Problems and Struggles

Some of the struggles that some kids face in Bell High School is dealing with their sexuality. Many kids are afraid to be themselves and tell the world how they truly feel. They feel like they will not be accepted by society and be hated for being different and for liking things they “shouldn’t.” This make is difficult for them mentally and usually they face it alone. Having to deal with issues like this alone, leads to many issues such as, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, etc. Not only is that the only issue, but also many people deal with sexual abuse. It has come to my attention that many people have had to deal with that. This not only surprised me, but it shocked me. Many people deal with many issues like this but we do not know because they keep it hidden. We do not truly know what they are feeling because they wont speak about it or let anyone know. It is sad but in reality many people face issues everyday, but they are not being heard because they are afraid. Fear keeps people from speaking out.
