As you will see in the video bullying is one of the leading reasons given for people taking their lives. I don&#8217;t think people quite understand the severity of it, I certainly didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>If any of you are having suicidal thoughts please let someone know, try to keep away from any technology that the bullies might be able to contact you on. There are things that people can do that will help you.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-199 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/bethanyfoord\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2016\/09\/3043634991_d5df9afdb1_o-300x134.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/bethanyfoord\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2016\/09\/3043634991_d5df9afdb1_o-300x134.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/bethanyfoord\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2016\/09\/3043634991_d5df9afdb1_o.jpg 311w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><em>Ditch the Label<\/em><\/h3>\n<p><em><br \/>\n<\/em>After my last post where I talked about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ditchthelabel.org\/\">Ditch the Label<\/a> page I have also been looking further into their blogging. I wanted to see what they suggest doing to overcome the bullying. I have been looking to see what some of the guys on there did and some of their ways were quite interesting. One of the first blog posts I read was from a man called Ian; he said that while he was at school he was bullied and as he got older he found comfort in talking about his experiences. He now tells everyone and anyone about his experiences with bullying.<\/p>\n<p>As well as the successful stories there were also a few that ended not so well. In one of the blog posts a YouTube star\u00a0was interviewed. She talks about her experiences and thoughts surrounding cyber bullying. She mentions not being able to stick up for herself when she was in school which she found really hard and as a \u00a0result meant that the last resort was to move schools. When there were no more school to run to she had to be home schooled. It&#8217;s a really interesting article you can read and watch the whole thing here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ditchthelabel.org\/eugenia-cooney-interview\/\">Eugenia Cooney<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-226 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/bethanyfoord\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/01\/19664890044_8a55a33f2e_z-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/bethanyfoord\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/01\/19664890044_8a55a33f2e_z-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/bethanyfoord\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2017\/01\/19664890044_8a55a33f2e_z.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So have a watch of the video I made and have a look at Eugenia&#8217;s video.
