High self-esteem is what I was referring to, in essence.

High self-esteem is not equal to sound mental health. Psychopaths have high self-esteem.

Not every bully is a psychopath. Unwarranted self-esteem leads to problems in life whether it's high or low.




The comment I was responding to mentioned bullying as a response to "inner pain". If the study I quoted is accurate that is not the case.

I'm not going to dwell into self-esteem and socio/psycopathy labels.
