I believed they were wrong.
I kept going.
I watched this video when I was 11/12, being abused at home, bullied, and suicidal.
I just turned 20, and I have lived so much. This changed my life.
Iāve had my first love, my first heartbreak, lost and gained friends and loved ones. Grappled self worth and won. Ive seen success. Iāve lived. Iāve grown.
Itās only been a decade since Iāve seen this, and Iāve already done so much that I would have missed.
The friends I lost, it breaks my heart even still to know even part of what theyāve missed.
I am so grateful to be alive to this day.
To anyone out there giving through this, it gets better. Itās clichĆ© and itās true. Iām so glad I didnāt give up: that I got a better mirror, looked a little harder.

It's been so many years, I forgot about this poem completely.
When this video was first shared with me and my class, It had such a powerful impact for myself. I was 15. No one in my class or entire grade saw the video the way I did. I often would replay the video at home and fall asleep to it on repeat, sobbing to myself until I couldn't bare another tear.
The scene "Some of us fell", I often wondered when it would be my turn.
Im 25 now, and sometimes still wonder. I never thought or believed I'd make it this far. And I still even have moments of weakness.
I struggle to cope with the past some days. But it's gotten better since then.
I hope everyone else who also struggled, I hope youre all doing better.
Or if youre someone who is struggling now, youre not alone. I know its hard. I promise it'll get better.
I understand the want, of wanting things to be better now rather than later. Unfortunately, sometimes we have to wait.
But I swear to you, when time passes by, it will get better

When this came out I was teen, battling hard core depression

I'm a mom to two with a loving husband who refuses to let me see the down side of life
I wouldn't be here if it wernt for this
Thank you
@zippidydoodles
schools be showing this in class, but then do absolutely nothing when kids say they r being bullied
@d3mil0rd
facts sadly
@nk-th4lm
i remember clearly when my school showed this, a kid in my homeroom afterwards said "what a waste of time" while i had to leave the class because i was breaking down because it hit too hard. those were the years when i wore nothing but baggy clothes to cover all my self harm. and to hear someone say that, made me feel like a waste of time

@Icarus Sam Hey there, Icarus Sam. How are things going?
@AnthonyMartinez-hd7ll
This is EXACTLY what came to mind when he says āWe both got moved to the back of class so we would stop being bombarded by spitballsā cause itās so true! When they do something to stop the issue itās to the bullied, not the bullies.
@Erin-oe7ie
I watched this in my English class and most kids' reactions to it was laughing at the pork chop thing
@xavierjimenez5659
Iām glad we all came back to this in adulthood hope everyoneās doing good
@celestialphoenixqueen9258
heard this in upgrading school during a special selective student program . and as they showed it to us in the meeting room i was messaging my then long distance bf and our then mutual 2 guy besties / my crushes . i was so emotionally close to shattering and depresively relapsing so much . this poem has helped me accept myself more and more and to not care about what people think , say or do about me cause i am not here to entertain anyone and everyone . i am healing myself from the wounds on my heart and soul cause of others
@comradecrust3068
my entire class is watching this for litrature so i guess this video got like a lot more views
@EgoArchive
I'm not thanks though!
