Any books on how to fight back against severe psychological and verbal bullying?
I have read books on assertiveness and verbal self-defense, like The Complete Idiots guide series and others. But they focus on how to fight against light insults, they dont tell you how you can fight back psychologically and verbally against severe bullies/thugs. Bullies who eve teases (uses profanities against girls, to intimadate you), threatens to beat you up badly. Any books out there on how to psychologically attack (rightfully and assertively) a bully? If so, it would be really appreciating if anyone could give me the name of those books.
Popularity is the most effective weapon against bullying. Bullies pick on people who are secluded, outcasts, people who they can isolate away from the "masses". The bigger army wins... if you have lots of friends then it diminishes the power they have over you.
You can take a martial art, you'll be really good at fighting if it escalates into something more than verbal bantering... but even this can have limited effectiveness. For example: A bully picks on you, it turns violent, you beat up this guy. Next he gets a couple of buddies to help him beat you up. Even if you beat up all three guys he'll just find 5 more guy's to get you another time. There will be a point where you'll have to find your own army of guys to help you against fight him. -- Martial arts is a great way to develop self-confidence and bring up your self-esteem. But it's not the end-all beat all strategy.
Popularity on the other hand is a very effective non-violent deterrent. Make lots of friends, use charisma and charm to gain friends and colleagues. It will make it harder and harder for bullies to approach you when the masses are on your side.

Just like wild animals seek out their prey. They seek out the weak, young, elderly, or sickly... Wild animals do not seek out the strongest animal in a herd. The chances of getting hurt is greatly reduced by not picking on the strongest. Make yourself strong and you will not get bullied.

What is Scorpion trying to tell me?
I had a dream in which I handled a scorpion and the stinger fell off its tail. Someone threw the rest of it away and I saved it. There was also a spider, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.
The next night, I was watching TV and there was a bride who draped scorpions on the front of her wedding dress. She handled them as part of her job, I think.
What I want to know is what you think Scorpion is trying to convey to me. What I've gotten from researching power animals and spirit guides that Scorpion represents transmutation of poison, readiness, returning negative energy to its sender, and self defense. None of these things seem to apply to me right now.
Are there any other things that Scorpion represents? Or what do you think it could be predicting for me? Do you think someone is sending negative energy my way or is thinking of harming me?
I'm just looking for opinions.
