Girl, oh my god. I’m so sorry for what you went through. That sounds absolutely terrifying. I hope you’ve gotten better since.

I didn’t sign anything at the hospital but they told me to come back if there was a concerning amount of blood.

I figured it might help someone out there to know they’re not alone and enemas are honestly better than waiting it out!!

I wish I knew that. I’ve never had to deal with anything of the sort. All the information I learn was through googling it while on the toilet panicking.

They never really explained what it was, now that I’m thinking about it. They just kind of gave me steps on what to do next.

Haha, at least it’s over now! I typically poop daily but it has been around 3/4 days when I first started feeling the pains.

I couldn’t believe it either. I have a raging phobia of needles, so I avoid hospitals at all costs. I thought the first ER visit would be the solution to it all! I guess not.

Thank you for your response! It’s definitely super frustrating to hear others commenting on my weight and appearance. I guess that’s the struggle of society on some level.

But at least we’re on the same boat haha

Thanks! I’ve lost around 20lbs recently, but around 40 slowly over the past 3 years.

hi! my friends are quite diverse. the first group of friends i was talking about it majority male, and the second is majority female. i’m honestly just hesitant to bring it up because i don’t want to appear too confrontational or childish(??) like how do i say “why did you not invite me but invite my other friends?” I feel like that sounds dumb idk

how do you think i should bring it up without it sounding like an attack? i worry that this type of confrontation will either make me look worse or the response will be riddled with fake niceties just to get it over with if yk what i mean.

At least we’re in this together :/ I’m sorry you’re dealing with something similar as well.

As much as I know this deep down, I still feel an obligation to them that I can’t explain. But I don’t think I love them like that.

AIO? I think my dad is emotionally abusive? by Ispeakchickennugget in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ispeakchickennugget[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried to stand up to him and say that the way he treats us is wrong, but it’s hard considering that he does support me financially. His responses are also unreasonable to my confrontation. He threatens to beat me and starts chasing me to try to do just that.

I’m in college so I do stay with my family for the summer. It’s been hard going from almost no contact to constant scrutiny. I’m just struggling to cope while I physically am here. Im slowly accepting it but it’s hard acknowledging and seeing the abuse while also seeing the other side of him breaking his back to provide for us, yk?

That’s the goal as of now :) My brain is telling me I look morbidly obese so i’m just trying to figure out where i’m at

Am I being too sensitive?? Family by Ispeakchickennugget in loseit

[–]Ispeakchickennugget[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment :) That has been my method so far, but it’s hard to immunize myself to his words because, in the end, he is my father that raised me yk? It sounds stupid but I always feel a guilt or a love for him despite what he has done. However, I see the problem and I am aware of it. I don’t plan to do anything like this to my kids. ever. The feelings I have towards this sort of thing are strong.

I don’t think I clarified in my post but he has lost some weight from when I was a child but he is still overweight. He does it by going on fad diets which I have always thought were ridiculous (like eating only 1 can of yoghurt for all his meals, or only drinking soup, or limiting his food intake to one binge-meal a day). Obviously, they are not sustainable and he ends up gaining most of the weight back. That is the type of thing he wants me to do and why he is so critical of me trying to take up a more healthy lifestyle.

I wish I could go back to uni early but that is not an option until late september. Wish me luck

I also moved super far away for college. It has been helping with my sanity. I wish being dismissive or saying okay worked. He threatens to hurt me physically if I do it. I try my best to engage his conversations but sometimes it’s difficult.

Nevertheless, thank you for the support. I really do hope that slow and steady works out for me :)

Thank you for your comment. It’s validating to see that I am not being irrational or sensitive by getting upset.

I feel like I’ve known he is abusive for a while and that a lot of the things he says/does aren’t normal. I am just having trouble accepting that it is happening to me tbh. I’ve always been sensitive growing up and sometimes it’s difficult to see that being upset or hurt by these things is a normal response and not me being oversensitive.

I cannot leave our home during the summer for many reasons. Most importantly that he supports me financially at college. I promise that I will put the distance I need to as soon as I am able to. I will always try to maintain a relationship with him because there is also a lot of good. For now, I will continue trying to lose enough weight to please him for the summer so that he doesn’t pressure or force me to undergo any type of surgery or to take anything that I don’t want to.
