Bullying can leave: Emotional scars. If you know someone who is being bullied get them help. If you suffered from abuse by bullies consider speaking with a therapist to overcome the negative effects of these experiences.

Tell someone: I would say trauma is caused, more than arrested development, per se Find someone you trust and say something. Keeping it inside does nothing. Depending on the context, find out what resources you have at your disposal to stop the bullying.
