I had no worries about my looks etc until I started high school where I slimmed down to 11st (I'm that now) and 5ft 12. Brownish hair, finally I have longish hair actually (Like... Louis Tomlinson's style from a year or so ago) and finally wearing clothes which are fashionable and nice (I never took pride in myself until pretty recently)

I recently finished Year 11 and my GCSE's and I'm nervously waiting on the results. I currently live with just my mum, brother and sister. My dad doesn't live with us anymore. For the past year, I've had an ongoing battle with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder after an event which basically knocked me really badly. I'm getting over it and to be honest I really do think I am now.

I never really made that many friends in school until around Year 9 where I latched onto a small group where we stayed together and we are still best friends now. I came out as gay to select few in March and then eventually to everybody at the beginning of May. Honestly, my life isn't bad. I get around and I enjoy it. I aspire to be either a producer for television or film, an actor or set designer.

My current job... I don't have one. I run my own BB website which is such an amazing experience, you see Big Brother through a different light it's great.

Your like me with the whole appearance thing! I'm so happy your coming out was good too - it should be made to be such a big thing!! - Maybe in the future you can speak about your incident and maybe inspire others! Im sure your GCSE's are just fine, you have over a month till the results, so get with your friends and enjoy your summer! Stop worrying mr! x
