Missing the Symptoms of the Explosive Bully

 


Bullies are often described as someone being different or a bit odd in their childhood, adolescence, or early adulthood, having an enduring pattern of identity crises, chaotic self-direction, lack of empathy, hypersensitivity to criticism, and intimacy. These fragmented artifacts of various personality disorders confuse school administrators, educators, and workplace leaders because the bully can also be charismatic individuals waiting to save the day on their terms. School-related acts of violence or mass school or workplace shootings involve individuals who exhibited these warning signs in a consistent and enduring pattern. However, leaders and administrators dismissed the symptoms under the labels of someone being different or a bit odd. -Dr. Stewart
