Cyberbullying refers to the use of digital platforms to harass, threaten, or humiliate individuals, often targeting young people. It can occur through social media, text messages, or online forums, making it pervasive and difficult to escape.
Victims of cyberbullying may experience emotional distress, anxiety, and depression. Unlike traditional bullying, cyberbullying can happen 24/7, and the anonymity of the internet can embolden perpetrators. Awareness and education are crucial in combating this issue and supporting those affected by it.
