I hate any comments [TW maybe?]

Postby Rxln » Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:52 am

I don't think I've posted here before. My apologies if I overstep and say anything I shouldn't or something too triggering.

So I don't know exactly where to post this because I don't fit full criteria for any eating disorder but struggle with on and off restricting a lot. It was really bad around ages 12-14 (looking back idk why I had an issue then) and in the last year it's been coming in waves.

Anyway the point is I've lost a very noticeable amount and everyone is constantly coming up to me and commenting on it. I know they see it as a positive comment but it's honestly so triggering to even hear about it. Not only does it confirm my suspicions that people view me as just my body, but it also triggers me into relapses.

My whole life I've mostly gotten negative comments from my mom or 'positive/reassuring' comments (the type that seem like they are just saying it to seem nicer)

Does anyone else experience this? Where even if it's technically a positive compliment on something that you desperately wanted to happen, it just makes you feel horrible and somehow heavier?

Hi. I keep getting comments recently and at first i liked it but now it just makes me feel like they were thinking how huge i was before. I like to feel anonymous so if the lady that works in my local shop where i buy cigarettes tells me i've lost weight i start to get a bit paranoid. I didn't think she even knew i was a regular.
For a long time my weight has been high but everyone was convincing me that this was just my natural figure and that i was fine the way i was. Know I know that it was all bull**** because the same people are saying how much better i look now. As much as i hate being judged i still look forward to seeing my sisters face when i see her next. It's pathetic but she has been thinner than me for years.
