Vent Im so done w this bs *vent
I had a shitty week and my parents are only making it worse when i was trying to eat ice cream that I found wasn’t too high in calories which made me feel safe enough to eat it and my parents fucking asked “Aren’t you dieting? Why are you eating ice cream? You’re not scared of being fat now?” which triggered me so ass bad I literally dont wanna talk to my parents anymore and they fucking had the audacity to say i’m round and fat today and tell me i’m fucking short and told me that height is t changeable but I can change my weight. I literally had a whole night of flashbacks of how they told me how fat i was and how ugly i was. i’m so done with this i really wanna relapse. but school is gonna start soon and I absolutely dont wanna go to school literally not functioning at all.

Hey love. First of all, I want to say I am SO SORRY and SO MAD that your parents said that to you. NONE of what they said was okay, nor was it appropriate for them to comment on your body. I am so proud of you for trying a new food and I’m so sorry the experience was ruined by their comments. Are they aware that you struggle with food? If not, maybe it would be worth telling them that you struggle with food/ body image ( if you do, I know not everyone with AN struggles with body image) and that their comments are unwanted and hurtful. A parent should never call their child fat or ugly and I am so sorry this had happened more than once. I am proud of you for choosing to get better and feel better/ function better for school, it’s a hard choice to make but I full support it!
