My opinion on the Nyxha drama

Instructions

I can understand why people are upset. If the accusations are true, then the behavior absolutely isn't okay, and it shouldn't be encouraged. At the same time, I'd like to offer another perspective. If Nyxha is a younger user, it's worth remembering that children often imitate personalities they see in media. They're still figuring out who they are, and sometimes they'll copy characters they think are "cool" without fully understanding the consequences of acting that way in real life. If she's trying to imitate a character like Spinel, she may have thought that being cold, calculating, or always in control made her seem stronger or more interesting. To explain why I think this is possible, I'll share something a little embarrassing about myself. When I was nine, I was bullied a lot because I had very strong emotions. At the time, nobody knew I was autistic. When another autistic girl joined my school, I made the terrible decision to copy the personality of a mean, confident diva from a book. I thought that if I acted tougher, people would finally like me, stop seeing me as "the crybaby," and I'd be able to hide my own insecurities. Looking back, I realize that's how a lot of bullying starts—it often comes from someone trying to cover up their own struggles. That didn't make me real friends. It only pushed people away. Ironically, I started making genuine friends when I stopped pretending to be someone else. People liked me because I was being myself. That's why I believe this kind of behavior shouldn't be excused, but it also shouldn't be treated like someone is beyond help. If Nyxha is young, there's still plenty of time to learn from these mistakes and grow into a better person. Children make poor decisions sometimes, and what's important is whether they choose to learn from them. If you're someone in her life who genuinely knows her offline, I hope a trusted adult is aware of what's going on and can help her work through it. Support from parents, teachers, counselors, or other trusted adults can make a huge difference. Speaking from experience, counseling helped me become a much healthier person, and I'm incredibly grateful for that. And if Nyxha happens to read this: You don't have to be someone you saw on TV or online to be interesting. You don't have to act cold or hurt other people to be respected. Being yourself might feel scary, but it's also how you make real friends—the kind who like you for who you actually are, not for a character you're pretending to be. I hope you take this as an opportunity to grow. Everyone makes mistakes, but not everyone chooses to learn from them. I genuinely hope you do. Have a stellar day!
