Bullying is emotional self-medication, an addiction to egogasms from harming others; all forms of abuse are simply tools.
The American Psychological Association (www) list: "Bullying, as repetitive, harmful and without cause or justification". The Australian Oxford Dictionary (1992) lists: "Bullying is the use of strength or power to hurt, intimidate or dominate others". Both of these definitions are deficient as they do not define a cause or justification for the said abuses that are not defensive actions. This failure to identify the cause or justification leaves the victim doubting their own credibility and society without a credible explanation, commonly holding the victim at fault.

Ego-gasms, the joy and euphoria produced from the dopamine hit from self validation, as portrayed by Tom Hanks after making fire in the movie Castaway. Soccer stars often display such feelings of elation after kicking a goal.

Sadly, such feelings of joy over self validation run both positively and negatively and include acts of self validation by invalidating others , bullying. The APA's DSM V lists "gratification" in the traits for "Antisocial Personality Disorder".
I had ego-gasms for a week after getting an article published.

Bureaucratic sodomy, is the bullshit one receives, outside of the law, from the bully in authority exclusively to maintain their emotional zone of of omnipotence when one crosses paths formally.
I reported a map that was 180 degrees wrong to the said authorities, instead of turning it around it was removed and a new map was installed 135 degrees wrong, as an example of bureaucratic sodomy. My attempt to address this resulted in an email claiming the new map was to better inform people and the original map was still in place, basically implying I was off my medication, as an example of further bureaucratic sodomy.
