I Battle Self-hatred, Anxiety, And Depression

So I'm taking meds for my mental illness. And gaining weight is one of its side effects. And people at school are teasing me that I'm fat. Then one of my "friends" told me, "Hey you're getting fat." And I told her, "Yeah, it's the side effect of my meds." Then she said, "Oh right, because you're bipolar." Then she and my other friend laughed at me. I don't even understand why people could be so mean like that.

First off, mental illnesses suck... The best thing you can do is do everything you can to be okay for you. Get rid of these so called friends you have. They're not friends if they can say mean things like that. You are taking meds to help yourself feel better. The good news is they will be able to help you.. There are no meds for assholes.. They're stuck with that.

They don't understand what it's like for you, obviously. How annoying. You need some friends who are more empathetic. I hope you can find one or two. --DW

I do hope I can find someone who understands me 🙁

@JoannaRose: Keep looking and put yourself out there, who knows?! I know it's not easy but you need support from family and friends both.

they have no idea and are anxious and confused. they are not laughing at you, they just have no idea what the meds are like.
I'm sorry, people suck.
Well done on you for getting help for your problems, you know you will lose that extra weight soon enoughand if you didn't you would still be a beautiful person. Your so-called friend is ugly in ternally and she cannot change that
