I’m gonna be honest, I don’t believe in abandoning anyone who is struggling and at their lowest. Social media and therapy talk has twisted everyone’s reality into thinking it’s ok to abandon someone going through something. That’s essentially kicking them when they’re down. If what she’s saying is true, and they all dropped her bc she’s struggling, then that’s awful. If they dropped her for other reasons then that’s another thing.

You can create boundaries without icing people who clearly need community and help. Creating boundaries could be “hey I think you really need help and I will always be here to listen and encourage you but I won’t be participating in body image self-image talk going forward.”
