I lost all my friends last year. They all started leaving me out of everthing they did. It was the worst feeling ever. I became really sad and down on myself thinking i did something wrong and it was all my fault. This new school year has been really tough for me just getting out of bed and going to school. Its hard to walk around the halls feel like you are not wanted by anyone. 
I want to make a difference in ending bullying, because ive felt the effects of it for a while and i dont wish it on anyone. No one should ever be treated like this ever.

I totally care because i am constantly bullied and i feel that it is not right for people to be judged for who they are. Plus half the people that i know who are bullied, their bullies do not even know them personally. I feel like people believe that they can make fun of anyone or anything just because they can and it{s not right! It needs to stop right now, because people seen to commit suicide more and more because of bullying and over 160,000 people stay home from school each day because they are feared of being bullied and it{s outrageous!!!! Though most people don{t see it as bullying and harassment, it is. I just wish our world had better pride about themselves and others that way there is no need for bullying.

I care because bully doesn't just happen in schools. It happens at work and sadly even at home. In some situations you can't do anything to stop it and that is the most helpless feeling in the world. Bullying is the most disgusting thing I can think of-there is absolutely no reason for it! If you are being bullied it's nice to know that people do care and there are many places you can go for help and support. I care because even though I don't know you I know that you are worth something and bullying must stop.
