I Care Because
"I was bullied from the first to the sixth grade, then I moved schools. It really hurts when the bullys tell you mean stuff. It made me want to kill myself. I cut myself all the time because i can still hear what theyre saying. Sometimes I'll have flashbaks of them slapping me to the point where I got frustrated and cried. I know how it feels to be bullied. I still cut myself but I'm trying to get help,i just dont know how to ask. I have suicidal thoughts too. I hide my body by wearing long clothes,even in the heat. Please stop bullying,in a way it saves lifes if you dont bully."

I was bullyed all throughout elementry school. The pain i had from all the negativity was terrible. I still remember the words they said. I will never remember what they looked like, if they were popular or not. The bullying that I went through was so bad that I felt depressed. I never want to see it happen to someone. No one should ever go through that. But if you are, understand that you are not alone.

I care because I was bullied about my weight until 5th grade and then I decided to stop it without violence so I told my teacher and she didn't listen so I asked may I go to the counselor and then she said yes I told the counselor and she gave him in-school suspension and I was never bullied again my message to people that are being bullied is you have to stop him/her from making you feel bad because if you do that makes them feel good and just do it more

I care because,every single person is effected by thing problem, we all have been bullied and are the bully even if we don't know it. Saying "I'm not a bully so I'm preventing bulling" is a lie and a easy excuse to avoid the problem. We can stand together to change but we need to be willing to work together because together we are stronger,

Just two days ago as I was driving, a woman in the car beside me yelled, "FREAK!" as I drove by. This person had no right to call me any name. I've never seen her before in my life, and I probably will never see her again. Not only does bullying from strangers hurt, but it hurts even more when people you thought were your friends bully you to your face, and even behind your back. Words and actions hurt. Even as an adult I am victimized by the way that I dress, my piercings, and my tattoos. An outward appearance does not show the way you are inside. I am a firm believer in bullying prevention and people seeking help because of bullying. Don't ever give up. You're better and stronger than the people bullying you. I love every single one of you.
