I’m in a bit of a tough situation and could use some advice. Some classmates decided it would be amusing to find a random explicit photo online and claim it was mine. These are the same people who make fun of my weight, even though I’m 5’11” and around 65 kg. If anyone has any suggestions or support, I’d really appreciate it! Thank you.

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re going through this. It sounds incredibly frustrating and hurtful. Here are a few steps you might consider taking:
Stay Calm: It’s natural to feel upset, but try to stay calm when responding to the situation.
Talk to Someone: Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or a teacher who can support you. They might have helpful advice or be able to intervene on your behalf.
Address the Situation: If you feel comfortable, confront the people who are making these jokes. Let them know that their actions are hurtful and unacceptable.
Document Everything: Keep a record of any harassment or bullying that occurs. Screenshots and messages can be helpful if you decide to report it.
Report It: If the harassment continues, consider reporting it to your school’s administration. They should have policies in place to handle bullying.
Focus on Yourself: Surround yourself with supportive friends and engage in activities that make you feel good about yourself.
Remember, this behavior says more about them than it does about you. You deserve to be treated with respect.
