Overheard some absolute dickhead today saying she thinks anorexics are an attention seeking waste of time and they just need to eat a burger and let real illnesses get treated. Wasnt gonna post this but its weird that I overheard that today and its actually 5 years ago on this exact date that my innocent diet ended up spiralling into years of issues with food and my body. It riles me up when people turn around and say mental health issues especially EDs are attention seeking, oh yeah because its so fun to count calories to the exact decimal, exercise or walk for miles no matter what the weather, deny yourself treats and just think about food 24/7. All that as well as putting your family and friends who you love so much through heartbreak and hell because the illness just blinds you into thinking that anyone who cares and wants you to get healthy is your enemy. Ive had a few good years at a healthy weight within the past 5 but overall its been horrendous living with this, what it does to your mind is a million times worse than what your physical appearance shows, so physically recovered or not youll never fully get rid of the thoughts. Now tell me thats attention seeking because it seems a whole lot of effort to keep up something like this, its not funny, its not a phase, so keep your stigmatised opinions and shove them where the sun doesnt shine because I am so sick of uneducated people giving their twopence about something they dont know anything about. ugh rant over.
