466). However, what if early childhood trauma changes the neurological connections making one at a higher risk of panic attacks later in life? As a child Virginia was molested, and this type of “trauma results in hippocampal impairment, which decreases our ability to regulate and inhibit emotions” (Cozolino, 2017c, pp. 296) and can disrupt normal brain development leading to the deficits in motor, emotional, behavioral, language, psychosocial, social, and cognitive skills (De Bellis, 2001), as well as, a diminished corpus callosum size inhibiting the left and right hemisphere of the brain from communicating effectively. Moreover, researchers De Bellis and Thomas (2003) found evidence which suggests these deficits persist into adulthood and are accompanied by neurobiological stress response dysregulation that is hypersensitive or hyper-reactive. For instance, when Virginia’s husband had a stroke her role changed and so did her stress level.

According to www.bullyingstatistics.org, text bullying can be much meaner because the suspect can text whatever they want because they don’t have to see their victims. Also, "Text Bullying" states that it can happen 24 hours a day, even at home, which is usually a refuge of bullying, so to the victim it will feel inescapable. According to Source 1, students get bullied because they are having a rough time at home. Students may become a bully because they have been bullied in the past. People also become a bully because they want to hurt someone and they think they are bigger, stronger, smarter, and they think they can overpower that person. Being a bully is worse than a bystander because they would get the blame for suicide, lose trust in their amazing friends and loving and caring family, they would have an abundant amount of guilt, and they would be the main cause of all that happened to that person.
The article “Dealing with Bullies in Marriage -- And Divorce,” by Beth Kramer, is an examination of the often looked over topic of relationships with bullies. Beginning her article, Kramer illustrates ways one might identify bullying behaviour and the surface psychological characteristics that a bully might possess: however, Kramer’s main objective is detailing several options a spouse might take if one were to find him/herself in such a circumstance.

I was a bully. In fifth grade I bullied not only people I didn’t like but also my “friends”. Reflecting back on this time, I did not know then that I was a bully. I did not know I was doing something wrong. Reflecting back, I wonder how did this happen? Why did I feel the need to bully? I was a bully and then one day, I wasn’t anymore. What caused this change to occur internally? I look back to a hazy past and put myself back into the mind of an Alanys that lived fourteen years ago.
