[Bullying] You were strong but psychological pain can be worse than physical pain
Last night, when I was trying to sleep I saw the news that Daisy Coleman, the protagonist of Netflix documentary “Audrey and Daisy”, committed suicide, at 23 years old. Honestly, to say I was in shock and truly sad. Audrey had committed suicide at 16 years old, a few days after the assault. Daisy continued to endure and try to gain justice of what occurred to them. Justice that never came.
Although not knowing personally Daisy only through the documentary, news, and interviews, she was in visible pain despite being surrounded by her lovely family. This pain was seen in her eyes, the way she talked, and her posture.
It seemed that she gathered her strength to talk about what happened to her and to be an activist against bullying towards sexually assaulted girls and women, but she was fighting her demons at the same time.
To know more about Daisy and how bullying can destroy lives, I advise watching the documentary “Audrey and Daisy”, which I consider important for nowadays parents.
My deepest sympathies go towards the family.
