This story is about myself 😢 Albert Georgina
Have you ever felt useless?
Have you ever felt abandoned?
Well I have experience that over and over again 😢😢
I used to be bold, outspoken, cheerful, lively and never intimidated but all that changed.
It started with bullying then body shaming then making me look useless in front of everyone 😢.
It was soo bad that sometimes I would be sitting down and maybe you drank garri, you can just rinse the cup and pour it on my head.
I kept mute, not because I was dumb but I was physically weak. I wasn't good at fighting like the others sooo I couldn't talk or express myself.
Some would say "go and report to the teacher" but I did and was ignored. Why?
Because I am poor and I am reporting someone who pays school fees before the term thinks of resuming🤣🤣🤣
Stupid me.
Either they say I smelt or I didn't brush my teeth well or I was a prostitute, throwing myself on the boys and pretending to be innocent.
It got worst when I reached SS class😢😢😢, the bully became intensed that my school back became stool for every one to sit on. I never said anything
I kept it within myself.
So peace would rein.
Body shaming was worst, I was depressed and my family couldn't really give me food to eat so my feminine growth became slower than usual
I was drained but physically and mentally. They would keep picking on my size and look.
I couldn't tell my parents because they would never understand 😢
And didn't want them to worry too much because of me. They were already going through HELL to raise me. So I carried my cross myself.
I became a totally introvert, a coward that only talks on phone and my sense of humour depreciated 😢😢. At some point I started considering sucide, but I looked at my mom in the kitchen, sweating, struggling even when she was tired to feed me, I look at my siblings smiling genuinely at me. This set of people loved me and their love was enough.
I then made a promise to myself to make it in life so this set of people would suffer no more. I started reading, avoided staying in the class for too long.
Now I am in the University of Lagos.
I honestly avoid having female friends because of experience, not because I am loose or any thing. We don't protect each other and we don't really support each other.
I want to be a better person ☺️🙂
It would soon be a thing of the past
I would gain my confidence back
Please help me engage 🙏
I can't do with all of you
