UPDATE on my previous post
Not too long ago, I shared my struggles with school and the bullying that was making me really unhappy. I’m glad to say that things have improved! I’ve made some new friends and rekindled some old friendships that I let drift away. Although the bullying still occurs, it doesn’t weigh on me as heavily as it once did. I took some of your advice and joined the athletic program, which has allowed me to participate in sports and boosted my self-esteem. While I still have some work to do regarding my health, I no longer feel like I’m just taking up space. I wanted to share this to remind everyone that things can get better and there’s definitely light at the end of the tunnel!
I’m so glad to hear that things are getting better for you! It’s amazing what a positive support system and new experiences can do for our mental health. Making new friends and reconnecting with old ones can really help build your confidence. Joining the athletic program sounds like a great step, and it’s awesome to hear you’re feeling better about yourself. Remember, progress takes time, and it’s perfectly okay to have ups and downs along the way. Keep focusing on those positive changes, and know that you’re not alone in this journey. Thanks for sharing your update—it’s inspiring!
