In recent years a word has become popular around the world: "bullying". Since different incidents have highlighted very well the enormous importance of paying attention to the way in which bullying can affect the person who suffers it. Bullying is a major problem that affects many young and not so young people and can have serious consequences for their mental and emotional health and can also cause anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, suicidal thoughts and other mental health problems.

The definition of bullying is that it is repetitive and persistent behavior that includes verbal, physical or emotional harassment. It can occur in person or online, and online bullying, also known as cyberbullying, can be especially harmful due to the global and 24/7 nature of the Internet. One of the most tragic consequences of constant bullying on a person is that it can trigger suicide, as the person being bullied feels they can't take it anymore and because of low self-esteem or constant depression feels it would be better if they were gone.

En los últimos años se ha popularizado una palabra por todo el mundo: "El bullying". Ya que por diferentes incidentes ha recalcado muy bien la enorme importancia de prestarle atención a la manera en la que El bullying puede afectar a quien lo sufre. El bullying es un problema importante que afecta a muchos jóvenes y no tan jóvenes y que puede tener graves consecuencias para su salud mental y emocional además puede causar ansiedad, depresión, baja autoestima, pensamientos suicidas y otros problemas de salud mental.

And that same pain or feeling of guilt for the constant bullying is what the series 13 Reason Why wants to show us, since the plot revolves around a teenager named Hannah Baker who decides to take her own life after suffering bullying and sexual assaults by her classmates. And it also revolves around Clay, a boy who receives a mysterious box where there are a series of cassettes numbered from 1 to 13 in them he will discover the reasons why Hannah Baker took the decision to commit suicide. The series shows how bullying and lack of support from adults can have a deep and lasting impact on a young person's life, and also how that same pain that Hannah felt also affected her friends and family.

Now, let's talk a little bit about the essence behind the series, as I have discussed before in this article, bullying is something that should not be taken lightly, as it can negatively affect people's lives. One can never know how much damage constant bullying can cause someone. In Hannah's case she ended up taking her own life because she couldn't take it anymore with so many problems and also when she tried to ask for help no one was really interested in her and what is worse her own friends or rather those who claimed to be her friends ended up moving away or sinking her even more.

Y ese mismo dolor o sentimiento de culpa por el acoso constante es lo que la serie 13 reason why nos quiere mostrar, ya que la trama gira en torno a una adolescente llamada Hannah Baker que decide quitarse la vida después de sufrir acoso escolar y agresiones sexuales por parte de sus compañeros de clase. Y tambien gira en torno a Clay, un chico que recibe una caja misteriosa donde hay una serie de casets enumerados del 1 al 13 en ellos el descubrirá las razones por la cuales Hannah Baker tomo la decisión de suicidarse. La serie muestra cómo el bullying y la falta de apoyo por parte de los adultos pueden tener un impacto profundo y duradero en la vida de un joven, y tambien como ese mismo dolor que sintió Hannah tambien afecto a sus amigos y familiares.

Ahora, hablemos un poco de la esencia detrás de la serie, como ya lo he comentado antes en este artículo, el bullying es algo que no debe tomarse a la ligera, ya que puede afectar negativamente la vida de las personas. Uno nunca puede saber cuánto daño puede causarle a alguien un acoso constante. En el caso de Hannah se terminó quitando la vida porque no aguantaba ya con tantos problemas y además cuando trato de pedir ayuda nadie se interesó realmente en ella y lo que es peor sus propios amigos o más bien aquellos que decían ser sus amigos terminaron alejándose o hundiéndola aún más.

I never got to see it, I found out about the series from a discussion on social networks about the suicide theme. Also, they made another season, but it received bad reviews because it didn't reach the level of the first one. At the moment it's not on my radar, but the first season of the series had good ratings.

Yes you are right, the second and third and I don't know if there was a fourth never reached the level of the first, thanks for commenting :D

13 Reasons is a really great series. I really enjoyed it even though I stopped half way in season 3. The series has 4 seasons but I have not finished it yet.

The first two seasons are about Hannah Baker. In this story, Hannah was not just bullied but she was constantly harassed. The abuse and cruelty that she constantly faced from other students eventually became overwhelming and she ended it all. The fact that they were able to make the typical high school setting so intense and unforgiving was a plus. The series is dark for sure even though it involves teenagers. Of course, teenagers are probably the most troubled age group.

I can’t wait to finish this series. You should to!😁

Un tema atractivo, quizá habría que manejar el concepto de a cuál público va dirigida o a cuál quieren hacer reflexionar.
Tu reseña me parece excelente y sin duda es una buena recomendación.
