I know what it feels like to get bullied. I get bullied everyday. No matter what anyone does, it doesnt stop. I wish it would all just stop. But no one seems to care.

The same thing happened to me the last year... Some very mean and dumb boys started picking on me and told me every single day that I'm gay and threw away my bag, etc. But one day, I stood up for myself and told them my true opinion about them: how insecure and worthless they are for trying to bring me down. Then all my classmates took my side, and those jerks never said a single word to me ever again. I've made many new friends and now I'm actually very popular ;) don't give up dude!

Bullying doesn't go away. Even if the bully stops, the words or comments or bruises will never heal. They leave scars that no amount of scar cream will erase. It's not a passing phase or right of passage. Nobody should ever go to school and feel like they're not loved and appreciated. The hardest part for me to comprehend is that bullying IS entirely preventable. So think before you and your friends leave that mean comment, or send that anonymous text, or tell that boy in the hallway he's worthless, or shoving the girl who's dating your best friend's crush into the locker. Just think about what you're about to do to that person and the scars you'll be leaving behind. Just THINK.
