I Have Gigantomastia

The past few weeks have been really rough on me, both physically and emotionally. And I have no one to rely on for support. I would confide in my mom except she is partially responsible for how I feel. I used to have a confidant who always helped me through these times. Because he wasn’t family and his deceased wife had suffered gigantomastia, I could confide in him on numerous issues I can’t with others. I always felt like a burden to him. He would always give me courage and perspective when I wanted to do nothing but feel sorry for myself. I corresponded with him through an online support group community that has become defunct. I gave him my email address but I haven’t heard from him since. I feel like he left me because I became too much for him to take. I wish he would get in touch with me…

I never realized how many people objectify those with a disease until I started looking for help for you. In my zeal to find you a support group I found several sexual fetishes that revolve around it and then I would go in and research the forums and I was appalled at some of the comments I saw from men trying to get their jollies.I can see why you said you feel isolated. I wish people would stop to think about the person behind the screenname... The person beyond the disease. I'm not giving up. I want to find you a supportive group so much. (no humor intended)
