Hello everyone, my name is Heather and I found Amanda Todd's story today and I cannot express enough my deep rooted emotions that pull me so tightly to this terrible tragedy... I call it that, because it is. A 15 year old child, gone, because of hurtful, disrespectful people. I am here because I went through similar situations and to this day, still have moments of strong anxiety and mild depression because of things that happened. I wasn't exploited like she was, nor as harshly bullied, but I have hurt myself before and have tried to leave this world before... Thankfully, unlike Amanda (sadly), I did have friends who came to my aid and saved me. Helped me find happiness, and now I'm better. I still have moments where I struggle and my mind finds its way back to the dark hole in my mind that gives me depressive comfort, but I get up again and smile, truly smile. I am here, to be a friend to those who need, and to also have comfort from others when I need. I can't believe its only been a few days since she left and it hurts, very much that this happened. It hurts to know that I wasn't there to catch her before she fell... I understand what she was going through... I could have picked her up, but I wasn't there. It kills me. She was so young, so beautiful. Such a soul that could have grown from this girl. But so many hateful people. SO many judges and disrespectful people. I have a 16 month old son... I get so scared of the world he's gonna grow up in... this nasty world. Anyways, I just wanted to say hi, and to let everyone know I'm here for you and I hope you'll be here for me too. Thank you. <3 xoxo RIP Amanda Todd.
