I was bullied and it tore me apart. I don't want anyone else to have to go through the things I went through. Or make the mistakes I made because of it.

it's not really me being bullied, but my friend, they bully her because of her goiter which i think is so uncool and mean, she cries often, but when she tells her mother they just tease her even more, thats why i commented is 'cause i want everbody to know that talking it out relly helps, like my friend and i did.

I've been bullied because I have short hair and the things I like...Well I'm tired of it! I want to be who I am, not someone I'm not. Why can't they accept me for who I am? I just want it to end!

i've been bulied for 5 years and still get it. i have told the school and nothing really gets sorted. i think everyone that gets bullied should tell someone as its really inportant.

When someone bullies someone else- they probably have a reason... but that's no excuse. Either way, you should treat  everyone- including bullies well, because you don't want to turn out to be the bully in the situation.

I am tired of people getting their feeling hurts 
I don't want the same thing that happened to Phoebe Prince & Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover and other kids to happen again.
I want people to feel safe being who they want to be.

Ruth - 16 - CA

I want to be ME. Not someone they want me to be. If you don't like me, Leave Me Alone!

Katherine - 14 - RM

I might have not been bullied but I have been hurt. Being hurt by my 'bestfriends'. Even if the people who are hurting you happen to be your 'friends' tell someone, cuz they aren't a friend if they do what they do to you. I learned, and I'm healing

I got bullied in 5th and 6th class. When teachers said something everybody sais sorry, but when the teachers was not there everyone was starting bullying me again.
In 7th class we switched the people in the class, because we can choose between 2 languages.
In my new class everything is alright and everyone is nice to me and all the others in class :)
Ps. sorry for my bad english, I'm from germany^^

I was bullied in 8th & 9th grade. I was taken out of school for it to stop. Teachers, principals, deans, ect. Did not help me when I needed it. I wasn't able to finish High school because of this growing problem. I got my GED, & now some of my siblings are faceing this ordeal. We need to band together & put a stop to this once & for all!!!! I tweeted to help spread the awareness.

I don't think I have been bullied yet but I still think Bullying someone is NOT OKAY. My friends and I were called some bad names at school but actually we stood up for ourselves and it actually has kinda stopped yet. Since weve been so brave and self confident to stand up for ourselves, we actually get along with some people we never thought we would. 
IT'S IMPORTANT TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELF AND OTHERS. I know it's hard but I think it really helps. Good luck.
Teens against Bullying.

my cousin commited suicide two years ago because he was being horrifically bullied. I would do anything to prevent this from happening to someone else. Can you imagine being like that, so scared/confused/alone? No one should have to go through that.

I know what it's like to feel low after someone has put you down. Everything has been nearly perfect in my life until this year bullies at school. From this message forward, I'm telling you to not care, and don't buy into the pressure. The bullies that got away, will get karma. Lucklily my bullies play mind games, give me looks, call me names, etc. I'm just telling you that the key is to not care, keep moving forward.

"I'm constantly being picked on by people because of my past and the people I hang out with. I haven't had the courage to stand up formyself so I'm lucky I have friends to stand up for me. If you know someone who is being bullied, you should help them because it's a scary situation to be in and you don't know what it is like to be bullied."

Kenny - 15 - NJ

I care because I know someone who rencently commited suicide after being bullied. She was a great girl, who was always happy. She was cyber bullied until it was too late.  Lastly, I was also bullied, I was called ugly, fat and other gross names and to this day, two years later, I'm still affected by it, it still hurts me. I think every teen should get involed with this great cause.

i know how it feels. everybody should look around themselves. you might e bullying people and not even know it. there is no downside to helping

Courtny - 14 - ny

Witnessing bullying and doing nothing to stop it is almost as bad as being bullied. Stand up for your friends.

Tyler - 16 - KY

Bullying makes kids feel depressed. Many kids feel bad about themselves because of bullies. I am sometimes bullied ,but I always try to ignore the bullies comments.

Karolina - 12 - IL

anonamous - 11 - md

i care about this because i know how it feel to be bullied.people calling you name,embarrass you & more.And when you get bullied badly,you have no one to turn to.in school,people called me bad names but i don't care cause they are making want to look good by bullying people.if i saw student bullying friends,i sometimes talk to them.

My 11 year old sister has been bullied and made fun of because of her weight since she was 8. There are very very mean people in her school that make fun of her because of her weight, and she's not even big. They don't take the time to see her natural beauty, discover her beautiful attitude, or to get to know her before they judge her. Underneath all the tears, there is a girl with a beautiful heart of gold. Bullying needs to stop for little girls like my sister. 

Megan - 14 - PA

i have never been bullied before but the people that are being bullied feels sad and don't want to go to school but you have to go to to school and one day you will go to school and you will stand up for yourself it dosen't matter what people say about you.

valentina - 12 - fl

i have had things stolen from me and said about me. things that are unforgetable. you can replace stolen objects but it takes a while to build up your self esteem. i look up to Demi Lovato mostly because she stayed strong through the bullying. and hearing about her story helped me stay strong.  i hope one day a girl who is being bullied can look at me and think "she made it through. so can i'

You never know the full extent of bullying and name calling. the worst part is those who put on a mask and pretend it doesnt get to them usally start thinking of themselfs as crap. Some of these teens and adults dont think they can stand to look in the mirror and see their own face one more day and it leads to suicide. Think twice before you bully and report any cases of bulling to an adult.
