You may need to look into some books on confidence-building and positive thinking.

Bullying has been a hot topic in recent years. That is because people are becoming aware that bullying can have devastating impacts on a person for a lifetime. Victims of bullying often develop low self-esteem and social anxiety which impairs their ability to develop and maintain relationships, pursue an education, and can possibly impact a person's ability to obtain employment and to keep a job, affecting their life-long earning potential. Also, people who suffer from longer-term bullying often develop substance-abuse issues.
