through years and tears

Anonymous

Hi my name is Jocelyn and this is my story. In elementary school kids didn’t like me because i was tall and i was talented. The music teacher told us to perform our favorite song. I sung Thousand Years by Christina Perri. He liked it and gave me extra points. Also i was was in the gifted program so they called me nerd or bookworm. long story short i hated myself by the end of elementary school.
Middle school came and the insults kept coming. Only this time kids started to hit me. i was called slut, whore, punk. all because i hung out with boys. that’s all i grew up around so of course. they hated that i was always liked by teachers. by the end of middle school i was diagnosed with depression.
Now i’m a freshmen and it still continues. people don’t like me because i’m different. they know i’m not one to keep quiet. i cry a lot. at least 4 times a week.
