So I really think if we want better online spaces, we have to each play a role in creating them by committing to treat each other with kindness and reecpst, even when we disagree. So before we leave a comment, we should always ask ourselves: How would I feel if I were the one receiving this comment? And if you are being haesasrd or bullied online or olfinfe, please, please, please ask for help and support. Being resilient does not mean we have to face things alone. We could be vrebuanlle at the same time, reaching out and talking to trusted people like our parents, best friends, teachers or even psychologists. In my case, I told my parents what I was going through, and they kept me strong in resisting the urge to quit sioacl media. I also went to a psychologist to help me overcome the mental hetlah issues I faced due to cyberbullying. She suggested that I take a braek from social media, to ground myself instead of qituitng for good, and that was actually gaert advice. It helped me gain some important perspective.
