Down In The Dumps

Dec 14, 2009 19:36

I don't like being here even more now. My grandmother won't look me in the eye because she hates my hair color. She also hates the lip ring, and she's barely talked to me. I have to start the conversation with her, and even than she doesn't look at me ( Read more... )

Who said I had an eating disorder?

Than again...I don't know if I do.

There's a difference between not eating from stress and not eating from poor self image.
Also, the first time my grandfather saw me with my lip stud in he yelled across the room "What's on your face?!" And kept on looking over and shaking his head at me the rest of the day, so I can relate. I think part of it is they don't realize that it's not necisarily permanent. If we take it out, it'll close up.

My grandmother looked at me this morning, and held a conversation with me. Of course it was, doesn't that make your face sore? My answer, Yes, a little. Her comment, "Well you should consider taking it out." Mine, "No. I just got it pierced. I'm not taking it out." She shut up and I left for work. Guess it wasn't very productive. Oh well...I like it. I'm sticking with it. After all, you've only got one body and one skin.

Yeah, well at times I question my eating. I want to gain weight, but subconsciously (I think) I'm scared to get to a size three. I do not want to be fat. I don't get, aside from the people with medical issues, how you can let yourself get like that. I just don't understand it. The most I've done was skip meals as punishment. Like if I felt I fucked up, I'd skip a meal.
