Person A: Whoah! Your muscles are huge!
Person B: *sips energy drink* Thanks, it’s from carrying emotional baggage and repressed trauma.

My babies. I love them so.
please don’t tell people “wow you lost weight you look great!” especially when you don’t really know WHY they lost weight. this fucking makes you want to die if you have an eating disorder—it implies that you losing weight is necessary to look good in other people’s eyes, so you start obsessing about your weight more. it happened to me when I lost weight coming off antipsychotics which made me gain a lot of weight. I was anorexic as a child so you can imagine how compliments over losing weight affect me. there are a lot of reasons people lose or gain weight. complimenting someone on gaining weight isn’t a good idea either, because again, you can’t truly know whether or not the person is confident about that. sometimes people with eating disorders will pretend they enjoy reaching a more healthy weight after being underweight while secretly wanting to restrict. so what compliments should you give on someone’s body image, including people with eating disorders gaining weight? something like “you look really pretty and vibrant”. that’s not all obviously, just what came to my head. personally if someone told me I didn’t look sick I’d take it positively.

In case you missed this heart warming exchange
my friend works for a tech service and is one of those guys you call to help you with tech issues and he walks you through them and even can like take over your computer to help and ect. anyways i will never stop thinking about how he told me everyone in his company fears west virginia like when they get a call and see its a west virgnia area code they hate answering bc thats where they get the wildest calls from.
One time thousands of people were out of internet and they were all calling in to complain and he had to tell multiple people “im sorry theres some guy with a shot gun driving around and shooting out the internet boxes there is literally nothing we can do. the police are trying to catch him.” and like. people wouldnt take this as an answer theyd be like well can you fix it and hes like. theres. theres a guy with a shotgun. thats a little out of our area of expertise.
whenever anyone mentions that they were talking abt me I get this weird but kind of comforting feeling that I exist to a person outside of our own relationship,, like?? u talked abt me??? u thought of me when I wasn’t there????? i exist to u when I’m not around????!!!!!!?
hello kids I just want to let you know that your overthinking mind is lying to you and that you are absolutely completely fine and literally no one cares about that one awkward thing you did today that you are constantly replaying in your mind ok you’re perfect love you
