Today, I've lost so much weight from depression that I don't fit into women's clothing anymore. There's nothing like trying to find dress pants in the kids section. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after losing 20 pounds, I decided to purchase new clothes. All of the clothes at the store were still too small for me. FML
Today, when I tried on a pair of pants at the mall, I asked the salesperson if I could have the next size up. She informed me that there wasn't a next size up. I have to LOSE weight to fit into the biggest pair of pants the store makes. FML
Today, I have to go on a diet, because I can't afford to buy bigger clothes. FML
Today, I realized that I haven’t lost weight. All my clothes have just stretched to fit. FML
Today, my boyfriend suggested I try on some old clothes, after weeks of eating better and exercising. The good news: they fit again, and are even a little bit loose. The bad news: somehow, I look fatter now than I did before I started trying to lose weight. FML
Today, I put on my "fat jeans" because none of my other jeans fit. Neither do my fat jeans. FML
Today, I received the beautiful dress I'd ordered on the internet. It's a size smaller than my usual, just to encourage me to lose weight. I managed to fit into it and wear it all day, but I've now been struggling for a couple of hours to remove it without tearing it to bits. FML
Today, despite having pretty bad social anxiety and clinical depression, and hardly ever leaving the house, I spent an hour and a half at a store figuring out what size pants I am. They just cancelled my order. FML
Today, my pants felt a little looser than usual. Thinking I'd lost weight, I proudly went about my day. It wasn't until much later that I realised I hadn't lost any weight at all; my fly was down. FML
Today, I finally lost enough weight to fit into the beautiful dress that I ordered for my senior prom. I graduated from high school in 2010. FML

The same thing happened to me. On top of the depression, I felt physically ill a lot. Not fun at all. It's a super shitty thing to go through. It helps to speak with a doctor about the weight loss. You could make a plan on how to get healthier and at least try to physically feel a little better. I hope that things turn around for you!

There are some brands with petite lines. I hope you'll feel better soon!

I have the same issue. Not only are buying clothes super depressing but people think they can say all kinds of horrible things to you that they would never say to a heavy person and total strangers think they have a right to put their hands on you usually while saying "Your so LITTLE!" like that gives them the right.
