Bullying is common in schools and is often seen as an inevitable part of school life. Children who are bullied tend to be more anxious and insecure than their peers. We report the case of a 13-year-old boy who was bullied from the age of 9 and presented to the local Child and Adolescent Mental Health Team (CAMHS) with a psychotic depression. Clinical improvement and re-integration into school was achieved by use of psychotropic medication and work on building self-esteem so that the patient could assert himself, both with peers and adults. There is evidence suggesting that children and adolescents who are bullied have increased rates of referral to the CAMHS, particularly with symptoms of depression.

校园欺凌很常见，而且通常被视为学校生活中不可避免的一部分。被欺凌的孩子往往比他们的同龄人更加焦虑和不安。我们报告了一例 13 岁男孩的病例，他从 9 岁起就遭受欺凌，并因精神病性抑郁症到当地儿童和青少年心理健康团队（CAMHS）就诊。通过使用精神药物和建立自尊心的工作，使患者能够在与同龄人及成年人交往时更好地表达自己，从而实现了临床改善和重新融入学校。有证据表明，被欺凌的儿童和青少年到 CAMHS 的转诊率增加，特别是有抑郁症状的儿童和青少年。（Int J Psych Clin Pract 2000; 4:73-75）。
