School bullies drove one local teenager to the brink of suicide. Joshua is 17 and was mocked because he suffered from tics. He was later diagnosed with Tourette's and is also autistic. Bullies at school made his life hell for years, taunting him inside school and issuing death threats online and over the phone. It forced him to quit school and be home taught instead. But now Joshua has fought back to beat the bullies and has launched an anti-bullying campaign in a bid to help others.
