“We all deal with being unfairly judged. I was once a very happy child that was close to my father and brother.

“Cricket was everything for me but just because I used to wear pant-shirt and play with my neighborhood male friends’ people mocked and started calling me embarrassing names so I decided to make new friends.

“Me and my friend were like close sisters, we shared happiness and sorrow with each other. We did assignments together, because of my helping and caring nature I took care of my friend in her bad times and wanted to help her but people didn’t accept it.

“They said they haven’t seen that kind of friendship where there is so much care so they started talking bad about my character without knowing anything. They not only talked bad about me but also bullied my friend so my friend started ignoring me and then left me.

“I was not that person anymore who could perceive myself nor did my intentions matter. It’s the people who made me socially isolated people don’t realize that their mean words can lead one to depression.

“Once again people decided to judge me and decided that I have become rude and anti-social but in reality I was fighting with depression. Due to depression I no longer have the potential to work; now I just want to distract myself from negative thoughts.

“I isolated myself from everyone so that they would stop judging and talking about me. I just want to take myself out of depression by visiting a therapist otherwise I might attempt suicide.

“Stop judging people: Because you’re the one who can make their life beautiful or destroy their life and make them socially isolated. You decide?”
