Mr Haworth said victims were increasingly opting to deal with online harassment independently, which could cause the onset of depression and anxiety.

To reduce the effects of cyberbullying, Mr Haworth developed the Haworth Music School Tour, where he addresses the issue and how he overcame it as a teenager with musical performances.

"Having performed at schools across the Illawarra, I saw firsthand what students were going through," Mr Haworth said.

"Heaps of students were really suffering from the effects of cyberbullying, and needed a way to deal with the problem.

"For many of them, my music was a way to escape, but many needed something more."

After months visiting schools to spread anti-bullying messages, Mr Haworth launched the documentary Generation Change in 2014.

"It really opened up people's eyes to what was going on with young people online.

"We live in a world now where it's so easy to type something online and forget about it, but for the victim it can have a lasting impact.

"The documentary really showcases that, which was confronting for some," he said.

Mr Haworth encourages victims to speak out.

"People who are being harassed online are not alone and I really urge people to speak to someone about what they are going through.

"Communication is key, and I really encourage kids to bounce not break."
