Or why isn\u2019t my hair that way? Or why is my face this way?\u2019 Or even feature-wise, sometimes I would just really look at myself and pick myself apart for no reason. There is so much going on in the world today, adding self-esteem onto that is really tough. If you can\u2019t mentally, emotionally, or physically love who you are it becomes really difficult to even be happy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Not that you need to be reminded since we are literally hit in the face with this everyday (yes, hi, <strong>Instagram<\/strong>), but the world\u2019s perception of the \u201cideal\u201d body is so toxic and whack! And it doesn\u2019t help that social media and social media users, especially those who like to write about someone\u2019s size, continue to push these harmful standards. SMH!<\/p>\n<p>At least the influencer added that she learned to ease up and give her some space from the pressure.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI know I\u2019ve not been eating the best during quarantine or maybe not working out as much and watching a lot of TV, but we need to give ourselves grace.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Addison went on to note that she\u2019s been going to therapy to work on how to handle the negativity.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSelf-worth is a big thing that I\u2019ve been working on the past few months because it\u2019s definitely a real struggle, and it does affect you in your daily life, not having high self-worth. Therapy is a great way to work on that and it\u2019s an outlet to speak on things that are bothering you internally. Just being able to have someone to talk to has been a big thing for me and understanding that if you let people understand you a little more, then they will.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We couldn\u2019t agree more! There\u2019s nothing like a little therapy and self-work to help you figure things out. In terms of the negative comments, which the dancer mentions come from an understandable sense of \u201cenvy,\u201d she tries not to let them bother her. The TikTok personality, who has over 76.5 million followers on the app, said she recognizes their resentment because she has felt that in the past, too.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThat doesn\u2019t define me, and they don\u2019t really truly know me in my heart. There\u2019s going to be people that don\u2019t like you and that want to tear you down, but you have to love yourself for who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As they say, haters are going to hate! Unfortunately, this is not the first time Addison has had to deal with body-shaming comments. In April of 2020, she had to address the recent influx of messages and videos online about her figure, tweeting:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt definitely hurts to see people on my fyp calling me \u2018a whale\u2019 and saying \u2018she\u2019s fat now\u2019 and I just want to encourage everyone who hears these things about themselves to love yourself!! If you are healthy and happy, do NOT listen to these hurtful comments. You are perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It definitely hurts to see people on my fyp calling me \u201ca whale\u201d and saying \u201cshe\u2019s fat now\u201d and I just want to encourage everyone who hears these things about themselves to love yourself!! if you are healthy and happy, do NOT listen to these hurtful comments. you are perfect.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/whoisaddison\/status\/1252766561955241984?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 22, 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Nothing but facts!
