I’m 370 lbs and today I had a doctor tell me that people who are skinnier than me are all like that because they work out and eat right. Can I get a roll call for the people who are less than 370 lbs and eat like shit or don’t work out? Because I’m pretty sure you exist.

Also, one time I had a doctor ask me “are you sure?” 4 times after I said I didn’t have any breathing problems. Like nah I’m just big.

    Pretty much every other doctor I deal with is great - including or maybe especially the alternative Suboxone doc I sometimes get (this dude likes to make sure I only get him because the other doc actually accepts that I'm still ok with being on maintenance and don't feel able to come off the Suboxone yet. Tool.) My psych is great, GP is fine, and so on. "For some reason" it's just the addiction doctor who's a prick.
