Peer Leader:
Miriam E. || Prague, Czechoslovakia

I've always wanted to be able to speak out my own thoughts, while having the opportunity to help others. Ever since kindergarten, my family and I have been moving a lot. I've be running away from bullying and negative thoughts. I've been chasing the "perfect body" type... It took me years to stop crying at night and be able to look myself in the mirror and feel satisfied. For many many years I felt that I was missing something, that I was not good enough or worthy of anyone's attention or love. I had to go through this all alone because I felt that no one could ever understand the way I felt. However, upon discovering TeenzTalk and finding others who are similar to me, I felt the desire to share my story. I wanted to share my story as my peers have done before me, in order to make others know that no matter how they feel, there will always be someone out there who supports, understands, and believes in them. I want to be a part of this team so I can help other teens find their unique path to happiness... To find love in the simple things and find relief in their heart.
