Cyberbullying spreads like a virus online through social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. It can negatively impact victims' mental health and cause depression, withdrawal, and lower academic performance. To help prevent further harm, bystanders should support victims by posting kind comments online and telling trusted adults about the bullying. Putting an end to cyberbullying requires changing bullies' behavior and creating a more positive online environment.
