The start of my depression

The bullying started on my first day of 6th grade in a new school, some girls decided to corner me in the bathroom. They said that my hair was ugly and tangled and they told me I looked like a guy. That honestly hurt my feelings because I’ve never had anyone talk down on me like that. They picked on me for that whole year and one day I just decided I was over it and I fought back. They haven’t messed with me since but they did cause some serious mental health issues. You aren’t alone.
