Needing to lose weight VS. Needing to gain weight

I have a super skinny friend who always comments on how she wants to gain weight. I used to be like, "Wow, I'm jealous if THAT'S your problem! Gaining weight is easy for me."

I used to brush off that problem of hers thinking mine was worse, but I think I was wrong. Maybe they're equally as bad?

Wasn't sure where I should post this, so sorry if it should be somewhere else c:

    You're young to have reached that realization. You must be extra 'people smart'. I think it's even harder for the underweight, because they get less sympathy and education. People assume that they already know how to gain weight, but don't really want to.

    I get a lot of comments similar to "I wish I had your body!"

    I've recently starting strength training and going to the gym to hopefully put on some muscle. I don't want to be that girl who needs help out because she bought a 50lb bag of cat litter... :\
