This is me in 2012. Depressed and suicidal from 2004, and then learning I had the same heart disease that killed my mother and would need heart surgery costing $15,500 USD + $120,000 JMD which I had no idea I how I would afford it.
Looking like this, imagine how I was teased https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😪" title="Verschlafenes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Verschlafenes Gesicht">
I remember attending an event around 2010 & Ragashanti called me “toothpick” in front of the whole indoor arena and the whole crowd bursted out laughing, some people being extra on the floorhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙄" title="Gesicht mit rollenden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit rollenden Augen">. Being skinny wasn’t my fault. I wanted to kill myself then & there. I hated my self.
Also, tried modeling because being skinny I thought I’d be fit for it and Saints had recruited me before only to hear in 2013 wid mi crawny self mi too “fat”https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">
Also, when I was diagnosed with my heart disease and put on medication in 2011, it would be years later in 2020 that I realize “loss of appetite” and “changes in weight” were side effects of my heart meds and was affecting me all these years.
I’d not eat for days & not feel hungry or feel hungry & just can’t eat. I tried Peritol for my appetite. It only worked for a time. My weight fluctuated ALOT! Most times I’d be underweight. I was very uncomfortable. Clothes didn’t fit me well, I hated how I looked and felt.
And people commenting on my fhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤬" title="Gesicht mit Symbolen über dem Mund" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Symbolen über dem Mund">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤬" title="Gesicht mit Symbolen über dem Mund" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Symbolen über dem Mund">king weight every chance they got DID NOT FRIGGING HELP!!!!!
