Your post reeks of a lack of empathy. The same kind that inspires the thin person to tell the fat person to just not eat so much. It's perfectly fine to not understand someone else, but it's another thing to assume they can snap their fingers and instantly reform themselves in your image.

I know first-hand how difficult it is to be alive, what it's like to be downtrodden, and even how difficult it is for some of us to lose weight. But, going through the extremely terrible has given me a better perspective on: the true severity of problems, whereas one who suffers will be stuck in such a negative and hopeless mindset, even if such is not true at all; the problems that are strictly self-imposed, as opposed to those one has no control over; and the extent to which one's problems can be fixed by putting in conscious effort. As there are few who truly are unable to lose weight, without extra effort and accommodations, there are few that are truly stuck with unmanageable and crippling thanatophobia. Have you heard of former drug addicts being harder on addicts than those who've never faced the problem themselves? This is relevant to our discussion. While people need support and understanding, the victims themselves must take personal responsibility for their issues as well.
