Description Stop trying to force-feed me:
I don't want to eat.
Don't tell me I'm skinny
when I'm not.
Don't tell me I'm unhealthy.
This is my body,
not yours,
and it's doing just fine.
Do you know what it's like?
To look in the mirror
and feel disgust?
Look at you, you fat bitch.
No one will ever want you.
You'll never be thin enough.
Put on a baggy shirt to hide your huge gut, you whore.
Do you know what it's like?
To step on the scale?
Hoping,
praying,
wishing
that you dropped those two pounds?
Eighty pounds?
Is that really the best you can do?
Your thighs are repulsive.
How did you get so fat?
Lose. More. Weight.
Do you wake up each morning
hoping your stomach shrank a little more?
So the pain won't be as bad?
That tempting void,
begging for food.
What do you think of
when you reach for an apple?
Don't do it, you food slut.
You'll gain back all that weight you lost.
You'll be even bigger.
Everyone already thinks you're a fucking whale.
Stop looking at me with pity in your eyes.
Stop pretending to be my friend.
Stop telling me I'm pretty.
I know I'm fat.
Why else would I be doing this?

Oh I thought it was the other way o-o still very well writen.

XD I just searching for those who feel this way (anorexic or soft, both need to learn they were already perfect no matter what others say, and that its wrong to feel bad for the beuty they already have and are losing with the lies people yell at them) o.o very nice writing.

Are you annorexic?
I was before. I had no idea what went through someone's mind when they were annorexic, though, beause this isn't at all why I did it. I mean, I knew they hated their bodies and that's why, but I haden't thought about it in a way that would really impact me like this. Fantastic job.

About three years ago I sort of fell into anorexia, so to speak, as a symptom of my depression. It didn't start out as a self-hatred, but turned into one. But that was just my experience

cooki-la In reply to KeepersKeep [2010-08-19 19:06:11 +0000 UTC]

Ah. Mine was never really a self-hatred. It was more of a desire to be self-destructive. I dunno. That's sad. :c I'm sorry for ya~

I think we've all felt a little like this at some point standing on a scale.
I wish people weren't so cruel so people suffering from this wouldn't have to feel that way.
Amazing job.

I tried to make sure that people could relate to this, although it's mostly from personal experience. I know lots of people who have suffered from similar experiences though.
Thanks so much!

I have a relative who's problem isn't "fat" it's "healthy". She's determined to eat only healthy foods an in the process is killing herself.

KeepersKeep In reply to 54viruses [2010-08-11 05:37:43 +0000 UTC]

The obsession with being "thin and healthy" is a deadly one. I'm sorry to hear about your relative. If it's possible, I highly recommend that someone bring her to a nutritionist who would be able to help.

54viruses In reply to KeepersKeep [2010-08-11 14:01:22 +0000 UTC]

Unfortunately that's not going to help, she is seeing a nutritionist. He never argues with her unless she changes her diet to something immediately life threatening.

KeepersKeep In reply to 54viruses [2010-08-11 17:12:03 +0000 UTC]

I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully (soon) she'll realize the danger in what she is doing and check herself in to a hospital that can help her. The worst part about these situations is that you can't help someone who doesn't think they need it.

I think in today's society a lot of people think like that. I know I do some days. And it's sad that from a young age it's nailed into a child's head that skinny is beautiful and fat is not.
They're are people who fuel those thoughts of "omg, you're so fat." Then they're are people who say "love your body," and I say back, "easy for you to say with your small waist."
It's so easy to give into those thoughts with all the skinny celebrities showing their bare asses, and the skinny chicks at school calling you fat. I think they're should be more overweight role models around so no one has to feel like fat is ugly.

KeepersKeep In reply to tdiva94 [2010-08-11 05:36:33 +0000 UTC]

This poem came from personal experience, and looking back it's easy for me to see that I was sickly thin, gaunt, and wasting away, but at the time it was impossible. Even "thin" people don't feel thin. I was never overweight to begin with - but the mirror said otherwise. I still struggle with it. I hope the media's obsession with being skinny ends, I really do, but the message is already burned in my brain.

oh my! I so feel like that everytime I have to face the weightscale, or everytime I go to sleep and fear the morning. the worst is when they tell you you're slimmer and it's so not true.
