My mom is obese. She can walk around, she worked at a job that had a lot of physical aspects of it but it kills me. Now that she switched jobs to something not active at all she mentions to me that she's gained weight. I hate when she says in a frustrated voice that she's "to fat to tie her shoes." Or she gets out of breath doing certain things. She's tried diets, she's lost a lot of weight in the past but gained it all back. I fucking hate her telling me these struggles she has because it makes me have this bad feeling and I hate it. It makes me want to not become like her and I want to starve myself and I hate this so much. I was using her phone to search up something and I saw she searched up overeaters anonymous. I just don't wanna feel like this anymore. I got a pumpkin coffee from Starbucks and a donut and she ordered three. One for me, her, and my dad. She ate his and hers. I just feel so fucking responsible and I hate this. I hate that I can't tell anybody.

I completely understand. Its very embarrassing to be honest. The film 'what's eating Gilbert grape' was relatable to Me. Watching it isn't gonna do anything necessarily but I thought I'd mention it anyway.
My mother got a gastric bypass surgery and I was so grumpy when she was getting it because its frustrating that they can't just loose the weight. But she has lost a bit, she's still overweight but she doesn't complain quite as much as she used to about being in pain from being overweight. But it's an addiction, saying that makes me cringe and I kinda hate it but it is an addiction. Everyone needs something to get them through. My mum joined overeaters anonymous and it didn't do too much for her but it's good that your mum is aware she has a problem. It's frustrating not being able to tell anyone and I understand the embarrassment. Just try to focus on yourself. Overeaters anonymous might help your mum. Don't starve yourself. You'll be just as unhealthy if you're very underweight as if you were very overweight. Just try to be healthy, you can recognize your mothers unhealthy habits and know not to do them yourself but you can't change what she does. Meditation would help you too, but you would need to do a little bit every day to see the effects.
ReplyYour reply brought me to tears haha. I've never talked about these feelings and I try to not think about them a lot. But something just overcame me and I couldn't ignore it. I'll check out the movie you mentioned. I'm glad I'm not alone. Thank you so much.
