I have always had a problem with the way I looked. It just got worse the older I got and the more I got teased. Kids even in public school used to make fun of my weight. The sad thing is I wasn’t very big at all. They used to call me fatty, twinkie(apparently thats what i lived off of) tubby, chubby chicken. So when i was in 5th grade i was tired of them causing me to feel tortured. I basically starved myself…well that got me no where i just passed out a lot. When i did start to eat properly again i had gained weight drastically and the name calling happened again… I really wanted to die…i never really thought about suicide until the 9th grade….then i got into cutting to help cope with the pain. But then i realized that hurting my self isn’t going to help matters. I have lost some weight mainly because I have grown taller…but it still hurts to look in a mirror and see the chubby little kid staring back and thats what i think everyone else sees.
