The stalkers were a group of middle-school girls. Starting out as an attempt to separate them from their mutual friend, the group quickly turned to persistent aggression, deliberately targeting Claire.
Claire endured a variety of harassments, ranging from insults to defamatory rumors. These behaviors evolved into violent physical acts, such as the destruction of her personal belongings and even a physical assault by a boy that resulted in a fractured coccyx.
The consequences for Claire were profound. She developed emotional isolation, avoiding the paths frequented by her harassers to return home. These actions had psychological repercussions, leading to a loss of appetite and difficulty eating. Claire also felt the need to hide, to become “transparent”, using her body as a silent means of communication in the face of her inability to express herself verbally.
For Marie, bullying was carried out by the whole class. After moving house several times, she had trouble finding her place among her peers in elementary school and junior high. The whole class rallied against her, making her vulnerable to the cruel acts she was subjected to.
Marie was confronted with various forms of bullying, ranging from teasing to theft of personal belongings. Humiliating acts, such as the theft of her shoes during a fire alarm drill, have marked her journey.
The impact on Marie was significant, leaving emotional scars that have persisted over the years. She had difficulty identifying these experiences as bullying until recently, underlining the persistence of trauma even after a prolonged period. Memories of public humiliation and loss of personal possessions have left lasting marks on her emotional well-being.
