I am so sorry that people call you name that is very immature of them..........Does your mom know how you are feeling about the nick names? Has she taken you to any type of therapy , since you claim to be out of control with eating? You honestly could do with therapy as you seem to have many areas in your life since a long age bothering you.................Please go and seek professional help ! Have your mother make an appointment for your medical doctor and talk about everything that is going on in your life present and pass..........................people on this board are very willing to help everyone, but sometimes it is b est left for the real professionals i.e your medical doctor to help you with issues first to get you on track ...........Wishing you all the luck...You are too, young to feel so low....and there is so much positive things you can do to pick your spirits up..............but you must first seek medical advice...........................Gillian

I know it is easier said than done but try to ignore the names... These people who started the whole name calling are doing it because there is something that they do not like about themselves and they make fun of other people to make themselves feel better. No one is perfect and eventually these people will move on. I've found that one way to make yourself look better is to ignore what all the jerks say and be proud of your body. This way if someone says "look at that Bubble Ass" and you just ignore them, or you say something like "So you enjoy looking at my butt huh?" they have nothing to go on and will give up because it will be no longer fun if they see that you aren't offended any more.
I don't know if I'm making any sense, but I hope this helps some.

I've read your previous post and you mentioned that you've had this nickname since you were very young. That being the fact, a lot of those who call you that name may actually mean no emotional harm by it, may not realize you are getting hurt by it, and are probably just using it because its been there all along. Look, even you, yourself, persist using that offending name.
Aside from the suggestions of support and possible therapy, what I suggest is for you to address this problem yourself as well, and as directly as you can. Doing something by yourself gives one that great feeling of empowerment.
First, stop calling yourself that name. You have to learn to respect yourself before people start respecting you. Secondly, when somebody calls you by that name, just smile and gently say: "Look, that name really hurts my feelings. I would really appreciate it if you could call me Dee (if that's the name you go by), instead. Thank you." Make sure you keep your cool the whole time.
If it's somebody sensible, who really did not realize that this nickname hurt you so much, I'm sure they'll stop. If it's somebody who is just purposely cruel and persist to do so even after your polite request, then this person is not really worth your time. Take comfort that you stood your ground. It will also be good if you can maintain not responding to them until they call you by the name you want to be called.
Know who you are and do not let anyone tell you otherwise.
