i can barely eat because I feel fat everywhere.
and my mom is always telling me that i'm fat too.
i have stupid thighs that literally no other guys have.
i honestly feel guilty for just having a bagel.
i wish i could just be skinny.
and before anyone says that girls have it worse, shut up, okay?
i know how you feel.
it isnt right to feel bad about yourself though, its not the right answer.
dont tell yourself you need to look better, because everybody has their imperfections, and yes, even the boys and girls in magazines.
even the 'perfect' people at school are imperfect.
dont tell yourself you arent worth it. ive made that mistake, it really doesnt help.
and if people tell you that you arent worth it, dont listen to them. dont feel bad about eating, i remember i didnt eat much at one stage and started feeling unhealthy. now im eating regularly, and it feels good.
and girls dont necessarily have it worse, do they? girls and boys should be treated equally, and not just with jobs and house work, but with everything.
things will get better, i promise <3

aw, im so sorry!
it isnt your fault that happened. dont tell yourself youre a bad person, or that you feel like one, because you didnt cause his death. like you mentioned, it was health issues.
i know i had an uncle who died before i was born, about 20-odd years ago, he died of lung cancer. so in a way, i can relate.
its really hard to deal with deaths, and i know so much about it. this is not the same as your dad, but my cat of 16 years died on christmas. so yeah, 2016 has been pretty bad.
just think about the future and all the wonderful things that could happen. if youre in your last year of school, think about graduation. theres lots of things that the future holds for you. your dad is in a better place.
have a wonderful 2017, and everything will get better. <3

oh my goodness i am so sorry. its really bad that this is what the world has come to. and im so sorry you had to go through being molested. its ok to get upset, your mom shouldnt have been mad at you! how would she feel if it happened to her and her mother/father/guardian started shouting at her and yelling at her, when before they were joking about it?
molesting is not something to joke about. its very serious and should be taken seriously.
i suggest talking to a close friend about this, because youd be able to trust them 100%. just, make sure you dont bring it up to your mom because theres a chance she will get more angry.
i hope this helps. <3
