
	Witness to or knowledgable to the fact - If you witnessed something or know about someone who's being victimised your just as big a part of this whole bullying thing as the bully/bullies themselves, if you done nothing about it, just being in a crowd or laughing often fuels the bully/bullies to go further (basically they 'show-off' to the crowd). We all have an obligation to help - a moral obligation!
	Strength in numbers - If you are not the only person getting bullied by the same person or group of people. Make contact with them and explain that the same thing is happening to you by the same person, you may find that one bully is victimising many, many people at the same time. Just imagine the shock on the bullies faces if the next time they tried to bully you there was twenty others just like you standing with you. Bully's prefer odds like 3 against 1, not 3 against 20. There is strength in numbers!
	Try to avoid being in situations on your own, having a friend or relative with you will help, their is always strength in numbers (as stated above). Often bullies look at people on there own as easy targets. Places like toilets at schools, bike sheds/racks, journeys to and from school/work, etc. being on your own and should be avoided.
	Look for the ringleader (if you are being bullied by more than one person) - in a lot of bullying situations there is someone who is looked-up too for whatever reason, perhaps he/she is bigger than the others or a better fighter perhaps, regardless of why they are looked-up-to they are. Try and talk to that person preferably when they are on there own, ask them 'why are you doing this to me?' And explain just how much there actions are hurting you.
	Remember this is NOT your fault, you are a victim, no matter how many names or how the situation becomes twisted you do NOT deserve this, and you should never accept this as part of growing up, because it isn't part of growing up you are a victim of bullying!
	Never give up - no matter how bad things appear there are always solutions to problems, the trick is to find the right solution at the right time, you may have to try several different approaches, one will work in the end. But never ever give up because if you give up then the bully wins.
	Do NOT fight back - Fighting back in the physical sense will more often than not lead to an increase in the bullying, plus the bully is controlling the situation after all was it not them that came looking for the confrontation in the first place? Wars start and people die by fighting back, and seldom does the situation ever go away.
	Self-Confidence - A lot of people that are being bullied or have been in the past have had their self-confidence all but destroyed. Take things easy, it will take time. Why not take up a martial art. There are many to choose from, and they all will build self-confidence. Click here to view a list of many of the clubs in the UK.
