“I guess Twitter is the first thing that has been attractive to me as social media. I never felt the least draw to Facebook or MySpace.

“Having someone in your class call you fat, ugly, too tall and so on, you start to think all those things about yourself. And if you're like me, those words are played on repeat inside your head. When I was at home, I felt loved and safe. My sisters were always a safe haven for me. I knew they would always play with me and make me feel like I was one of them.

Maybe half of it is wrong, and half of it is correct, and a lot of it is exaggerated.
