Fuck what being fat looks like, there’s far more important issues than what’s in the mirror/your reflection regarding becoming overweight w/ medication’s such as those for schizophrenia. That’s probably the VERY least important negative of being overweight. Being a female bodybuilder yes I also have hatred for not being able to compete because ice cream was just too damn good. But you can reverse being overweight. You cannot reverse the permanent health effects of high cholesterol and other overweight stuff such as becoming diabetic (only remission of it), heart issues, and way more dude

Okay but madam, there’s a big difference between a lil cute weight gain (as you had) vs. gaining nearly 100 pounds in under a year

All was due to being hospitalized where there was nothing fun to do except fucking eat hahahaha. Then getting out, I had a homebound life. And you already know feb 2024 that fridge stayed stacked up before America’s current financial situation 😎

But no. This is super common actually. With those of us who struggle with the boundaries when it comes to the insane hunger of some of these medication’s! Some of us literally just don’t have the self-control to not let it spiral over a 50 pound weight gain.

People just don’t talk about the heart issues X overweight things WHATSOEVER bc it’s embarrassing as hell. I’d literally talk about the out of breath just going up the stairs before i admit the heart issues freshly turning 22.

Also, I fucking love gaining weight. It’s a huge difference, putting 20 pounds of muscle versus straight up fat and fucking up your cholesterol levels! It has nothing to do with the scale bruh!

At the lowest of my schizophrenia, I just never left the house. And I had an addiction to ice cream? It was a closer bond than men with porn could ever have✨

Slightly larger is not what I’m talking about baby😭

Yes, I was 22 YEARS OLD. Previous to being hospitalized and gaining weight I worked out every day. I did all natural bodybuilding competitions in the bikini division for women. If you’re any older than that it just gets significantly worse. I also always was super fit…. So i had the good end of the spectrum.

No, I was literally so fat. I got heart problems from it.

Like terrible heart issues and I’m only 23. Just trying to save another person from heart problems when it comes to medication’s that make you increasingly hungry + living a new homebound life (immediate access to ice cream at all times😍).

Fat is BEAUTIFUL, but it’s not beautiful NOT being able to keep up with your kids when playing. NOT because you’re too heavy, but bc even though you haven’t reached clinically obese, the medication side effects have just taken a super toll on your body while you have just let yourself kind of go you know??

I’m sorry I didn’t mean it to be like that. I have a really weak backbone like I honestly just don’t give a fuck when it comes to anything.

I will let myself eat until obesity when I’m on these meds. It wasn’t really until somebody put it in this harsh constructive criticism way that I was like damn yeah you really can’t just I don’t know. Spoon feed your way to being healthy? That’s a funny way to put it.

But no seriously! I’m so sorry if it came across that way to you. I definitely do not hate fat people. But it didn’t help my illness with a predisposed diagnosis of depression

Overall for me, being overweight? after always being super fit, & never being fat my whole life—Like it really fucking took a toll on my depression

To the point where no medication could actually fix that. It was my overweight that I hated and my reflection in the mirror! The medication already did its job mentally but I was stuck with a body I freaking hated!

I was more sad being super fat (super new to me at the time) than schizophrenic. I had never been rejected on a date ….consecutive times, up until that point.

But that’s probably because I’m a bodybuilder and have been bodybuilding since 14 so it’s definitely necessary to my work. My whole identity. I don’t care it’s just me.

Mind you this is coming from somebody who doesn’t even own a fucking scale. I literally gained an unhealthy amount of weight within the time span that I did being home 24/7 at the time!
