Cyberbullying happens on a daily basis and it can affect anyone, even celebrities.
Maya Jama has received plenty of negative comments online throughout her career.
She gives some advice on how you can deal with it.
First things first, remember that you are not alone and that being bullied is by no means your fault. There is no reason for saying nasty things online, but when someone behaves that way, this says more about them than you. As Maya says, "nice people are not horrible to random people online."
Another way Maya tackles online hate is by trying not to give it too much attention. People will always have an opinion on what you post online, and it’s not in your power to change that. However, you can control the way you react to it. You can get angry or you can continue with your day and focus on the things you love to do and the people who support you.
