“Self – love”
By: Althea Lauryn C. Yangat
“You’re too fat! Get on a diet.”
You should prolly shut your mouth and keep quiet
“You’re too skinny! You should eat!”
Okay? Can you just not meddle and quit?
Body shaming is just not it
In terms of a ‘beautiful body’ there’s no standard to meet
All bodies are good and are beautifully made
It’s just in the society that a ‘beautiful body’ is mistakenly portrayed
Never should a mental health be sacrificed
Just for the sake of having a body that’s being idolized
Society’s standard of beauty shouldn’t be given much attention
To prevent those insecurities and depression
Having insecurities isn’t easy
For being insecure may lead to anxiety
Anxiety that causes people to be depressed
And depression that may lead to suicide, I guess?
Me, myself has undergone through this
“You should eat this and that, at least”
My physical appearance has always been attacked
Causing me to breakdown, and it caused a lot of impact
I had a hard time building myself up again
I thought it’s me who is the problem, since then
But I realized it isn’t me but the society is
I should focus on loving myself more and not on the society, to please
