So, I watched while I worked.
I watched other people find things that made them happy.
I watched people do things I would never do because I didnt feel like I deserved it.
You have the disappointing reality of having to be transparent.
Everyone knows what your struggle is.
Everyone else can pretend that they dont struggle at all.
You have to be humbled because this fact about your innermost turmoil is public knowledge.
Everyone struggles, and they are allowed this reality.
Youre allowed to have something wrong with you.
Youre allowed to have a coping mechanism.
Every single other person does this, though their methods are less visible, less severe.

Yes, I believe it is something to work on.
Many fat people become fat because they hate themselves and are paralyzed in this space.
You are allowed to be fat.
You are allowed to fail.
You are allowed to pick up and start again.
