Hello wonderful people! Your little chubby bunny

Hello wonderful people!

Your little chubby bunny here 🖤

I've been away for a while and pretty much been completely inactive over on socials.

The last month has been a difficult one for sure and I've not felt great at all. I dislocated my kneecap and then my beautiful aunt passed away so things have been quite hard.

But I will be doing more content on body dysmorphic disorder over July and August for you so stay tuned!

🚨Trigger ED & BDD 🚨 How I felt years ago wh

🚨Trigger ED & BDD 🚨

How I felt years ago when seeking help:
"I'm ugly. I'm disgusting. I'm fat and I'm flabby. I feel embarrassed to be seen. I feel unworthy of life. I'm being bullied and I'm self conscious about my height and my weight. My face is ugly, I'm not popular and I am scared of everyone around me.

I hate what I see in the mirror. I don't want to eat. I'm trying to find ways of losing weight quickly. I need to be good enough. I want to be beautiful. I feel disgusting. I want help. I NEED help"

My school mentors response:
*Smug look on face* "Well it seems like you're really feeling sorry for yourself"

My psychiatrist's response:
*Says with a smile on his face* "Don't be silly. You're beautiful"

The moral/ point is:

At a time in my life when I desperately needed help, I was shunted down. My body image struggles weren't taken seriously. At a time of pure weakness and mental illness where I'd built myself up to feel strong enough to ask for help, I was denied it because I was "Being silly" and that I was "beautiful the way I was".

Me being denied help and not taken seriously resulted in me developing a serious eating disorder and still follows me to this day. When I finally dropped to 6 stone I still wasn't seen for an eating disorder despite my toxic relationship with food and also my 'methods' of weight loss and being generally ill.

I had to learn to recover. I finally found the body positive community which really helped me. When I gained weight but fell into very toxic thought patterns again, I asked for help again. I pleaded for help to ensure my anorexia didn't send me to hospital but I was told I wasn't underweight enough.

That's when I realised that I'd have to do it alone. I'll always have my ED and BDD struggles but I'm proud of myself for ignoring that voice that screams that I'm not good enough or atleast not letting that voice win.

To anyone struggling. You can do this. I believe you and I believe IN you. You are stronger than that voice that tells you that you aren't good enough. You're bloody fab!

If you need to feel heard, you can also checkout my article on @thefatzine ☕

I realise that these lumps and bumps keep me safe.

I realise that these lumps and bumps keep me safe. My stretch marks and cellulite tell stories of my bodies history. My body is a beautiful thing that stands tall (Well, I’m only 4ft 10), rises when I fall and is the one companion my mind has had throughout all the hard times in my life.

Dear body, I will feed you, keep you hydrated and befriend you. I shall treat you with kindness and make up with you after we fight on bad days. You are magnificent. Thank you for keeping me alive.

Above I wrote this for a @thefatzine post 🖤🥰

Welcome to my Body Dysmorphic Disorder post for my Mental illness series. Stay tuned for more this month 🌻

So July's Mental illness theme is Body Dysmorphic

So July's Mental illness theme is Body Dysmorphic Disorder. I'll be focusing on Anxiety and BDD since it is an anxieties disorder. So, what is BDD?

For those visually impaired, the text on the image is written below:

* A disorder that can be debilitating and disabling in everyday life

* A mental illness that can cause distorted thinking about the way we look

* An anxiety disorder where the person can spend a lot of time worrying about their appearance

* Worry or uneasy feelings about your appearance that can either be mild or severe

* A severe struggle with body acceptance

* A person who may focus on one or more parts of their bodies and become anxious about the appearance of those parts

What a beautiful day Saturday was! One of my best friends weddings ❤ It was so emotional and so personal. Seeing them so in love was just beyond lovely! @unicornlaurenx @tom_l21ett

We transformed the garden into a wedding reception and I couldn't be prouder of what we achieved. Their first dance was beautiful and again so many emotions!

Swipe to see the bride and groom!

Sadly the evening ended with me in hospital with a dislocated patella and ligament damage. I'm in a splint and on crutches. Painful but it will all be ok!

No dancing for me for a while 😓

I may be a little quieter than usual as I'm on some heavy meds which I'm a little all over the place with but I will have some content about July's mental illness theme - Body Dysmorphic Disorder 🙌

It's the last two days of June but I will be carrying on with anxiety disorders in July but with the main focus being 'Body Dysmorphic Disorder'

Here are some ways that anxiety can make us feel. They are also written below for those who are visually impaired:

'How we can feel during high anxiety'

First image captions:

* Feeling like everything we say is wrong or we're offending people

* Experiencing imposter syndrome

* Feeling hopeless and full of negative and harmful thoughts

* Feeling like people around you don't like you

Second image captions:

* Like the world around us is caving in and feeling a huge pit of doom in your stomach

* Feeling or choosing to isolate ourselves

* Feeling uneasy being away from home

* Not being able to focus or co ordinate our minds, bodies or emotions

* Feeling like we want to lock ourselves away from everyone and never leave our safe place again

* Not feeling like you can cope with social interaction or leaving your house

Happiness, Lifestyle and all things wonderful.
I always say that the most important thing in life is happiness, therefore that is what I'd like to share.
I'm an honest, kind and happy person who loves sharing my experiences and real stories to help others like me realise they are not alone in this huge world.
I'm a huge supporter of mental health and body positivity and believe we can change the way society is about these topics together.
Just a small girl in a big world trying to be happy!

Here is my unboxing of my first Pause subscription box in April!

April was all about reading and finding calm through reading. In order to embrace pausing though reading, this month included a task where we make Pompom book marks.

With green yarn it was lovely to follow the guide and find calm whilst making a little pompom bookmark.
