in september, we did a heath screen through school where they logged our height, weight, etc. since august, i’ve gone through a couple medications for anxiety/depression and my weight has fluctuated. my last boyfriend had some problems with my weight, so i began cutting. i didn’t tell anyone until last week, when i got the results that said I was overweight. my boyfriend had dumped me and i was feeling awful. i began talking to a boy i knew from my high school band. we started talking and he asked what was wrong and i told him. surprisingly, he had some weight problems in the past and he consoled me. he then told me that i shouldn’t cut and he then asked me on a date. up to this point in my life, he is the only person i’ve really been about to talk to. thanks to him, i’ve been more happy than i have been for a loonnngg time.

so anyone going through something tough, PLEASE. TALK. TO. SOMEONE.
