'Social media bully told me to kill myself'
A new survey has revealed a third of young people are worried about returning to school because of bullying.
The charity, Diana Award, also found more than four out of ten children are reporting being bullied every day.
Tom, 17, was a victim of bullying and now works as an anti-bullying ambassador for the charity.
"I'm actually gay, but before I came out someone else attempted to out me by telling everyone," said Tom.
"When I came out, I got an anonymous message on Facebook from an anonymous account, telling me I should go and kill myself."
He told 5 live that he felt "constantly judged" by his peers at school.
