y'all ever just have a meltdown over 𝙛𝙤𝙤𝙙, of all things? like food isn't something I have a lot of and when anyone eats something of mine it makes me want to just have an entire meltdown? I've been denied food my entire life so someone eating something that's mine just feels like I'm being denied food again and I hate feeling like that because to me it feels stupid but it's still super important to me. I just want to be able to not freak out when food is involved 😭 Just the thought of someone saying they'll get or make food and then changing their mind gives me so much anxiety and when it does happen I just shut down or hide in my room 😵

      I feel this, like I'm 4 of 7 kids and my parents would never make enough for any of us to feel full so the kid who didn't get any in time would starve. So even though I'm a grown man with two kids and a partner I love if they eat all the food before I can get some it can cause me to spiral even though usually there is enough that I can make more. Just the momentary thought that I'd have to go without is enough. Your feelings are normal and valid especially if you have food related trauma.

      You are valid. You're feelings are valid. You're allowed to be upset.
