Bullying and Suicide: Take Action (2011)

Hey everyone. Sorry if I haven't spoken to you in a while, I've just been busy with work. Anyway, I'm going to try to make this as short as possible because I'm sure a lot of you probably don't want to read a novel right now.

I'm here to talk about a few things that are very serious to me:
Bullying and Suicide. These two things have always been a huge deal to me and that will never change. After reading this article in People magazine about how these 3 kids killed themselves in the past month, it ripped my heart into pieces. I just couldn't imagine something like that happening to someone that I care about, and I want to let everyone know that you're not alone.

Now, if you guys don't mind, I'm going to get a bit personal to prove to you guys that I know what you're going through and that
I'm here for you.

Growing up,
I was bullied. It wasn't as HUGE of a deal as it is today, I was never hit or anything but that doesn't that what I went through didn't hurt. I was always picked on by boys for some reason: From kindergarten up until 9th grade, I was verbally abused. They made fun of my weight, called me ugly, said they were going to kill me. It was awful, and I really did want to die but instead I took action. This might sound cowardly, but it's the RIGHT thing to do. I went to my parents; they're the only ones who cared enough to help. Every time something happened, they went right down to the school and spoke to the teachers and just in a matter of days, things changed.

But enough about me, I just want to let you guys know that if you're being bullied or physically/verbally abused by
ANYONE: don't just sit there and do nothing; TAKE ACTION. Talk to someone, parents, a family member and if you can't find anyone to talk to or find someone who will take action, talk to ME. That's what I'm here for. I'll always try to give you advice and if I can't, I'll just be there to pray for you because whether you believe it or not, prayer does change but I will never know what’s wrong with you until you tell me. Please don't keep it bottled in.

Just because something goes wrong in your life, you don't have to up and try to kill yourself. We can't always get our way that's for sure. A lot of people just use suicide as a way to get attention which is pretty pathetic. If you need attention that bad to the point where you're trying to end your life, then you need to see a certified psychologist. Remember: We all have our ups and downs in life; you just have to find somebody that you can relate to and be sure to keep your head up no matter how hard things get.

Well, that's all I have to say for right now. I hope I got through to you guys. Thanks for reading and God Bless.
