Working in a profession where you’re judged every time you have to perform can be pretty bloody draining. When you’re being judged on things that are sometimes beyond your control, like how your body looks, off-hand comments and trolling can enter a whole other level of upsetting.
Take it from Gigi Hadid, who was so over people calling her too skinny after walking at various fashion shows over the last couple of weeks that she hopped on Twitter to take a stand against the bullshit.

According to Mayo Clinic, Hashimoto’s disease is a condition in which the immune system attacks the thyroid, resulting in inflammation that can often lead to an underactive thyroid gland.

Gigi finishes up her impassioned post by asking for people to be a little bit more empathetic on the internet, something I truly believe we should all learn from.
At the end of the day, it might seem to you that celebrities are just things to look at on the internet but they are actual people with real feelings and emotions. Don’t waste your time hating on people and instead focus that energy of something or someone you love.
