"You don't know this yet, but life is not supposed to be this hard." I learned that when I met my boyfriend, his family, and my therapist. Didn't realize how twisted my family is...
@@geral096 I am ^_^ I used to have anxiety attacks almost everyday and depression episodes a few times a month. Now I rarely feel depressed and Im still working on my anxiety issues, but I know longer self harm.
Meredith knows exactly how that feels. She ran herself into the ground to please Ellis for years, and all Ellis ever did was smack her down and tell her she wasn't good enough.
Chana FB I have a small frame tho and I’m in the middle of a healthy weight for my height/I’m at my ideal weight and I’m a uk size 10 (us size 6) tho so
Maybe that's why I was able to get out from under my mom's thumb. I chose to go to school seven hours away, and by the time I was done, I didn't take her seriously anymore. My sister and brother were not so lucky.
My mom used to give me bottles of every kind of diet pill you can think of, even after she had heart failure from taking too many and working out. I stashed them in a drawer, and eventually tossed them. Moms, don't be a dick.
It's not just Claire who needs to see a therapist, but so does her mother for being a narcissist who never listens to anybody or herself (and actually reminds me of Evelyn Harper of Two and a Half Men). It was a good thing Meredith handled this case given her own relationship with her legendary mother.
If you're still young, I promise it will change. She probably wont, but you will grow, heal and probably let her go. My mother hurt me more than anyone in my life, but shes also the most broken person I know. Dont get stuck in the cycles and become like her
the mom acts like my mother.... I had an eating disorder for 1 year and I'm in recovery... I can tell anyone who is in a situation like Claire and Me... it gets better, I promise☺️
Freshman 15 is completely normal. Your body is under a lot of stress and changes, your going into adulthood and becoming a young woman. I can’t even fit into the same pairs of jeans as I did when I was 16 lol and I don’t want too and I noticed I can’t diet like I did either without getting physically sick, I recently came to the conclusion healthy eating and exercise is the only way to do it
Hahahaha sameee When i was younger she told me that i need to lose weight because no man will love me or like me when i am fat Then when i become very thin, i almost become anorexic she said i look ugly and old.. and she begs me to gain weight and become overweight again.. Then because of that i binged eating, i eat whatever hell i want..when i become overweight again and having a breakouts i feel depressed and sad , my self-esteem got drop because no clothes will be fit on me and i feel ugly whenever i see my reflection and many people called me “ugly and fat” But then now, i become thin again, my mom starts saying that “i look anorexic” which is i don’t think so because i know what i am doing right now, unlike before since i am a medical student, i know the normal BMI or not... Urgh! Im sick of thiss!
I was in this girls place once. My mother was a total B. I found people who loved me and appreciated me for the first time in my life in my 20s and it totally changed me. I didnt talk to my mother for years, but I learned these kinds of mothers are broken depressed people and I recognized how sad and afraid my mother was of everyone. It doesnt excuse her or others out there like this, but it makes it easier to understand and not take it personal anymore
I was almost in this exact predicament. I struggle with on and off anorexia nervosa (recovery and relapse happening almost every year or two) and I got so bad to the point where I was looking into gastric bypass surgery so I can get down to 100 lbs, not realizing I was already thin. This had me in tears.
I remember my mom wanting us to do family therapy. She was always pissed off that we weren't cleaning the house, not doing our homework, Dad was no help, etc. But we never ended up going, other than my mom who initiated things, and we were relieved... we just accepted it and moved on. I found out years later that the reason it never proceeded was because the therapist told my mom that she was the problem. She still doesn't get it, and plays the victim card if anyone points it out (because we all know now that the therapist was right - we weren't lazy; we were just never good enough).
Im sorry you have to go through this. My parents are the same way. What helped me establish a boundary that my weight is never up for discussion is that anytime a comment about my weight was made I would exit the conversation or with my mom calmly but intensely communicating those comments are damaging to my mental health and make me anxious about coming home. It took 3 years but eventually they understood. You are bit alone and I hope one day your parents will respect your boundaries
My mom doesn’t show her own kids any love. Hell, my mother is LEAVING the fucking COUNTRY on my birthday to go with her friends to Belize. I feel your mommy issues. We should start a support group for people with shitty moms
i hope that she understands that she's wrong one day. but if she never does, it's not your fault and you're not obligated to spend time with her. Hell, even if she does you're not obligated to forgive her. that shits fucked up and everyone deserves to be surrounded by people that value them for who they are
I have a degree in neuroscience and am doing a masters in molecular neuroscience and my mum still comments that I've put on weight after not being able to workout for a year after 4 surgeries in March last year
The TV show is a perfect example in how Pediatric/ER Physician fail to protect minor children/teen/adolescent etc.,Parents in the face of danger etc.,burry out parental power struggle, indifference etc.,,
Bruh I’m a size 6 😅 at one point in my life I kept on thinking if I worked hard enough I could be a size 4 or lower but then I went through therapy and learned to love myself and my body a bit more so now I’m ok with being a size 6. At least I’m healthy and not messing up my body anymore.
Sadly, this is true to life. I know a girl whose mother was ALWAYS on her to drop more weight. This person had to be at work at 730 five days a week and her mother was always calling her at 430 to tell her to get up and go jogging. She was exhausted all the time. She was beautiful and far from being overweight. But she was constantly trying to lose weight. I told her she didn't need to, as did other friends and her boyfriend eventually turned husband assured her, she was perfectly fine. But her mom knew the buttons to push. And, when she got pregnant with her first child, we could all see she wasn't eating like she needed to and gaining weight. Finally, it all came to a head when her doctor pointed this out and she broke down and told him about her fear of gaining weight and her mother. The doctor told her that her mother had unrealistic expectations, she was likely projecting her own issues onto her daughter (the mom was overweight is the kicker) and then he told her to forget everything her mother had poisoned her mind with, because she was about to become a mother and she needed to focus on taking care of herself and her child. Her mother never changed. When her granddaughter was six, my friend's mother made up a meal and workout chart for her and started saying how the kid was 'too big' for ger age. She wasn't, but my friend finally had enough, she called her mother out on her years of mental and emotional abuse and for two years, she cut all contact with her. She sees her now, but only for an hour or two every few months and the woman knows if she makes one comment about weight, she is cut out of their lives again.
The problem with caloric restriction in the absence of exercise (especially strength training) is that the majority of the weight loss will be skeletal muscle mass and water. Very little, if any, of the body mass lost in the process will be fatty tissue. Being thin without sufficient levels of healthy lean mass will result in a severely low basal metabolic rate, and subsequently, all of the weight restored will be body fat once the individual resumes a hypercaloric intake. And so, that person will be back to square one. Placing too much of an emphasis on scale weight and clothing size at the expense of body composition is partially what leads to eating disorders in the first place, and makes recovery from them lengthier and more difficult.
LMAO, she called cps? My dad got cps called on him two different times by two different therapists (my mom's and mine) for a WHOLE lot more then my eating disorder. I was really messed up. And you know what cps did? *Absolutely nothing.*
Christina Mulloy You’re supposed to be the size you are ❤️ If you don’t overeat or starve yourself. The size you are without trying TOO hard to be that size. So probably the size you are now is great for you
The best thing to do is focus on health, not size. If you do some research, you'll see sizing isn't even consistent, especially for women. If you're worried, the best person to talk to is a doctor, who can get a comprehensive look at your health.
Wait is it bad that I’m 15 and weigh 115 and I’m 5’8 and a size 2? Should I weigh less because I’m young? I feel like all my friends are smaller than me.
Bored bunnyX woah, you’re kidding right? lol.. I’m 5’8 and my healthiest perfect weight is about 140... my most horrible, unhealthy, worst weight was 112.. we are the same height... age has NOTHING to do with it once you’re 15-16.. you weighing 115 is absolutley not bad or heavy.. if anything, it’s way more on the lower side. I’m 5’8 and taller than almost every girl I know and meet... and I’m super skinny and athletic built, always have been.. you can judge yourself and size and weight based off of someone who is say, between 5’0-5’5 like 90% of girls... even if you are proportioned different than me.. weight is still weight.. and 115 is low... definitely not heavy.. it’s the opposite... and honestly the healthiest weight area for someone our height is between 125lbs-140lbs... I promise you everything I’m saying is accurate! My sisters are all 3 the same height as me, as well as my mom... and we are all built slightly different than each other.. so body shape and how your build definitely does matter.. but you are absolutley not even close to being on the heavy side... the heavier side for us would be around 165-185lbs.. and even then given our height, that still wouldn’t be huge or “fat”. I used to think being a size 1-2 in pants was the coolest and sexiest thing ever when I was 14-17ish... but it’s not. Actually, wearing a size 4-6 is much healthier, usually... not in ALL cases... but most of the time. bc I was a size 1-2 for almost my whole teenage years... I’m 22 almost 23 now... it has taken me until the last year or two to finally hit my goal weight, which is 140 pounds... and it fluctuates from 135-145... and I look better and healthier than I ever have. Not just skin and bones. When I was 18-19 I weighed 112lbs and I looked absolutley horrific, disgusting, and anorexic. I was extremely unhealthy and had A LOT of health problems and major surgeries. I promise if you just take everything that I said here as the truth and as a fact... you will feel SO much better about yourself... and understand what it means if your weight goes up from here or drops more. But the last thing I’m going to say is, if you are 5’8, PLEASE do EVERYTHING you can within your power and control to NOT let yourself get any lower than 115 and where you are at now... if possible, try to gain a little weight in a healthy way if you can. Yes, it fluctuates some up and down depending on the day, clothes, shoes, food you’ve eaten, bloating, etc... but you know what I mean. Anyway... I don’t know if you will read this whole entire message... I’m sorry it was so crazy insanely long and such. I just know I’ve always struggled with my weight, being underweight and taller than most girls my whole life... and getting bullied the same way an overweight person would. And I just want to do whatever I can to help someone to not go through that or know the actually truth and reality of the situation instead... and not to give into your insecurities. I’m just trying to be as informative and specific and relatable as possible for you. I really hope you do read this insanely long novel lol and appreciate it get something out of it. Happy Thanksgiving... and DO NOT WORRY ABOUT YOUR WEIGHT MAKE SURE YOU ABSOLULTELY EAT AS MUCH AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN US SKINNY TALL GIRLS CAN EAT AND HOLD A LOT MORE FOOD THAN MOST PEOPLE THINK. 🤣🤣😂😆🤪🤪😋😋😛🤤🤤🦃🦃🐓🐓🐄🐖🐖🍗🍖🥘🍨🥔🥖🍞🥧🍰🍽🍽🍴🍴🍻🥂💓💓💓💓💓💞💞
ashlynnkk thank you so much for your incredibly sweet and helpful novel like message lol. I read it all and it really did help me feel better about myself. I used to weigh 140 but lost the weight a few months ago. To be honest I’ve struggled with multiple eating disorders in the past and sometimes those negative thoughts return. On today of all days, Thanksgiving 😅🤦🏼♀️ I’ve been bullied and these girls would corner me in the bathrooms at school and tell me to purge all my food and so that started a cycle of negative behavior when it comes to food. At the moment, I haven’t eaten in two days but nobody knows or noticed. I’m going to try to ignore those negative thoughts and enjoy today and eat a heck ton of food, that would be my dream lol But anyway, thank you for your message, it’d helped me see that the way I view myself isn’t right. Idk if you wanted to hear my “life story” lol but yeah. Thanks again and happy Thanksgiving! 🍽🍁🦃
@@boredbunnyx3476 this video probably came in my suggested videos because I had both a gastric bypass and a reversal. I learned the very hardest way there was worse things than being fat which you are the opposite of and there are people who will care about you regardless of what you weigh. As a child who was bullied for being too heavy, then having surgery losing weight, those who were not nice to me fat, weren't any nicer to me being thin, luckily this was before the social media (I'll 50 on Monday and it's nothing short of a miracle, I lived this long. Because of meds prior to my reversal I went from a size 24 to a 2/4 but I loved exercise, back to a 20 and was about a size 14 at the time of my reversal and my bariatric surgeon told me, I would be better off gaining 600 lbs, and not staying intact than I could ever become sick from being fat. But I had the labs of a starving person for almost 18 years, in addition to the killer bleeds, my labs just became normal now, 9 years after my reversal and 18 years after my gastric bypass. As Meredith said, "life isn't supposed to be this hard" and it's true. Most people looking at me could never tell how much time I've spent not eating and throwing up thousands of times. This will not get better on it's own, if you have to starve yourself to maintain or lose weight. A strange phenomenon happens with quite a few weight loss surgery patients, as it's metabolic suicide, eventually the body for those of us who are heavier been on a ton of diets, gain weight not eating much. I hope you have friends or family that you can talk to or a professional. I know as a heavy woman, because I am a non monetized blogger regarding body diversity and I hate thin shaming when I've talked about that to strangers who were really thin either natural disposition or eating disordered they thought all heavy women hated them, if not wanted to convert them to being fat, which is simply not true.... You will find a circle of support there are vloggers who talk about recovery from Anorexia, if you feel that might help but know people care, hopefully you will find support that works the best for you.... Peace.....
i dont think the mom did anything wrong from what she said. it just sounds weird because she’s a bit pushy but it seems like she just wants her kid to be healthy by staying fit by eating healthily and working out. i dont think there’s anything wrong w that.
Omg I remember when I was size 0 all high school and toward the end I hit size 2, omg this brings back all those memories. I went on proana sites to motivate me to loose weight and keep it. Kinda worked lol still size 0.
Hey ED community, I need some help. Do I have an ED: I’ve tried to purge multiple times, and I try to restrict food and then I go back on some massive junk food binge. Then I feel like shit about it, and either attempt to purge or self harm. (I’ve been self harming for almost a year, this weird eating thing is more recent) I don’t think I have an ED but some people have said I have. What do you think?
did Meredith really say, "no, she's a NORMAL college kid"? that sounds like not being skinny in college is abnormal and also sounds like she's body-shaming
"You don't know this yet, but life is not supposed to be this hard."

Maybe she got into college early
when i start college, i’ll be 17. so i’ll still be a child. maybe it’s a similar situation
She is 17
Social Services can be called in for all kinds of reasons and all kinds of ages- social services doesn’t necessarily mean Child Protective Services
Looking at the fact that she's not even able to decide whether or not she can get a surgery, she's probably not 18 yet
My mom was like this when I was younger. I developed 2 eating disorders. Now that I stay small, she comments on that too.
You're mom's the textbook definition of moron for putting you through all that crap

I’m 5’8 and my healthiest perfect weight is about 140... my most horrible, unhealthy, worst weight was 112.. we are the same height... age has NOTHING to do with it once you’re 15-16.. you weighing 115 is absolutley not bad or heavy.. if anything, it’s way more on the lower side. I’m 5’8 and taller than almost every girl I know and meet... and I’m super skinny and athletic built, always have been.. you can judge yourself and size and weight based off of someone who is say, between 5’0-5’5 like 90% of girls... even if you are proportioned different than me.. weight is still weight.. and 115 is low... definitely not heavy.. it’s the opposite... and honestly the healthiest weight area for someone our height is between 125lbs-140lbs... I promise you everything I’m saying is accurate! My sisters are all 3 the same height as me, as well as my mom... and we are all built slightly different than each other.. so body shape and how your build definitely does matter.. but you are absolutley not even close to being on the heavy side... the heavier side for us would be around 165-185lbs.. and even then given our height, that still wouldn’t be huge or “fat”. I used to think being a size 1-2 in pants was the coolest and sexiest thing ever when I was 14-17ish... but it’s not. Actually, wearing a size 4-6 is much healthier, usually... not in ALL cases... but most of the time. bc I was a size 1-2 for almost my whole teenage years... I’m 22 almost 23 now... it has taken me until the last year or two to finally hit my goal weight, which is 140 pounds... and it fluctuates from 135-145... and I look better and healthier than I ever have. Not just skin and bones. When I was 18-19 I weighed 112lbs and I looked absolutley horrific, disgusting, and anorexic. I was extremely unhealthy and had A LOT of health problems and major surgeries. I promise if you just take everything that I said here as the truth and as a fact... you will feel SO much better about yourself... and understand what it means if your weight goes up from here or drops more. But the last thing I’m going to say is, if you are 5’8, PLEASE do EVERYTHING you can within your power and control to NOT let yourself get any lower than 115 and where you are at now... if possible, try to gain a little weight in a healthy way if you can. Yes, it fluctuates some up and down depending on the day, clothes, shoes, food you’ve eaten, bloating, etc... but you know what I mean. Anyway... I don’t know if you will read this whole entire message... I’m sorry it was so crazy insanely long and such. I just know I’ve always struggled with my weight, being underweight and taller than most girls my whole life... and getting bullied the same way an overweight person would. And I just want to do whatever I can to help someone to not go through that or know the actually truth and reality of the situation instead... and not to give into your insecurities. I’m just trying to be as informative and specific and relatable as possible for you. I really hope you do read this insanely long novel lol and appreciate it get something out of it. Happy Thanksgiving... and DO NOT WORRY ABOUT YOUR WEIGHT MAKE SURE YOU ABSOLULTELY EAT AS MUCH AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN US SKINNY TALL GIRLS CAN EAT AND HOLD A LOT MORE FOOD THAN MOST PEOPLE THINK. 🤣🤣😂😆🤪🤪😋😋😛🤤🤤🦃🦃🐓🐓🐄🐖🐖🍗🍖🥘🍨🥔🥖🍞🥧🍰🍽🍽🍴🍴🍻🥂💓💓💓💓💓💞💞
ashlynnkk thank you so much for your incredibly sweet and helpful novel like message lol. I read it all and it really did help me feel better about myself. I used to weigh 140 but lost the weight a few months ago. To be honest I’ve struggled with multiple eating disorders in the past and sometimes those negative thoughts return. On today of all days, Thanksgiving 😅🤦🏼♀️
I’ve been bullied and these girls would corner me in the bathrooms at school and tell me to purge all my food and so that started a cycle of negative behavior when it comes to food. At the moment, I haven’t eaten in two days but nobody knows or noticed. I’m going to try to ignore those negative thoughts and enjoy today and eat a heck ton of food, that would be my dream lol
But anyway, thank you for your message, it’d helped me see that the way I view myself isn’t right. Idk if you wanted to hear my “life story” lol but yeah. Thanks again and happy Thanksgiving! 🍽🍁🦃
i’m 14 5’4 and 130 but i look skinny lmaoo ur good queen. i’m a size 2 too
erin r lol okay thx
@@boredbunnyx3476 this video probably came in my suggested videos because I had both a gastric bypass and a reversal. I learned the very hardest way there was worse things than being fat which you are the opposite of and there are people who will care about you regardless of what you weigh.
As a child who was bullied for being too heavy, then having surgery losing weight, those who were not nice to me fat, weren't any nicer to me being thin, luckily this was before the social media (I'll 50 on Monday and it's nothing short of a miracle, I lived this long. Because of meds prior to my reversal I went from a size 24 to a 2/4 but I loved exercise, back to a 20 and was about a size 14 at the time of my reversal and my bariatric surgeon told me, I would be better off gaining 600 lbs, and not staying intact than I could ever become sick from being fat.
But I had the labs of a starving person for almost 18 years, in addition to the killer bleeds, my labs just became normal now, 9 years after my reversal and 18 years after my gastric bypass.
As Meredith said, "life isn't supposed to be this hard" and it's true. Most people looking at me could never tell how much time I've spent not eating and throwing up thousands of times.
This will not get better on it's own, if you have to starve yourself to maintain or lose weight. A strange phenomenon happens with quite a few weight loss surgery patients, as it's metabolic suicide, eventually the body for those of us who are heavier been on a ton of diets, gain weight not eating much.
I hope you have friends or family that you can talk to or a professional. I know as a heavy woman, because I am a non monetized blogger regarding body diversity and I hate thin shaming when I've talked about that to strangers who were really thin either natural disposition or eating disordered they thought all heavy women hated them, if not wanted to convert them to being fat, which is simply not true.... You will find a circle of support there are vloggers who talk about recovery from Anorexia, if you feel that might help but know people care, hopefully you will find support that works the best for you.... Peace.....
He looks like the guy from the youtube memes
it kind of hurts that my mother is like that in real life
i dont think the mom did anything wrong from what she said. it just sounds weird because she’s a bit pushy but it seems like she just wants her kid to be healthy by staying fit by eating healthily and working out. i dont think there’s anything wrong w that.
and here i am wishing i was a size 6 while she calls it fat...
"Life is not supposed to be this hard" because you're a white, rich, pretty white woman who is completely able
Have you even seen this show? 😂
Don’t invalidate someone else’s situation. Everyone has their shit.
@@amsteichelmann yes
@@katie5998 I'm clearly mocking the line
Justice Obviously. And I’m clearly mocking your bullfuckery of a response. :)
size 6? that’s tiny wtf
Omg I remember when I was size 0 all high school and toward the end I hit size 2, omg this brings back all those memories. I went on proana sites to motivate me to loose weight and keep it. Kinda worked lol still size 0.
She’s 18 right? How do either of her folks have any say in what she does? Can you load the whole episode?
No entiendo nada pero me gusta
Her dad has no backbone..
A size 6 isn’t being fat that’s a healthy weight! That girl wasn’t even fat!
Legally speaking wouldn't the choice be up to her?
Being in college it's unlikely she'd be under 18
No está el capítulo Completo de esta Por fa?
Yo no hablo español pero cómo estas?
Shit, that's my mom...
How weird it must be to see yourself aging on screen.
Why won’t she eat normally again?
I didnt gain 15 pounds when i went to college.

Hey ED community,
I need some help. Do I have an ED: I’ve tried to purge multiple times, and I try to restrict food and then I go back on some massive junk food binge. Then I feel like shit about it, and either attempt to purge or self harm. (I’ve been self harming for almost a year, this weird eating thing is more recent) I don’t think I have an ED but some people have said I have. What do you think?
I think you know the answer.
that’s how mine started. don’t let it get worse ):
@@jessicasmith8473 well looking back on this, wow! its bad now and i wished i reached out then
Jesus loves you!
did Meredith really say, "no, she's a NORMAL college kid"? that sounds like not being skinny in college is abnormal and also sounds like she's body-shaming
Such bad acting
