My daughter suffers from several mental diagnoses and I suffer from depression. My daughter has been bullied so bad in school and I am running out of options on what to do. I have went to the school so many times about this....my daughter has been on meds, she has seen several therapists, and has been admitted into an inpatient facility before. What can I do to prevent my daughter from being bullied anymore

It think it depends on what she is being bullied about. Is moving schools an option? What are the school doing about it? They have a responsibility to control their students.

I think teaching her tools to handle it is important. Bullies target those that they see a reaction out of so I am sure the more they bully her the more reaction they get from her and then they continue to bully her more... it’s a vicious cycle.

Talk to her about options of where to go at school, what to do. And how to emotionally equip herself.

And a BIG ONE... get her OFF social media (if she’s on it :)
