deirdreI'll be wearing purple on October 20 on Spirit Day to support acceptance and non-harassment of LGBTQI youth. Not specifically for the six youth named in that linked post, but all LGBTQI folks who have committed suicide due to being bullied.
I've known at least part of the story of some LGBTQI people I've known, and I thank![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rm for sharing her own story in this post.
While I've known several people who've committed suicide, so far as I'm aware, none of them took their own lives for that reason. However, I do have a sense of what that empty hole where a person used to be feels like, so I'll be wearing purple.
