>>1Yes, pretty badly.
I was always a shy guy, not into sports, a few pounds too much, nerdy, no self esteem at all. It was mostly because my family was completely dysfunctional and my Dad a complete sociopath who used his kids to hurt his ex-wife as much as possible. He made a total wreck out of my Mum which is why she wasn't of any help either.
Additionally, I had the bad luck to get thrown into the same class as this one dude that just loved to bully. He never attacked me physically (he was a weak midget himself for most of high school and too smart to beat others), but he constantly attacked me with words. He found out the nastiest details and stories about my family, he knew I didn't have any money, he always made fun of me when I was doing badly at sports or whatever he could pick on. Needless to say, I was constantly anxious while around him - the fear of being awkward or making a mistake just lead to me being totally awkward and fucking up.
The abuse got a little less over the years and I tried so hard to somehow impress him or get his approval at least once. That too he used to his advantage when he wanted me to help him with some school stuff (he too was a very good student). I always obliged, never had the guts to stand up to him...I never got any form of approval or the least bit of respect from him, he always looked down on me and it took me years away from him to build some self esteem and find some happiness because I always feared to be judged by my peers.
