We all had/have bullies.
The question is how do we get ourselves up from the dirt?
These people are forever in our memories and forgetting them, no matter how intense our desire, is just difficult.
Could you suggest ways on forgetting them and starting life clean again?

By purchasing Taylor Swift's 'Clean' on iTunes.
OT: Aww I'm really sad for you that you've went through a bad time, the only thing that could probably take your mind off it is by being with good company a lot and doing things which occupy you. If you're occupied all the time, then you won't really have much time to think about the bad memories and bullying.
I don't recommend being alone for long periods of time because it gives you the opportunity to think about the bad moments life.
If you do loads of cool stuff with people you love (assuming you can), then whenever you're alone you'll probably be thinking more about the happy/funny times and the bullying days will be at the back of your head
Good luck, I really hope you can overcome this

I already have
You're so right. I spend most of my time alone nowadays 'cause it's vacay time here, and you know the monsters began their return.
I wasn't physically harrassed, but verbally. These people exaggerated everything I do and always framed me as an evil person.
You know that haunting feeling of hurt because person A,B,C still haven't moved on and continue stabbing you in twitter.
I choose not to fight and just recently, deleted my account.
Anyway, I listened to Clean a while ago.
I cried.
And seriously speaking, I felt clean.
It's not much. But it's a stepping stone.
Thank you, Saintlor.
I would surround myself with people like you.

I'm a student.
And they bully me at school. Tell me I'm ugly, I'm a cheater, I'm all the filth in this world.
I am not a 'serious cheater' . I do this occasional homework copy and stuffs but everyone does that and these 'people' make it out like I'm the most cruel and am the only cheater in the world.
Actually, they are the ones that cling to teachers and worship them for their grades. They even stick answers in their shoes during exams.
It got so bad, it went to the point they reported me to a teacher. I defended myself, and then the teacher told them to end this.
That's when they began fuming about how I'm making myself look nice. Like I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing, they say.
I think they are also jealous because our profs, like most of them, praise my certain skill so much and say I make them cry.
They get better grades than me. I don't feel bad at all about that, but I don't know why they want to tear me down still.

If hadn't known better, from your story I would think that kind of thing happened in elementary school.
The only way you could forget about them is be successful. Work hard and be better than they are.

Yeah.
I moved to a different place now. While they are busy whining on twitter about ME still, like after 8 months, I'm doing stuffs like meeting great people who are my current friends, building my 'love life', listening to great music, and majoring in electronics.
Thank you very much everyone. This thread really made my heart warm. Thank you, I hope you all are doing well.
Thank you.

Wait, so they're the ones that are cheating? This is ridiculous.
I think this has gotten to the point where you need to speak to a professional like a counselor at the school. Bullying of any form isn't tolerated at all. Tell the counselor your side of the story and you'll finally have someone who will listen and do something about it. If you live in the US, many states have laws dealing with bullying and cyber bullying -- maybe you should look into that as well.
You are not filth or ugly.  People who make fun of others are the filth and scum of the world. Just do your coursework and you'll be out of there soon.

I don't know if this is even a rational thing to do, but it's worth a shot.
Tell their parents about what they're doing/what they have done.
Back in upper secondary school, me and my friends disliked this girl in my class, and we were really mean to her. One day, I got a text message from our teacher, telling me to meet up with her after class. My friends got the same text message. I was so ****ing nervous and had so much anxiety, because I knew it had to do with how we treated her. The meeting was us, the counselor, our teacher, and the girl + two of our other class mates in which she had confided through the whole ordeal.
I was so ashamed that other people knew how we had treated her (at the time I could only think about myself and my own reputation, but now that I'm older, I know 100% that what we did was wrong and if I could change the way we treated her, I would), especially my mom (I had to tell her about it), and from that meeting on, we were nice to the other girl.
My point being, if you're lucky, these people might realise that their behaviour is wrong if they're confronted by someone whose opinion matters to them - like their parents. That might put things in perspective to them - and their parents might take it really seriously (as they should) and make sure it doesn't happen again.

Let's put it this way:
I already have reported them to our adviser and they have received warning, but never stopped.
We've graduated HS now, and I've since tried to live a happy life until yesterday when a friend of mine told me about these things they say on twitter.

Telling their parents would make things worse and I want less people involved in this.
I'm sorry if this thread became a personal one.
I never knew there are warmhearted people on Atrl. I love you guys, and you genuinely made me feel better. It is a fresh experience that lasted for 10 months, but it is now in the past.
I'm away from them now, and I'm glad that my life is going to change for the better hereon.

The only thing you can really do is try to ignore the words or stand up for yourself. Telling a teacher or principal is gonna do nothing but piss them off. Sometimes you gotta face things head on. I've never gotten bullied, I'm not putting up with it.

Glad to hear you were able to get away from them and it's now over - it's a really difficult thing to deal with and it can do a lot of damage to you.
Don't dwell on it and keep on doing your thing, and you will find that with time it will move to the very back of your memory and not matter anymore at all (except for that fact that you will always have that feeling of strength that you were able to overcome that situation).

1. If you go to the same school, change.
2. Punch them in the face. Works every time.
3. Move on to better things in your life.
4. Don't try to argue with them; they'll always find a way to shoot you down. Just ignore them and they'll lose interest.
