Finally Get a great bunch of people around you – find people – one or two or three good reliable friends. Talk to grown-ups who won’t judge or solve but will listen and support. Talk to your barber (see below). Spend less time with online humans and more time with offline humans. When you are online, use good sites to support you - Hector’s House. CALMzone. Childline. NSPCC. Be someone who is one of those good reliable friends to other guys. Be brave.
