Real Teens Speak Out

Weight causes depression

When I was in seventh class I we the best athlete in my school but after a year everything turned upside down and because if some health issues I was admitted in the hospital and was injected with bottles of glucose which turned me fat and fat……….
Later I was overweight and one day my aunt started comparing me with her weight and made fun that her and my size of clothes are same. She used to give her old kurtas (indian dress). After which my self esteem was going down. She never let me wear shorts and tops and told me to wear Kurtas,after which I losed all my self confidence and I used to wear loose clothes as she said wearing those my heaviness can’t be seen by others. After that she compared me to her daughter who was thin and can wear whatever she wants to , after that I thought I have to do something I stared eating less and once I was thin which was after my class 12 exam I became conscious that I should not gain weight now and I limited my diet and used to eat very less and started throwing up whatever I ate this goes now also. I know this is wrong but I can’t control myself throwing out that less food also. I know it had a very bad effect on my body. I always eat food by reading the label about the fat. Now one thing struck me: why are we judged in this way? Why only thin and lean people enjoy life.
I don’t know if I will stop throwing out my food, but try my best just thought people should know it so that they know how can few of their small actions and words affect others.

Ps: my parents never said anything about weight but they never stopped my aunt also

No more friend

I am year 9 and this new girl comes to my school and my friend knows her. The new girl (S) and I become friends but after a while she would always do little things like putting the rude finger up at me for no reason or just calling me names. She would do it like once a week or something and I just ignored it until she put the rude finger up at my best friend so I grabbed her finger and gripped it and told her to never do it again. I escaped her for a bit until the transition week. We had science together and she would always bring up philosophy and then argue. Then she would purposely irate me and just use me for work and I was stupid and fell for it. She started repeating what she used to do but then in arguments she would start she would randomly bring my crush into the mix which was pathetic. I stood up to her but then she called me a 4 year old and start saying I am an open book and threaten to ask him out for me when I told her I am not dating him. She told me that I could be physical and I got heated up and walked off. She then spread rumours that I had a crush and people were coming up to me asking if they would say she told them. On the last day of school she was walking back with me and my bestie and she started saying stuff about me that was nasty and so childish and pretending I wasn’t there.

i hate school

When I was in middle school a mean girl in my class was being rude and was calling me fat and ugly told me to go die, called me names like a 3-year-old, and a dirty stupid rat. She was bullying only me and i hurt inside to feel how much people hate me, she said she’ll surely miss me when I’m gone, and she tells people I hit with scissors. she also threatened to fight me but i told to leave me alone but she never does. Then she challenged me to a fight and so I told I’m not going to fight because there’s no point so she started hitting me so I defended myself and fought back and then the day came where I thought I should die.

this girl keeps messing with me

everyday i go to school i scared cause she bully me. and i ask her “why u bully me”. but her answer is “you have no witnesses”. every single day she does this. shes even throwing paper balls at me right now. i never did anything to her. and when i look at her she gives me an evil sneer. everyday she always hits m shoulder in the hallway. i am sick and tired of her bully me. it feel like abuse every school day.

The kid who was being himself

Once there was a boy named C and he was a boy like NO other, he wasnt the best at reading he was mean to a LOT of people for no reason like he’ll call them vile names and etc. but one day we all got to middle school and he kept the same energy and boy did people not accept that, people went and called him names like being fat, and dumb, and a person wo was ugly as h***. He got tired of it so he started to curse them out in class, and he would get into trouble for doing what he was doing. It started to mess up his grades and it started to mess up his self confidence, so then when people saw what it was doing to him they started to do it more and more and as time went on it got worse the people started to talk about his mom, his brother, his home, and everything else they could think of that would make him mad. So one day the schools 6th grade principal came into the class and saw that some of the kids were picking on him so he suspended all the people that C said was bullying him and they had to change classes. Then we had a class talk about why it wasnt ok to bully people for this type of stuff the kids didnt understand how real this stuff was not knowing that the boy could have considered killing himeself. So to all the people out there that read this story dont be the one to go to jail for having another one of your peers commit suicide, and remember dont think that this is one of the adults take it from one of the many kids out there like me who are your ages, its NOT ok to bully people for no reason especially if its because of one of the things that your going through at home, its NOT ok!! I hope that this saved your life and someone elses C

Bullied of my quietness and nationality

When I first moved to England and started primary school I got bullied because they heard I was German, so the kids called me nazis and hitler and it was annoying I couldn’t tell a teacher because I didn’t know more English later when I was in year 7 I started mosque and I heard the same thing later I in year 10 I transferred mosque in a all girls class they used to blame me for everything saying that I’m stupid . But I learned to always be strong.

cyberbullied

when I started high school last year , so many guys liked me and I am guessing for my beauty but I didn’t like that because they always tried to ” flirt” with me and I didn’t want a guy who liked me for my beauty I wanted them to like me because of my personality. And over all I was not thinking about love i was more concentrated with school work. Anyway, a lot of the girls didn’t like that . SO in my school if someone bullies someone inside the school they would be expelled. So a group of girls found my snapchat and started saying mean things to me on my phone and on my computer. They started threatening me telling me I better move to a new place because if I don’t they will kill me. I was scared so i told my trusted stepmom about it she told the school and luckly the group of girls got expelled. Even though the boys didn’t stop bothering me i was glad that those mean, jealous brats were away from me. Don’t let others judge you because they look at your outside and not your inside.

Mean girl bullying in middle school

When I was in middle school a mean girl in my class called S was being racist to me and called me chink, ching chong, banana, bing bong, and a dirty stupid rat. She was bullying so many Asians and also was a sadist, she said she’ll surely miss me when I’m gone, and that she’ll kill me. she also threatened to cut out my intestines and sell them. Then she challenged me to a fight. But then I ignored her because it’s her problem, not mine. I’m glad that I’m not in the same high school as her, because she was a nightmare.

My Story

As a kid I was very shy, and clumsy. Before I had lots of friends. When I got into middle school I was called a cheater whenever I got a good grade. I was called stinky fish, trash. I got hit by balls and tripped on purpose. People always laughed at me. I hated it. But I tried my best to Ignore it. My only focus was school. I wanted to get a 4.0 for a grade average. I went to a rich school, a school with lots of popular people. I never got depressed, or thought bad about myself. But I always tried to find a way to make people notice me or just for one day not say something bad about me. Then I moved, once again. A girl asked me to be her friend. A few days ago we had a conversation until she started to bring up different skins. She said she wasn’t trying to be racist. Until she pointed at me and said, “You’re a different skin.” That’s because I’m Asian. That doesn’t change anything though. I got really offended but I tried to not show my anger. That night I felt like crying my eyes out. Instead I wanted to say, “Just because I speak a different language and my hair is a different color doesn’t mean I am not equal to everyone here. ” For others I might believe my story may not sound like a bullying story but for those who are getting bullied, don’t change yourself. Even if you have glasses, you have bad grades, your not pretty, it doesn’t matter. You are who you are and no one can change that. Your beautiful just the way you are, your just like a piece of gold hiding under the dirt, waiting to be found. Stand for what you believe in. Even if your standing alone.

No One Cares about J.

Hello,
I am the friend of a remarkable young man by the name of J.B a Bi-racial young man . This is a rather long post, but I will give you a quick synopsis of the story. Before bullying, J.B. was a caring and loving young man. He loved playing baseball and just simply helping others. However, over the last couple of years a group of hateful people has made his life a living hell. It all started when J.B. decided to stand up for someone who couldn’t defend herself. Since then he has been the victim of constant harassment and unjust ridicule. He would walk down the hallway at school and get called the “N-word” on a daily basis. He has been falsely accused of grotesque sexual behavior (which was revealed to be a false report). The parents of the children involved had a restraining order placed on this young man. He would be at baseball practice and these young females would show up. Once that happens he would have to cut his baseball practice short. They would walk back and forth in front of his home tormenting him, taunting him all because they could. His mom contacted the school and to no surprise they were no help. He has become severely depressed and withdrawn because in his small town he has become an outcast. His mom did hire an attorney to try and get this issue handled, but unfortunately they keep delaying the procedure because they are trying to “drain her dry” so that this family will just give up. Unfortunately this is a small town stuck in the dark ages. No one deserves to be treated like this. Please help me help J.B. by showing him that this type of behavior is unacceptable and will not be tolerated in this day and age. I ask that we rally together to expose these racists and push them back into the dark corners of their snake hole. J.B. is a wonderful, talented, smart young man who deserves to be treated like such. I will not stop until these racist, ignorant, and evil people are exposed and the truth is exposed.
