Dream about bullying?

I dreamt a story about a girl who was chronically bullied. She apparently was a bit of a creative type because she was throughout the dream taking photos of people and recording and trying to produce videos while using what she had available to MacGyver some kind of effect for her work. She looked like a younger Abbi Jacobson.
There were these girls who constantly tried to find ways to interfere with her work, either by mocking her for her always trying to make things, or her lack of friends since she was reclusive. It was mostly this head bully and it was a small town where everyone knew everyone which ihowbthey seemed to know about her activities. Most people around town seemed to already know about her work so often invited her to record their gatherings and moments.
I remember her resolving one scenario, but I forgot how. Worse, even despite confronting and finally pushing back against these girls for getting in her way, she still had one incident where she was attacked by the head bully and her friends, who had this uneasy alliance as they hesitated in another instance when they just attack her in a confrontation.
It was interesting because that fight ended with one of the bullies just not doing anything and defending her because she thought this was too much. The main bully thought she was just being weak and attacked anyway. The artistic girl never fought back though, just did something (I think found an adult?).
The last encounter she had had four of them attack her, but this time out of desperation, she grabbed a starter pistol, made sure to empty it, and fired it next to one of her attackers. It triggered a panic attack to hear the sound of the clicking of the gun in tandem and it had something to do with an incident in her past. I didn't get to find the revelation, only hear a faint memory of her mother tell her she wasn't going to take her man from her. It flashbacked to some memory of a party on a porch where a decently sized gathering of,
folks came to celebrate in a house party of sorts. The protagonist was videotaping something using a water bottle as a light filter. The person I was following didn't seem to be her though but the bully who seemed too pleasant to care and was friendly overall (though tolerable). At that point the alarm went on and I woke up.
