The petite girl over there. She looks like she has a perfect life, the perfect friends, and the perfect body. Inside she is struggling with an eating disorder, starving herself until she sometimes feels like she can’t even lift up her own hand.
The girl over there, with her makeup looking flawless, and looking like she has never had one skin problem in her life. Her friends call her ugly for her acne, so she spends an hour every time she has to be face to face with others, perfecting makeup to hide her skin.
The one over there, with the smile, smeared across his face, laughing with his friends. He has depression and is struggling, even though no one knows it, not his parents, or his friend since kindergarten.
The one over there, him jokingly teasing his friend. His father was abusing his mother last night, and he had to break them up, before finally calling 911.
