I put this on my iPod Mia. I hate myself at the moment and I actually used to have anorexic tendencies. I get what you mean about comparing urself to other people, and that we can’t help it
It’s just, I see the extremes as being good things, like I see eating disorders as ideology. Put it this way, I’ve hated myself since I was 11, I’m 14 now and it recently got worse, when I ended up with tendencies. All I know is that I can’t really talk to anyone except my skating coach, because she’s not gonna talk to my parents. I hate being in a shell D:
