I just learned not to worry about it, be a little stronger

Since I was about three or so I was bullied and teased for anything and everything probably because I wore glasses or the clothes I wear or for liking anime or reading. Anything you could think of I was teased about. It inspired me to be stronger and not worry about it. Not worry about it too much. I still sometimes think about it. I feel like people are always looking at me, always watching me. I just learned not to worry about it, be a little stronger than I used to be as a child. Instead of me crying about it. 

I am dressed as Sith from Star Wars. I like black, it’s dark. It’s an opposite side of me. It’s something that’s more flattering.

I used to have mini little stuffed animals, the ones with the keychain. I just thought they were cute. The big ones my dad would buy and I would play wrestling with them. One was a life-size monkey. I would wrestle it, tackle it, do chokeholds. It was fun. It was my way of having fun. I didn’t have to always go out or be around people.
