This just breaks my heart to see what some humans have become today... every time you go to the news there is always something tragic thing that has happened. Rarely will there ever be an act of kindness that will be recorded in the media. Bullying is a big issue of today and it needs to be stopped. However, there is not much anybody can do to stop it. A lot of kids go through bullying these days, so remember that you are not alone. Some kids actually commit self harm because of this issue. Only when something big happens, it is reported in the news. You think a lot of bullying has been recorded and reported in the news? That's just a quarter of what is actually happening. It's just a sick way for kids to verbally or physically make other people lose it.

I know it is hard to deal with this. I have never had an experience with bullying because I have been homeschooled my entire life. However, my brothers have been bullied earlier in there lives and were pulled from school because of its severity. They have been homeschooled ever since then. I recommend you to tell a teacher, principal, or parent about this issue before this gets out of hand. People may call you names for telling somebody, but don't worry about it. :)

Drop your friends if they are laughing at you; they aren't real friends. The whole reason one has friends is for comfort, or for a shoulder to cry on. A friend is for good company.

I got some videos for you to watch to make you feel better:

Remember that you are an amazing person, and that those bullies feel weak, so they want to pick on somebody to feel at least some power. Keep your head held high and be yourself. :)

Best of luck.
