Social isolation/ Seclusion |
Well...I don’t like boys in general, nor girls as they are...I simply don’t talk much with my classmates and I spend my classes without saying anything until break time is over and I’m with my partner, so...I have no problem (C6). |
Yes, now they opens up a lot more than before. Some time ago he didn’t use to tell me anything. He didn’t have many friends either, so he didn’t have much to tell, or things that had happened at school, or anything (M6). |
Violent behaviour |
She used to hit when they picked on her, because that was an application that she downloaded and there she could have all her class, and others, acquaintances and friends, they told her on it what they didn’t dare to say to her face as she could hit them, because before that was the way she defended herself, hitting, the point was she became a though person, and that’s why now nobody picks on her, because her way is, if you say this to me I’ll hit you (M10). |
And I got angry very quickly and the first thing I used to do was punching |
the wall, that’s what I used to do (C4). |
There was even once, when she apparently got very angry... there was an injury to a teacher, who tried to separate them (M4). |
Depression |
I remember once... I was going out with a guy, just before I realised I was trans, and I told him about, and well, he left me because... he supposedly liked girls, and I was kind of depressed, I thought people didn’t like me if I wasn’t... as I should be, like a girl (C5). |
Two years ago, when I said I wanted to be... trans, that I was trans, at that time I was diagnosed with depression, and that came together with the change of gender. And then... it kind of lowered my mood a lot (C10). |
Autolytic attempts |
Apart from that, she has tried twice to commit suicide, taking pills. And then I was very worried, we had to keep medication stored... Well, what happened is that she took many pills twice, in the morning before going to school. Then, of course, the effect occurred there, she started vomiting, she fainted, they had to call an ambulance, and then they called me and the second time exactly the same thing because she had argued with the boy she liked and then, of course, they keep an eye on her (M5). |
He took a blister pack of ibuprofen, it was an autolytic attempt, it was related to when they picked on him outside school (M7). |
