Education for all is a call to action...

"I came out to friends in school about a year and a half ago. It was between me and a few good friends but of course the whole school knew within a couple of days.""I came out to my best friend first and she said she had already thought so anyway and she didn't mind. So I felt great and I thought that everyone else would be fine about it.""I was bullied for over 5 years, the worst was in year 10 when I started my GCSEs. People kind of outed me and then it was hell for months. It got so bad, I was put on anti-depressants and had to see a psychologist."
