When I was in middle school in a small town of Kentucky they didn't really accept gay people. So I was bullied most of my life, I really didn't have someone I could to talk to about it. I dealt with the threats and being beat almost constantly everyday in fact. I can't change who I am, just because something is different doesn't make them a freak. I had to move from this school because the taunting got so bad that I tried to commit suicide a time or two. I don't want this to have to happen to someone else and have to deal with the constant torture that I went through. I am here only to this because of the support of my family if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be here I probably wouldn't even be alive today. I am taking the step to help another person who is or has dealt with what I went through. I want to be the voice of the voiceless the ones who are to afraid to help themselves, the ones who aren't here today. Because someone took their voice away who cause the pain of not wanting to live.
