Hi Alida,
No, there isn't anything wrong with you. I get what you are going through. I'm not overweight, but I'm very bottom heavy and feel insecure about it, especially during my school years and I was so worried about what other people would think about me that I tried not to eat lunch at school because I was worried that if they saw me eat, they would think I was "being fatty" even though it's something that everyone does and we need to do it to stay alive and stuff.
I'm sorry your friend misinterpreted what you are going through. She may realize one day that you weren't just attention seeking and will feel kind of bad about it.
If you are getting irritated easily, that can definitely be a sign of mental illness such as depression. Do you think you might have depression?
I read qurikywords answer and they say that feeling insecure can make you irritated easily. I didn't know that, but it does sound like it could very well be true. That might be why I felt this was during my school years. I can't even remember getting that mad most of the time, but people would say that I got furious over the smallest of things and blow up at people. My mental health was really bad.
If this is affecting you to the point where you feel the need to eat lunch in the school bathroom and it's also really affecting your mood, you are definitely going through a hard time and it would be great to reach out to a professional. There's nothing wrong with you, you're just going through a stressful time and professional help can really help with that.
Has anyone at school commented on your body and said that there is something "wrong" with it or did you just start feeling this way or was it a mix of different things?
