To have cried in the pub toilet

Because a man I don't know at the bar said "oh wow, you look just like Bridget Jones!"?

I'm 28 and not that it matters a size 8. I've had a hugely difficult week and felt quite confident today and now I feel crushed and stupid and fat and disgusting.

CherylBlossom · 11/03/2017 17:42

I'm very sorry you're in a bad way. But your experiences do not negate anyone else's. You deserve support as much as anyone, as does the OP.

CherylBlossom · 11/03/2017 17:44

In fact, I would encourage you to reach out to someone in real life because your posts are quite concerning.

NotYoda · 11/03/2017 17:44

BBC

Is this thread helping you?

I think it's making you feel worse.

I would get yourself away from it if it's upsetting you this much. People will react against what you say and that will escalate things

PiesDescalzos · 11/03/2017 17:46

BBC Flowers please would you consider starting a thread so we can support you? It's hard to here with so many different things being talked about with regard to the op. You do not deserve to die, you do deserve help. Please don't let one persons' thread set you down a negative path. I think stepping away from this one is best and starting a new one. Let us try to help you if we can, even just to talk and distract you a little.

Don't

roarityroar · 11/03/2017 17:46

Out for help *

And no, I spoke of my own feelings about myself, not my judgment of others.

bbc You are obviously in a lot of distress. Could you Google some local counselling services? If you are really in a bad way, could you phone 101? Do you have children? It's terrifying to feel you can't cope - but you ARE entitled to help, and must get it. My own issue is alcohol abuse, but I've had to ask for help myself.

roarityroar · 11/03/2017 17:53

Because of the level of aggression aimed at me, an anonymous person looking for support.

I don't understand why she is having a go at me

OP posts:
OnionKnight · 11/03/2017 17:54

Neither do I but it doesn't mean they're a troll, they're obviously distressed.

NotYoda · 11/03/2017 17:56

We are all anonymous people. You don't get to decide who is real or not

roarityroar · 11/03/2017 17:57

Hang on. BBC why do you think I'm different? What is different about me? Why have I managed to get support when you haven't?

Because it's a lottery. Not because of intrinsic privilege or someone being worth more.

I'm sorry you're hurting but coming here and attacking me won't help, it's just turning my own anxiety into hyperdrive and reinforcing my own belief that I'm an awful person whose pain and sadness isn't valid

OP posts:
NotYoda · 11/03/2017 17:58

I don't think this is helping you, is it OP?

roarityroar · 11/03/2017 17:59

It was.
