Bullying and the different types of bullying

November each year sees a whole week in the mental health calendar dedicated to helping understand, stop and provide support around the issue of bullying. So many people are affected by bullying behaviours and the impact on the sufferer can be severe and long lasting. Often depression, anxiety, together with a whole range of other concerns can be traced back in part to the experiences of bullying. 

Understanding bullying is an important first step in being able to recognise it and in the run up to Anti-Bullying week. For this first blog post we are writing about the different types of bullying and we will follow up with further blog posts on bullying and the law, contemporary forms of bullying and finally how to stop bullying and how to recover from being bullied.
