im listening

"There, it all went downhill.
I was bullied horribly. Once, a girl told me to look up, then threw sand into my eyes. Then, some boy threw a block at my head and I was bleeding everywhere.
At eight I moved back to Florida. It wasn't any better. Many people teased me about my weight. This was when I began cutting. But in third grade I met two amazing guys who have stood by my side to this day.
In middle school... well, this one is the worst... I was in sixth grade. Because of some bladder issues, I pi.ssed myself in one of my classes.
Everyone made fun of me, but Max stood up for me.
I went home to draw on my legs..."

ohhh thats horrible

"In seventh grade I met a girl, whom I will call Bailey.
Bailey was, at first, a very kind girl. Or so I thought.
Later on, she would cuss at me, hit me, and even cut me or burn me.
In eighth grade it only got worse. Other kids threw rocks at me, hit me with glass bottles, and broke them at my feet while walking barefoot.
I was glad to go to NYC in spring.
But it wasn't good at all.
Bailey... well... she...
She rap3d me. Twice. So I cut.
Deep.

"My legs were shredded by the end of the week. I didn't tell anyone...
At least, not until quite recently.
I... finally stood up to her. I was so SICK of being treated like SH!T! So when she tried coming at me, I told her how I felt.
But she hit me.
I just... couldn't do it...
I punched her in the jaw and held her down, I then screamed at her about how much pain she caused me. How much...
...it hurt."

"Now that I'm in highschool, things are much better.
Although I am still made fun of because of my s3xuality. Even then, I try not to let it get to me. Over the Summer I was rap3d again. Which caused perminant damage.
Odds are, I can't have kids. Hey, I'm going to be in pain till I die, but you know what? As long as I have my friends beside me...
I hope to one day tell others about my story, in more detail of course, in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, we can stop bullying together."

TELL PEOPLE. GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT IT AND GET HELP. DON'T LISTEN TO BULLIES, GETTING HELP FOR THIS IS NOT "TATTLE-TALING", GETTING HELP FOR THIS IS NOT COWARDLY,
IT IS RIGHT.
IT NEEDS TO STOP BUT IT WON'T UNTIL YOU TELL PEOPLE LIKE THE SCHOOL OR YOUR PARENTS.
THEY'RE NOT LISTENING?
TELL AGAIN.
BULLIES BULLY?
TELL AGAIN.
GET THE WORD OUT. THAT'S MY ADVICE.

Sure, people are HORRIBLE.
But the horribleness only stops if you tell people about it.

I like how, after all you've been through, you can find a positive spin and that you have friends who you can count on through it all. You don't need me to tell you how hard it must have been to cope with all that, but the fact is that you did cope. Yes, you caused yourself harm through cutting, but I think you've learned since then that pain doesn't cure pain and I certainly hope you've discovered your value as a person who doesn't deserve any of this. True inner strength begins with accepting yourself. After all, you can't make something you don't accept stronger. Sometimes the difficulties we go through in life help us to grow and build character. Remember your friends and try to forgive those who have hurt you, including yourself, but you also need to speak out. Tell your family or someone you trust and find ways to make sure this can never happen again. You can't change the past, but you can make the future better for yourself and others.

If you've had issues gaining weight or health problems and don't feel you are able to properly defend yourself, don't be afraid to ask for help and pain up whenever going places. If we were meant to live on this planet only depending on ourselves, we wouldn't have friends and family. It literally takes more than one of us to make another, so reach out. Be careful for the future, forgive the past and find healing for the present. And, though I understand it's very personal, if you want to talk more on here, there's people who care and who you can talk to separately on here. But, of course, if you have friends and family, tell them.

^That's supposed to read "PAIR up when going places", as in stay in groups.

This took real courage, to let this out! You do have inner strength, I agree with rogue. I can't even let out in detail what I went threw growing up. I praise you for having the strength to let this out. So sorry if I am back and fourth on my on my comment. I just want you to know, your very strong,
I am so sorry to hear this, rogue gave great advice, and I am here for you! If you need anything, we can find a way to talk private. @Lucas, you have some great advice also.
This awful evil thing you dealt with, please believe, they will have to answer to what they did, in the end. You did nothing wrong, please do not ever blame yourself!
My heart goes out to you! Allot of us here, will be here for you. Please try to stay strong, & know we are here for you!
MANY ANGEL BEAR HUGS for you!

Thanks guys c':
It feels great to know people care... I'll take y'all's advice. I'll try to stay happy c:

This is Very sad... The Second i started reading it, i cried to the very end.. :'(

:[ I agree with these comments...

cutting doesnt help its just so senceless like srsly if you have problems/are in physical pain WHY THE F4CK HURT YOURSELF EVEN MORE??? ASK PEOPLE FOR HELP MAYBE??
I GOT BULLIED ALL MY LIFE SO I TOLD MY TEACHERS UNTILL THEY THREW THE BULLIERS OFF DA SCHOOL
DIDNT CUT MYSELF CUZ THIS JUST DOESNT HELP OK

I stopped cutting. And... you wouldn't understand unless you were in my shoes.

I can't say that I know what you're going through, because I don't, I mean i've bean bullied psysically before but never like that. Look what you need to know is there us differance between bullying and crime. All of what you said was not about a bully, but a criminal. Remember that.

@TheKingExtreme raised a good point. We are talking criminal behavior here, but this also goes to an even broader issue. There is one last minority group that are still treated like a lower class and denied equal rights and protections under the law. In fact, the very name for this group is "minors". If any of the things we've learned to call bullying happened between adults, every one of them would be a crime. The fact that brutal physical as.saults are called "bullying" because the people involved are "minors" shows that we don't have the same human rights we deserve and at some point we'll need to fight for them to truly stop crime called bullying.

I'm crying over this story....
This is so bad, that criminal charges should be brought up about what happened.
MCRWolfeh, If you read this, if you ever need someone to talk to. You have Me, Rogue Ranger, and everyone who commented on this painting.
I just don't want this to happen to you again....

:'(

Your life was horrible...I apologize for not helped you when all that happened, even if I don't know you. Hope you find real help and stop being bullied.
