Writer's Block: Anti-bullying month

[amamelina]

I can only think of twice in my life when bullying made me want to die. The first time, I didn't know that I could physically take my own life. I just prayed and wished to die just so I wouldn't have to face that person the next day. The second time, I thought about death, but never went through with it

It's truly sobering to realize how cruel people can be. As someone who has been bullied, sometimes to a level I'd consider emotionally abusive, I completely understand how powerless it can make you feel and I wish no one had to go through it. I'm humbled by the fact you chose to share this with us, though - I find talking about it helps me heal, and I hope the same goes for you.
