you know what guys, ive been reading a few blogs recently of now bulimics.. and i realize the one thing they all have in common is the people around them.
im done being nice about it and saying it will get better.
the other day i went to my thinking spot:
and if there wasnt people there staring at me for going alone on a hike, i probably would’ve cried. and i realized that my entire life, ive made people happy. thats what i do. its what i live for. making someone not happy is like… failure. im such a goddamn people pleaser.
growing up i never told my family about my molester because i didn’t want to hurt them.
there. i said it. something i actually tried to hide from you guys. to make you all not worry, or feel bad.
and please. dont fucking feel bad at all.
i overcame it and when i was 15 i was basically forced to tell. I refused to press charges, my family was pissed. i was pissed at them for finding out. it doesnt really bother me these days.
i work so hard to please bosses or people around me that i physically wear myself to the bone.
its a neverending cycle when you’re doing shit to please other people. i wish i could be bulimic, and have people understand.. but yet again i find myself nine years old writing in my diary things that would kill the people around me.
and so today marks the day where i say fuck it.
this doesnt mean im coming out about bulimia. i never will. but this means that if bulimia doesnt make me happy, im gonna fight that bitch like hell.
the second where throwing up lunch feels wrong, im stopping. (i know i say this now, but who am i really doing this for?) if eating a cheeseburger makes me happy, fuck it. for now, as sick as this sounds, bulimia makes me happy. it satisfies me. it gets me by without being overly depressed.
before i was bulimic i was happy, but i was heading down a not so happy road. if this is the thing that keeps my head above water, for just a moment longer, it’s what im going to do, and everything else that matters will just have to fit around it.
you guys, who gives a shit if a guy doesnt like you like you like him? it will hurt less if you just get over him. who cares if your boss is mad you wont stay four hours overtime? its his own fucking fault for making such a shitty schedule. who cares if your sister thinks your too thin? maybe she just got the shitty genetics.
the last part was a joke… but forreal, just make it look like you’re eating healthy.
the people at my new jobs talk about how little and skinny i am. and i only eat one chobani and a water when im on my lunch break. if they think you eat healthy, they wont bother asking more.
