Weight gain.......

I know this might not be the most relevant topic for this sub, but I’m sure many of you have been through something similar. I’m in my second semester and really want to gain weight, but being a hosteller makes it nearly impossible. The food here is awful, and cooking isn’t allowed, so I’m stuck with whatever is served. No matter how much I eat, it just doesn’t seem to help.

I weigh only 50 kg, and honestly it’s starting to affect me. People constantly mock me, throw jokes my way, and move on even my own friends. I try to laugh it off, but deep down it hurts. It’s frustrating when you want to change something about yourself but feel completely powerless.

Has anyone else been in this situation? How did you deal with it? I’d really appreciate any advice on how to gain weight or at least not let the negativity get to me.
