I've struggled with body issues since I was really young. I was never comfortable to be in shorts, or without a shirt. Just really insecure. Then in the 7th grade I stopped eating and lost thirty pounds. Being thin to begin with it was really noticeable, and my parents sent me to therapy. After I graduated from junior hi, I continued to starve myself, and not make any progress. But then I started experimenting with alcohol and that took a drastic toll on my health. Since then I've not been able to get the help I know I need.
I am 5'9" I weigh 110 pounds, and I don't know what to do.

" for starters... here's a BIG BEAR HUG from :Blues

If you want to or care to elaborate.. you are more than welcome to PM me. Body image SUCKS! Also, I am almost 30, other than my very younger years, it's taken me a long time to feel "comfy" in shorts. Put it this way, I worked in a swimming pool for nearly 7 years, I don't recall when I wore shorts working there... oh yeah, there was no A/C in the building and I was always running around...

feel free to PM me even if you just want to bullshit :) "
