I'm sharing this link: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/01/michael-morones-recovery-fund.html#idc-cover
Which is about a young boy who attempted suicide after being bullied for liking My Little Pony.
He survived, but now suffers serious brain damage, and donations are being collected for his family. Please donate if you can, and I'm going to see if I can arrange a charity artwork auction for this poor family.

But I also have something I'd like to say, to every last person out there who can see this.
It is not EVER worth it to commit suicide over the words or bullying of others.
If you take yourself out because of bullies, they will not feel bad, they will not "be sorry", they will have won.
I know how it feels to be bullied. Almost my entire high school hated me, and for reasons some of them couldn't even figure out.
I know how it feels to be suicidal over the words and cruel actions of others, but trust me, that is not how you beat them.
You beat them by living, despite them having given you their worst.
I am not against suicide, under the right situations. Everyone should have the right to exit this life the way they want to. But it's not worth it over bullies.
If you need counseling, or even medication, SEEK IT. There is no shame in finding ways to get by.
Please, never let bullies win. Live, and get even with them by enjoying your life to the fullest, despite them being complete and total dicks.
THANK YOU! <3
I dunno, maybe I'm just the right amount of positive, but I think there are almost always better ways to go. The only kind of suicide that's worth it is if you're already dying and you have no one left.
or if you're a Russian plant bomb about to destroy the US. Then's probably a good time for it too

A child attempting suicide is just horrific. I can't imagine what the poor family is going through.
