fatphobic

I’ve had an eating disorder since I was 12 and recently started medication that causes me to gain a lot of weight. I don’t want to hate myself because of this I don’t want to be fatphobic and I’m working so hard on loving my body as it is at this moment but social media and the world is making it impossible. I googled plus size clothing cuz I was really struggling to find stuff that fits comfortably but still looks good (extremely challenging). Since then all I’ve had on my TikTok(now deleted) is people telling me I have to lose weight. On instagram all I see is people that have lost weight. My family is also fatphobic so it’s just everywhere. What I dont understand is why after googling plus size clothing does weight loss come up? Surely the algorithms should show me plus size clothing. But no, apparently fatphobia is absolutely everywhere and it’s suffocating me. #fatphobic #Fatphobia #weightgain #Selflove #Selfcare

#antipsychotic weight gain seems inevitable for most of us with #Schizophrenia . It’s one of the most common #SideEffects of our medications. It can be distressing and lead to multiple health issues, including diabetes ans heart failure.

But how do we talk about it in a healthy way? It seems that any time I talk about my weight gain, outside of speaking to my doctors about it, there’s a lack of support from family and friends because I sound like I’m complaining or being #fatphobic or contributing to #triggers for #DisorderedEating .

I gained 70lbs in less than a year. It’s uncomfortable. It was expensive to consistently purchase new clothing. My body is uncomfortably different.

Where can I go to for support without offending those I love?
