"Are you sure you're supposed to be in high school?"
"Something is wrong with you, I need to get a check for you."
"Something is wrong with you."
"You're a goofy."
"You should kill yourself."
"You're pathetic."
"You're a loser."
"You ain't S**t."
"You're stupid."
"You're dumb."
"You're slow."
"You're weird."
"You're annoying."
"You won't be successful."

"I wish I met your friend before I met you."
"You're draining."
"Your feelings are negative."
"You're unlovable."

"You're worthless."
"You don't hold any value in my life."

Words hurt.
Words are powerful.
Words stick.

Words do hurt.
They do damage.
Words sting like hell.-J.S.
