I didn’t see it coming, I didn’t even know what trolling was, wasn’t even aware of it. I was this girl who had come 100-200 followers and I was following some 400 people. I was just that girl. To one point I was body shamed and they were talking about my personality, my character, my family, my school, my upbringing and all that. I remember all of this happening and the first time it happened I was like why is there so much negativity.”
