Advice

Being victim of verbal bullying is very hard.  Even though it takes a lot of courage, here are useful advice that may help the victims to deal with verbal bullying.

The victim should ignore the bully and stay calm because if the victim isn't reponsive, the bully will lose interest and will probably stop bullying. 

It could also be a relief and make things easier if the victim tells an authority figure about the problem and asks for help. 

The victim should also focus on his or her faithful friends to have some positive influences.  A victim who's surrounded by friends can bring verbal bullying to an end.

Finally, looking for other sources of pleasure such as hobbies, fun activities and interests can help the victim to think about positive things and to stop thinking about the bad things he or she went through.
