Bullying and Mental Health
In Nigerian Schools
Students face unique challenges at school which could affect them adversely if not attended to.
Every student needs guidance and someone to talk to at different points in their lives and academic career.
Student wellness is as important as ever because of the times we are currently in, Anxiety, fear of the unknown, What to do after school are part of the typical challenges most students face in school and after leaving school.
Catering for their Well-being is a great way to minimize and manage situations like this.
One common problem faced a lot by Nigerian Students is Bullying: Bullying is a situation that is characterized by intentional verbal or physical abuse, use of force, coercion, hurtful teasing or threat, to abuse, aggressively dominate or intimidate usually from one student or more against one or more of their peers.
Bullying has far-reaching effects on both the bullies and the student being bullied.
Research suggests that students who bully are more likely to engage in violent behaviour, steal or vandalize property, smoke, drink, report poor grades, and carry a gun.
Continued Bullying on Students can have a psychological effect on those being bullied which could lead to low self-esteem, depression, suicidal thoughts among others.
