I walk alone, my shadow is the only one who walks besides me

So just wanted to say happy belated 4th of july and hope everyone enjoyed their day with  family and friends, didn't have much time to write because i went to bbq and realized i should have stayedhome. Just an update, i haven't cut in one week but its like i find myself more and more depressed and feel like i should.  I realized also at my family's bbq how much i am teased about my weight or just joked on about being big, its like i get snickers and stares. This made me stay upstairs yesterday in my cousin bedroom, the only person who accepted me and i ever felt close with was my father and now that he has been gone for quite some time and its like i miss him everyday. My mother doesn't understand me, and it hurts that i feel she doesn't love me anymore, like she wishes i wasn't in the house with her or anything. The constant talking underneath her breath and the way she looks me just reassures me. Like she says she wants to sell the house, and cant wait until i leave and things of that nature. Like next semester, I have classes until 9' o clock in the night, so i wont see her as much and I will try to just stay out her way.
     Herself and my family always jokes about me and i never could speak to them about anything, and when i try to speak to my mother and tell her that i want to speak with a psychiatrist because i know these feelings that i have aren't normal  and their is so much more and i feel they can help me suppress the emotions and she just laughs and tells me they will make me crazy, she becomes so closed minded. Often times my depression does affect everything i do and rather just stay home  and just stare out the window. My brother often time makes fun of me for just staying home and tells me i have no friends and  just honestly hurts my feelings. Often times i feel like just running away or just end it all and maybe everyone will stop bothering me and i wont have to feel this way anymore. As for my weight, its like i want to wake up and wish i was a different person, its like i feel like trying to deprive myself or even vomit foods, because maybe if i was smaller and they accepted me i wouldn't be teased as much. I often wonder what do people actually like about me, whats my purpose here? I may never know...

I'm sorry your having such a hard time. Your feelings are normal. Why shouldn't you feel rejected and depressed by people who make fun of you. Anyone would.

Weight does not make the person. I do understand how if you are heavy society is well, mean. But your weight is not who you are. I was once 200 lbs and I'm 5"1". After diets that didn't work one day I just decided I was loosing it. After loosing it the unhappiness didn't go away, I went to counseling to deal with what was really bugging me. I just want you to know the weight isn't the problem, how you feel about yourself is.

Life will be better when you are away from your family. Some families just aren't helpful and you have to cut them out or limit your contact. If you believe and make a plan life will get better.

Often depression clouds your vision and so because of it you are not able to see the beautiful parts of yourself. I do understand that it is hard to believe that you are beautiful but in your writing I could sense how compassionate you are. Do not let weight define who you are and more importantly do not let peoples perception of you define who you are. Your family is very insensitive and I know the constant jokes and negative comments are hard to deal with but like Lori said, make a plan for yourself so that you don't have to stay in that situation forever. You mentioned school..are you attending college? If so, a lot times schools offer counseling to students or have resources available to help you get counseling. I know you are having a hard time but please know that we all have a purpose for being here. I know that you have purpose even if you can't see it yet. Please, please hang in there. PM me anytime if you need to talk.
