I AM STRONG (Awareness Campaign)

I Am Strong.

Bullying is one of the rampant social issues that today's generation is facing. Many teenagers commit suicide and suffers anxiety and depression. One of the most commonly abused use of internet through social media is cyber bullying.

I, myself had experienced to be bullied and the effects of this is really destructing. To be bullied lowers your self-esteem and puts you in an emotional state of balance. You lose your appetite, you can’t sleep and you get conscious of your actions all the time which is not healthy.

If you are not strong enough to fight this, you can really lose yourself into the dark. Imagine going to school and you hear bad rumors about you or logging in into your social media accounts and see bad comments on your profile. Imagine the negative effects that this will cause you. Eventually you will end up deactivating your account and losing the confidence of going out of your comfort zone.

This is the time that you need to seek help from your family. Do not be afraid to tell them how you feel and what is bothering you. Vent it all out! Don’t keep all the negative emotions pent up inside you. Remember, they can help you. Ask help and it shall be given to you.

That is why I will stand up for someone today. I am joining the movement against bullying. I am Strong!
