I wish I was dead. I’ll never find happiness and I’ll never be loved or wanted or needed by anyone. I can’t find my blades but I do have a pocket knife, I wonder if it will do the same. I guess there’s only one way to find out

Spoiler: TW: Discussions on eating and gaining weight

I hope no one takes this the wrong way, which is why I've already put a tw but I'm going to explain the tw a little more to make sure no one who could be harmed by this reads ahead. I'm going to be discussing eating too much and gaining weight in a negative context. I am well aware of the body positivity/neutrality movements and I do not believe anyone should be insulted or mistreated based on their weight. However, due to my life experiences, the idea of gaining weight is frightening for me.

I don't want to talk too much on the backstory as it isn't my story to tell, but what's important to know is most women in my family are classified as overweight or obese, and eating addiction/overreating is a common trend. Because of this, I've been raised heavily with the mindset of eating responsibily. My mum has raised me with the mindset of only eat what you can stomach, and there is no point eating more than you need. Only eat when you're hungry etc etc. I think these are very important mindsets when it comes to eating and I'm greatful for these.

I've also never been much of a foodie. I was still eating off the children's menu at my favourite restaurants into my teen years, there was a period of my life I was only eating 2 meals a day as opposed to 3. I've never been a snack person, basically sticking to 3 meals a day. I've also been an extremely fussy eater for most of my life, though within the last year I've been trying to increase my meal options. So what's the problem?

Well the issue is despite the fact right now I'm a healthy weight, I do not live a healthy lifestyle. I do not walk or exercise much, and most of the meals I eat in a week are not healthy. My favourite food is also chocolate. Despite not being much of a foodie, these factors scare me about whether I'll end up like the rest of my family. I've seen the negative impacts of their weight on their life and I don't want to suffer the same way they do. The reason this is scaring me a lot right now is because I've noticed I've been eating more snacks than usual recently. I can't tell whether it's stress eating due to my exams, or whether this is the result of me being older and knowing my mum has less input on what I can and can't eat. This September I'm leaving home and will be entirely responsible for what I eat, so I'm scared when she can't monitor me at all anymore, I'll get into bad eating habits.

I'm not really looking for advice... just wanted to rant about my fears

I know you said you're not looking for advice, but you know I gotta give it.
Gaining weight when you go off to uni is a normal thing. Like you said, you have more freedom over what you eat and it can get out of control. It's called the freshman 15 for a reason, and nobody can really avoid it. I mean it happened to me my freshman year. But eventually I was able to regulate my diet and get back to a normal weight for me. I think you have a bit of an advantage because of those mentalities you have, eating until full etc. I think you'll be able to maintain what is healthy for you a lot more than others. I 100% think the increased snacking is due to the stress of your exams, which is completely understandable. I know it's a huge worry for you due to your family history. But I think you're on the right track based on what your mom taught you and your willingness to expand your horizons in terms of food. And you know what behaviors to look out for and stop if you do find yourself living unhealthily. I know it's very scary, but every part of life and growing up is scary, including our bodies changing.
You are amazing and I know that you'll be able to defy expectations in all aspects of your life bestie.

call me selfish and a bad person
there goes all my trust-
thank you for that </3

 

[izyun]

I was told i look skinner, thats good, my diet seems to be working, im happy

 

[AikkizOfficial]

I know it was fake,
I know it was just to make our crushes jealous,
but..
I kind of fell for him.
When I told him he completely bashed me.
"I don't date dark-skinned, fat, short girls with acne. Why do you think I chose her instead of you?" He said.
"I knew you would fall for me, you're way too easy. That's why I chose you. It would seem realistic."
It hurt when he said this. It really hurt a lot...
Ever since I've tried to forget having a crush on anyone, my original crush has been staring at me a lot.
I know I shouldn't fall in love again. It'll hurt my heart.
Nevertheless, I think I'm falling again
Ugh.

The way my mood lifts when i watch the Korean Comic or Kpop fancams
The way my mood lifts when he texts me
The way my mood drops when i realize we're distancing.
