The card says, "I only think about killing myself when I work out at the gym. I know that no matter how hard I try, I'll never be thin or average. I often wonder if any of the other big girls around me are thinking the same thing."
It is terrible the thoughts that can go through our heads, we treat ourselves worse than any enemy we've ever had, we think the worst thoughts and don't let ourselves make mistakes that others are allowed.
I hope that whoever submitted this card to Post Secret and whoever feels suicidal at all, it is no joke. It's very important to seek out some kind of counselling even if its anonymous one of those hotlines.
First off, not everyone was meant to be a size 2 or skinny or thin or even average soooo the best thing to do is to work towards getting healthy and to take things just like an alcholic, take them one day at a time and to celebrate the little victories which, in the end have the potential to begin huge victories.
It's definitely not easy getting out there, and exercising and working out and it's especially embarrassing in front of people who actually are height/weight proportionate which is why those places like Curves are so much better because, it's all women and a less threatening atmosphere than other gyms.
We were not meant to be cut-out cookies, if everyone looked the same, the world would be a very boring place of Kens and Barbies. Life is precious!
To those of you who are new to my blog, this is not my usual type of blog but, I felt that I had something to say so I said it.
Sometimes it's all about what you focus on... if you focus on the negative I'm sure that you can come up with all kinds of reasons, I know, I've been there but try focusing on the positive... and you'll see that everything... even hard things are easier to get through when you focus on the positive.
