Why


Name: Hutch
Stereotype: NO
Victim: YES
Status: Survivor





This is a project I have been fighting with myself over for quite sometime. Should I Do It? Why Should I Do It? No I Shouldn't Do it? the list goes on. Since you are reading this, my choice to do this has been made obvious.  I'm doing this because I can. I'm doing this because I don't like aspects of whats out there and I'm doing this, Because I've been there and I've survived.

I Hutch was bullied not just by my classmates but those in authority. I said I did not agree with a lot of the current projects geared toward bullying and it's truth. Right now if you honestly paid attention to the ones you here about are largely LGBT centric. It's as if only people within the LGBT community will suffer bullying of some sort in school. The truth is everyone can be bullied but not everyone does get bullied.  I have a problem with " It Gets Better" not so much the organization but it's name, it's very wait and see and not very PRO-ACTIVE and I'm not referring to the pimple cream you've got stashed away in your underwear drawer.

There are a lot of movements to END bullying, I've pitched my own bits toward some of these small uprisings on youtube. However you never here anything about how to deal with being bullied and how to deal with bullies when your the one being bullied. So I'll be that one who talks about how to deal with being bullied, how to handle it. Because I've been there. Consider this if you will " Hutch's DeClassified Bullies Survival Guide". I'm no psychologist but if you give me a chance and take me on, I'll give you my TIPS the things that really worked for me and helped me get to where I am.

  1. All respect to you! This is amazing, and I'm going to cheer you on! What you are doing... I can't describe it with words! I just want to hug you and show you how amazing it is that you actually do this! Bullying should be stopped, and for those victims to get help and to see how to handle these things by someone who survived it, is amazing! I'm one of those who survived it too and that's why this means so much to me.
    What you are doing is simply amazing, and I'm saying this because I care about people out there - don't stop this. It is going to save lifes :)

    1. Thank You. Comments like these, they keep me motivated. I'm a realist, everybody is going to get bullied at some point. Bullying to degree prepares you for the real world but learning how to deal with it. Now thats something that can really guide a person through life.
