Blogs that promote eating disorders and self harm make me fucking sick.
Alright, what I am going to say will probably offend some people, but so be it. Anyways.. I am really sick and tired of scrolling through my dash and seeing photos of malnourished girls, self harm, and blogs promoted as being dedicated to sadness/self hatred. I’m tired of seeing self loathing being glamorized while promoting an indcredibly distorted view of “perfection”. Speaking as a person who has recovered from an eating disorder, still self harms and struggles with depression and self hatred at times, I just don’t get it. It’s sad to me that so many of you feel that way, but it’s sickening that eating disorders, self harm, depression and self loathing have become their own ‘trendy’ subculture in a way.
And on a slightly different note: No one is perfect. NO ONE. In my opinion, perfection doesn’t even exist. We are all equally flawed. Starving yourself or hating yourself won’t make you perfect. The sooner you realize that, the sooner you can make a step toward recovery and be a happier person.
I just felt like getting that off my chest.
The first time I’ve cut in ages. idk, I’m not even upset by it, I just thought I was over it. Oh well I guess not. lol.
