I know I won't be loved for saying that, but while you're seeing yourself as a victim, you'll never fix your problem...
Of course it's hard to change "roles" now that everybody is used with this situation, but the fact is: since the beggining you accepted the bullying. If you had refused to be bullied and faced the bullies right away, they would have stopped, but you decided to play the victim role.
I don't think homeschooling is the right option. Run away from the battle is what cowards do, but maybe you're too young and naive to realize that... As everybody is saying the bullying will stop as you grow up but the way you feel about dominant and confident people won't.
This is the time for you to learn how to deal with this kind of people because they will always be there somehow in your life. Maybe it will be your husband, your boss, co-workers, etc. If you don't develop the skills now, you'll never be confident enough to be successful in your life, and this is the bottom-line... Confidence is one of the most important skills one can learn in order to be successful not only in the professional life but also in the personal life.
I'm sorry if was kind of rude, my intention was to help,

i disagree with much of your post.. esp. you saying that depressed diva "sees herself as a victim" and "since the beginning she accepted the bullying"..that's ludicrous. She was thrust into the role of victim the minute the assholes started bullying her. And, just because she felt alone and defenceless..doesn't mean she accepted it
those who bullied you are just assholes. i feel sorry for you. in the past i was bullied too but not severely but i still remember that. i quit school because of that. i wish there is homeschooling but i dont know where to find one. and i dont know if they have it or not. in 7 days i will be back to school and i hope they wont do anything bad to me or i will kick their asses this time. i became violent because of it.
I home schooled Mike for a few years due to bullying issues and we had an awful lot of fun. It's a great option if you want to do your own thang (and show 'em all that school isnt as good as a kids own appetite for new info is)
