Most days I heard, "Hey Fatty!" more than I heard, "Hello!" Most days I looked in the mirror at my biggest enemy. Most days I just cried.
I never understood how someone could just look at me and tell me that I'm fat. I am not blind. I KNOW THAT I'M FAT and I don't need you to point it out for the 20th time today!!! I really do know that I'm fat and I wish I could change it.
I tried to change it. By starving myself. By forcing my fingers to the back of my throat. By exercising until I passed out.
I GET IT! I'M FAT! Please stop reminding me! Please stop haunting my thoughts with those hateful words! Please think before you speak! Please!
I realized that starving myself wasn't helping and I was just in pain because of how hungry I was.
I realized that making myself ***** wasn't helping either, I would just cry because I knew that the food in my stomach was getting absorbed.
I realized that exercising until I passed out wasn't right, but I wasn't going to stop.
The suicide attempts. Just because I wasn't thin enough. Just because I let myself eat more that one rice cake. Just because no one believed me. Just because I hated myself. Just because of you!
I get it! I really get it! I'm fed up!
I am enough just the way I am! I am enough no matter what you think! I am enough because I'm me!
So please, stop calling us "FAT", we know and we see us even bigger than you see us. Just stop. We are nice and friendly, just give us a chance!
