What's up with the pills?
Unless you have a serious medical condition, you will eventually need to learn to manage this on your own.

You really can do it.

They are anti-depressants. I have depression and have since I was 10. I have a broken brain. It does not make enough seritonin/dopamine...whatever the hell. The meds help. With the meds I can do things like go to the grocery store and have friends and go see movies and sleep at night.

You cannot THINK your way out of depression and yes I get lots of exercise and all that shit.

It is a PHYSICAL PROBLEM. You can't think your way out of cancer.

And I am over the grossly thin commment it was just that she wouldn't let it go.

I know people mean well when they suggest brain issues can be fixed without meds. Some can. Some can't.

Mine are not just a matter of low self esteem or anything like that.

Everyone's body is different. I'm 5'8" and 110lbs, which is supposed to be pretty badly underweight, yet I'm active and healthy and eat as much as anyone I've ever met. I've had this body type my whole life. Still, plenty of people have tried to tell me I'm underweight.

You're healthy. You feel good. Just try not to let their comments get to you.

Sorry, from what you said in your original post, I assumed the welbutrin is a diet pill.

These damned torture devices have been in my mouth for 2 years and I probably have one more to go.

Listen kiddies...don't wait until you are 40 to get braces. It doesn't go as fast.

God, I hate this thread. I can be such a whiny defensive person sometimes. But this stupid thing with the girl at the party was just the final straw. My Mom tells me all the time how BAD I look and my husband has started to nag at me daily.

It's starting to freak me out. The comments not the weight loss. I haven't weighed this much since I was 18.

But I am not starving or puking. Just not snacking or eating more than just enough to make me full. That's all. It's just a hastle to eat.

But this thread sounds bad. It's like poor poor me I am thin. So I haven't really mentioned it to anyone since most everyone I know is struggling to lose weight. I have been for most of my life and then it just kind of happens to me accidentally and I am bitching about it!?

I guess I am just trying to figure out if I am fucked up because my husband is wanting me to gain some weight. Mom says I look bad and friends are telling me I look gross.

Hell, you could be like me and have huge weight fluctuations on a regular basis. I have to keep clothes around that fit me at 220 lbs and 180 lbs.

i mean you probably aren't eating enough since you don't want to deal with food getting stuck in your teeth. Why don't you just drink some milkshakes once in a while if you're concerned you are lookin hungry. those aren't so bad, at least you get some protein and vitamin d which is good. oh and calcium, also good!

yeah i just realized if yer not eating enough yer probably not getting enough nutrients so yer getting skinnier. Just eat things that are high in vitamins, and try to have something high in fat/protein once in a while. I think milkshakes, smoothies, things like that will help make up for the nutrient loss at least, which is of course more important than whatever yer weight is.

these are two sides of the same coin, though. anyone who doesn't understand that it is simply WRONG offer unsolicited commentary on another person's body, whether fat or thin, is a complete tool.

again - if you feel you are healthy...tell people just back off. if you feel that you have something to worry about, talk to your health care practioner. never mind what anyone else says. they are projecting their own personal issues onto you and disguising it as concern for your health (and not very well if they are saying shit like "ew, you look gross."

)

There is a girl at work who has peroxide blonde hair, big tits, a fucking huge tattoo above her arse which you can see when she bends over and exposes a gap of flesh between her trousers/skirt and top, and a REALLY big chunky belly which she doesn't care about & is accentuated by the tight tops she always wears. She's loud, in-your-face, often wears too much make-up & ridiculous mini skirts and will suprise you with her in-depth scientific knowledge due to having a first class degree in chemistry, and I fucking love her (but, of course, she has a partner, so it's just workplace flirting and nothing more).

My point? I really like this girl because of her brashness/confidence/wit - her big tits & belly actually have nothing to do with it (despite my avatar, honest). You should hear the awful comments people make about this girl, but SHE DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT BECAUSE SHE IS HAPPY WITH HERSELF and exudes a cheerful confidence, which is why I like her so much. Anyway Ms Sparkle, I don't know who you are, but I'm prepared to bet you look fucking gorgeous, fat or thin. It's easier said than done, especially if (like me) you are a bit of a worrier, but I'd say adopting a bit of my friend's 'This is how I look, I'm happy & fuck you if you don't like it' confidence might be the way to go.

Yeh I can totally relate to this. I saw some old colleagues the other day and they said that I just looked too muscular and too hunky these days.

I went home and cried myself to sleep. Sometimes this body can be a curse.

From what I can gather Sparks we are both too sexy for non lips never mind this thread.

Ignore the haters and run away with me to Kenya where we can l;ive out the rest of our days at a place more suited to our gorgeousness: THE GIRAFFE MANOR!

Thank you Ms C. You're such a cool person.

If we could all have this attitude it would be wonderful. I think the bulk of us have self esteem issues tho. Sadly.
