I spent my life up to 27 yrs old battling with depression, anxiety, self harm, suicidal thoughts and knowing something wasn’t right with me until I was diagnosed with BPD and CPTSD. AfTer my diagnosis I was put on Zoloft and told I may have be on it for life. Since I’ve been on my meds I’ve gained a lot of weight, despite diet n exercise and visits to the dietician etc. I was told my weight gain was a direct result side affect of the meds., but for the first time in my life, the meds helped life to be worth living. Fast forward 3 yrs, we moved towns to be close to my husbands family, and my father in law and brother in law carry on about my weight. And my sister in law told me her husband was saying that I’m fat and lazy, a bad mother because I’m fat and a bad influence to my sister in law because of my weight (as if my weight is somehow contagious )They know about my mental illness and meds side affects and everything but they ignore that. I’ve been so angry and depressed, I’ve stopped taking my meds against my doctors advice just so I my weight stops, I’ve felt suicidal and self harming and now don’t leave the house. ( I don’t act on the urges but I feel them). I tried to talk to my sister in law about the things he’s said but she just makes excuses and says he’s “just blunt”. Just blunt? Blunt is honest, so she thinks it too?? I don’t have anything to do with him anymore, but I’m even splitting on her now. She dismisses what was said and makes excuses for him but ever since she told me what he said I can’t let it go.. I use to think so highly of her but after her never once acknowledging how much it hurt me, I’ve split on her completely. Am I overreacting??
