17-year-old Carlos Vigil from Albuquerque, N.M., committed suicide Saturday. Before he did it, he left a heartbreaking note on his Twitter account.
“The kids in school are right, I’m a loser, a freak and a fag,” said Vigil.
Vigil, who would have been a high school senior next year, was actually an anti-bullying advocate. However, his own struggle became too much, according to his mother.
From KRQE:
His mom said it started when he was at least 8 years old.
“He had this lunchbox, a smiley face lunchbox, and people thought it was the funniest lunchbox ever, and they made fun of him for it,” Jacqueline said. “They grabbed it on the school bus and just threw it on the floor and broke it. It’s just little things like that.”
According to updates on Vigil’s Twitter account, his family donated his organs.
This is the full note he posted:
