its very hard to deal with when you're 12 years old. being called all these names...and i wasnt even big when i was 12...i never really started gaining a lot of weight until i started with the meds. i've always been chubby...but not big like i am now...even though i still dont think im *that* big. i dont have the opportunity to reject the idea that im mentally ill. if i want it to change, i have to acknowledge and accept it. im doing much better now with meds and therapy...but its been a very long difficult journey. and its alright...i dont take any offense, people that havent been there just really dont understand at all. unless you've gone through mental illness...its really hard to understand what a person goes thru. i wanted to die because i was different. and when you're 12...all you want is to fit in with your friends. being different is really hard at that age...and being made fun of relentlessly because of it makes it 100 times worse.Miss England Is A Size 16. You Know Most People With Mental Illnesses Reject The Idea That They're Mentally Ill. No Offence, But Why On Earth Would You Want To Die Because Your Friends Were Hot And You Werent. I Understand You Were Teased But The Reason People Tease Others Is To Make Them Feel Bad So You'd Be Doing What They Want By Fealing Bad.
And I Dont Know About You But I Was Taught All Those Things. So Anybody That Wasn't I'm Sorry, I Feel Bad For You.
