Anyone can suffer from some mental disturbance or problem, but what we see on the face is very deceiving, so when someone opens up, please do not turn him away by saying that he is lying And pretending to attract attention. In hindsight, as a child who survived bullying in school, I have to say that bullying doesn’t just come from classmates and coworkers; This can also come from teachers; After having an anxiety attack, it came down to how I was being treated in the classroom. Thus, my ultimate aim or plan for the future is to encourage child-friendly education without any gender identity discrimination.
