On the other day, I was telling my friend how thin he was
He had a little lapse of anorexia and didn’t wanna eat, but now he’s so much better. So I just told him “You’re too thin! You should gain a little weight”.
This other guy that was with us, he was the friend of my friend’s uncle said “No, you should not gain weight. You’re fine just like that”.
I didn’t agree with that. The boy is seriously too thin. So I said “I still think you’re too thin”.
And he replied with a smile saying “Thank God, right?”.
I don’t think I can explain the tone he used, but it was like he was saying “thank God I’m thin and not fat like you are”. I know he thinks I’m fat, I’ve seen it in his eyes. He doesn’t think I’m pretty. And when I make jokes about my weight, while my other friends feel bad about it and tell me to shut up, he laughs. Like he really thinks it’s funny that I am this fat. Like he’s better than me just by being thin.
It just hit me today. And I’m sick, so crying will just make things worse. I didn’t feel like eating this morning, but then I had such a big lunch and such a big dinner. I have a sore throat and this makes even harder to purge. I couldn’t do it in normal situations, I obviously can’t do it now.
And while I was in class today, I imagined myself cutting. I imagined all the blood coming from two huge cuts in both of my wrists. I imagined it dropping. And I just wanted to cry.
Why am I so self destructive? I can’t put up with myself.
I’ve killed myself in my mind a thousand times
I just can’t take the next step: doing it for real.
I’m so proud of Demi.
She went through all the shit we are going now. She faked she was alright and suffered for years in silence. And now, looking at this picture, I just cannot think to myself “we all have a chance to be saved”. WE can save ourselves. This hell we’re stuck in won’t last forever. We can seek help. We can get better. But only if we want to. We just have to stay strong and fight it with all we’ve got.
Today I was just fine
I exercised, I took a good shower and I even thought about cutting, but then I said “no, I’m not gonna do that. I don’t need that”, so I didn’t do it.
I left the shower and then I climbed on my bathroom scale, thinking I had lost some weight. I didn’t. I actually gained some.
Then, I broke down.
So I cut. I don’t know if I ever told you guys this, but I’ve never cut myself with a razor, just with any sharp object. I know that if I actually cut with a razor, I won’t control myself, it’ll go too deep and I’ll get too close to death. So I don’t want it.
While I was there, crying, there was just one thing that I could think of: that the only thing I really wanted all my life was to be thin. And I’m not. It feels like I never will be.
So I didn’t really have dinner. I had a banana and some bread. And I will NOT eat anything for the rest of the night, not even if I have to fill my stomach with water. I’ll do it.
All I want is to get thin. Is that so hard? It wasn’t supposed to be.
I just wanna love someone
It could be a guy or a girl, I don’t really care about the gender. I wanna love someone with all my heart. Why can’t I do that? It was supposed to be easy.
My heart is a stone and it’s all my fault.
I’ve been feeling like shit
I was out of town. I was partying, but still I couldn’t stop thinking about how fat I was. And I drank to forget about it, but those thoughts kept haunting me. And I wanted to cut everyday when I was gone. I even took my blade with me, but I didn’t do anything. I just felt like shit. I felt like a fat piece of useless trash. And I keep on feeling like that. It seems like I’m going to feel like that forever. And I hate it.
I did it again
I worked out today, I did a lot of great stuff that would have made myself happy, but I wasn’t happy. So I cut. Again. I was clean for 4 days and now I’m back on zero.
I got a little dizzy at first, but didn’t stop doing it. But, still, I’m doing just little cuts. Today I cut again in the same place I did before, in one of my legs. So I guess people won’t see if I keep cutting in the same spots, right? And specially if they’re small spots. Anyway, I hope tomorrow’s a better day.
So, I’ve cut myself. Again.
After almost 8 months of struggle, almost 8 months clean, I did what I thought I’d never do again: I made two little cuts in each of my legs. I made them little so no one will see them. And I wanna do it again, I wanna cut again tonight.
This is gonna sound extremely sick, but I enjoyed it. I cried when I started cutting, cause I thought I’d go back to that dark place I was, but after that I was smiling. It gave me the feeling that I was missing and I know that it doesn’t matter how many times I try to get out of this, I’ll always be a little scared and self-harmer girl. I’m fucked up. It feels like it’s what I’m supposed to be. And it really scares me that I feel this way cause I don’t know what I might do when only little cuts won’t be enough.
