If they're your friends, you aren't a bother. That's the depression talking. If they can't personally handle it, they're gonna try their best to point you in the direction of someone who can.
I don't know too much about your situation, but maybe discussing options with your doctor might be a good first step?
You're worth it, I believe in you!

No, burando is burando for a reason. Buy what you like. The concept of a brand whore was a western invention back when brand was super hard to get overseas. Now that there's wider availability (and lower prices) the only people still using that term are salty itas

I mean, you've probably gotten this before but if you're upset, you can try to lose some weight? At least take baby steps, like maybe consciously getting a little more exercise in than you usually do, or ease yourself into prepping a smaller, healthy meal a day and gradually replacing your current diet. CICO is the baseline for actually losing weight, but it's easier to make the switch if it's gradual
And, worst case, consciously getting some extra nutrients in your diet will help your hair/skin/mood. It's honestly something I should try myself

>Friend thinks lolita is beautiful
>Got her AP jsk/head bow a couple years back
>She wants to now get more into lolita
>JSK is a just fit
>She's aware she's larger and is trying really hard to still look good
>Has been letting me give advice on where to shop, be her lolita senpai
>Simotaniously MM/VM-tier classic lolita and coach for chubby baby sweet lolita
>Feels good, but also don't want to let her down
She's had disordered eating in the past so mentioning weight loss is not an option at the moment. It's just been such a cultural shift for me now trying to find resources for someone so different from myself. Any advice?

Thank you, Anon, I appreciate it.
Yeah, everyone is going to have a different opinion and I wholeheartedly respect that but it's not an excuse to be rude.
I'm going to try and brush off the comment and move on.
