Hi luna! First of all I wanted to thank you for all your help and support these past few months. My question is how do I deal with mean people or ones who are annoying? My instinct is to yell at their face, but that sounds wrong. I hate talking to people about it as rumours spread and teachers can’t help much. What do I do? πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›

Hey, thanks for writing in, luna's SO happy to hear that this platform has been helping you out πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›

Dealing with mean or annoying people can be tough, but you are right to think yelling isn't the best approach.

Instead, try staying calm and confident. Don't let their words or actions get to you.

Surround yourself with supportive friends who lift you up. If rumours spread, focus on your true friends who know the real you.

Teachers can be a resource too, so don't hesitate to reach out if things get out of hand.

There's more advice in the Learn section of luna too, hope this helps 🌟
