looking back my mom most definitely had it too. and the wildest part was that drs said i was causing it myself by smoking weed. weed is the only reason i was ever able to eat, sleep, or deal with the pain of being so malnourished. malnourishment is so fucking uncomfortable and messes with your mental health so badly. it gives you insomnia. i was fucking miserable in my body and weed was the only reason i survived.

i almost didn’t go to the endoscopy appointment where i got diagnosed bc i was convinced after years of drs telling me it was my fault. everyone around me dismissed me when i’ve known something was wrong since i was 5 years old. i hate my family and all medical professionals bc they failed me so badly at every point
