How I Look

Every day I walk down the street with people shouting comments at me like you're fat, ugly and desperate.

I get this every day so I am slowly starting to believe it, I can't even walk out my front door without someone making a sarcastic comment and I'm fed up of it.

Some days I just feel like curling up in a ball and leaving the world behind, some days I feel like it's just me in the world and the only way I can express my feeling is this website. Last night I cried myself to sleep and woke up with dry eyes, I feel like I'm invisible and no one wants me around.

In school I'm always walking around on my own and everyone takes the Mick out of me because I'm on my own, some days I wish I was someone else. I think I'm unique but everyone is in there own way yet I think I'm different because I have no friends and I'm always on my own.

I have one friend he’s called Tim the snail. He gets me through the day. Knowing I have him by my side helps me so much. I'm happy that I have someone to turn to even though he’s a snail. I tell Tim everything because I can trust him with my life and know nothing bad is going to happen.

One day I hope things get better for me and Tim and maybe we will have our own little families one day; Tim will find a girl and I will find a boy who respects me for who I am and how I look. I pray every night hoping the next day will be better but it never is.

I have learned to put up with all the name-calling and the bullying I get from people I know and even people I don’t. The only person who respects me is my pet snail and my teddy bear Tom but he is slowly fading away because Tim slimed all over him and I can't wash him.

I think you're all being a bit mean, what's the point in reading a problem page if you're not going to give advice?

If the situation is still bad, then tell a teacher so she can keep an eyes on how people treat you.
Try to make sure you're not doing anything back, because if a teacher tells the bullies off they could give an excuse that you were doing it too.

As for you're friend situation I am sure that someone in the school feels sorry for you and/or wants to help. try and find a nice group of people and explain your problem, If they are good friends they will understand you and allow you to be friends.

I hope this helps xxx

Everybody has things about the way that they look that they aren't happy with- believe me! Try to focus on the good things about yourself. Meic are really good people to talk to if you need some advice, follow the at the bottom of the article :)
