Chaz Bono, who came out as a transgendered man a year and a half ago, is lending his story to the It Gets Better Project, aimed at curbing the alarming amount of recent suicides by gay youth.

Chaz speaks about having felt like he was "different" as a child, and how he still dealt with those issues as an adult, but that if he didn't get through it, he would have missed out on the best times of his life! Inspiring!
