I am 24 year old and my weight is about 45kg. I believe body shaming starts at home. In my case my parents use to make me eat alot in hopes to gain waight. They took me to doctors, when I was completely healthy. Just to make me eat medicine to gain weight. I clearly remember once my friend at college asked me if i wore padded bra, that too in canteen. I was furious and maintained distance with those girls. I lost friends. Then whenever we went shopping, eveyone is like i should take size âextra smallâ and maybe it will be lose for me. Current situation is my parents think i will not get a good match for arranged marriage just because i am too skinny.

Heyy!!
I think in the end the only thing that matters is how comfortable you are in your own skin and believe my the moment youâll start getting comfortable with who you are such comments wonât bother you and I think even your parents will realise that the confidence that you carry will attract a good match and not the skin or the size.
Take Care!
I have accepted the fact that maybe being skinny is my body structure itself. But my parents thing i am not making efforts to gain wait.
And I am sorry that happened to youđâŚhope u r comfortable with ur body now and they would realise that,that was not cool đ
I have accepted my body. But people around me keep bothering me about itâŚ
Ignore them.I know many people say this but sometimes itâs better.I also get bodyshamed by my family.I just ignored them and even after years I guess they started to not care anymore.
these people should start fixing up their view on people instead of trying to fix something that ainât their businesse or already perfect.
I donât know who thought them that body shaming is right.
âŚglad to know that youâve accepted your body.keep ignoring their behaviour hopefully theyâll stop.
Hopefully theyâll also understand that bodyshaming ainât good.
Inner beauty does not come from good body posture.
If thingâs get worse itâs not ur fault, its theirs for not understanding.
Keep on going!
what no.
i completely understand you. i m also going through same phase as you i m also skinny to i have same weight as you but if i think i will not get match than i dont take it seriously and i think you should also not take it seriously because it is just the start of your life. you are perfect as you are and as beautiful and bold as you think you are i believe it so. much love.
donât
When negative things ⌠Like u will not get a partner⌠Comes right from parents, who are closest family. Then these things definitely hits my heartâŚ
I come from past where people have left me⌠So i get scared when parents make such comments⌠I start thinking maybe nobody wants thin and flat girlsâŚ
i totally understand it bother from our closest.

I donât know what will happen. But definitely it affects my mental health each time
what is your take when it will affect your mental health? what will do next?
