An Open Letter To The People Who've Called Me "Piggy"

You've called me "Piggy" to my face, behind my back, on social media, and to your friends. You've made oinking noises in the hallways as I was minding my own business, just trying to get an education. You've sent me anonymous comments on social media, telling me that I am worthless and ugly.


I wonder if you knew that I used to go home from school every day and cry in my room, feeling alone and scared.
I wonder if you knew that I used to pretend that I was sick so I could stay home from school so I wouldn't hear your "jokes".
I wonder if you knew that I hated my self from head to toe.
I wonder if you knew that I contemplated suicide every day of my life for three years.


You degraded me. You made me feel like I was living a life that wasn't worth living. You put an idea in my head that if were to leave and never come back, nobody would care.


However after finally feeling alive again after years in depression, I've came to realize that I'm not the problem at all, it's the people without any morals or care in the world for who they are hurting.


Thank you for making me realize that I am a gem in a world littered with rocks.


So go ahead, call me Piggy. They're cute as hell, anyways.
