Ariel Winter opened up about the constant body-shaming she endured in a new interview with Teen Vogue.

The 22-year-old actress said that after she switched psychiatric medications and subsequently lost weight, people both criticised and congratulated her on the change something she says is besides the point.

A lot of people commented on my post like, No, she changed her antidepressant because she wanted to lose weight,' Winter told the magazine, adding, No! I thought every medication I was on, I was going to stay at that weight, and that was fine. It had nothing to do with that.

Winter said that after she revealed her weight loss, people started messaging her on social media asking what medication she was on.

I get so many DMs [asking] What medication are you on? I want to lose weight; I want that medication,' Winter revealed. What I would really like for people to understand is, every medication affects everyone differently. Were all made differently. Everything is different.

Even though the actress has been able to rise above the body-shaming and constant scrutiny she faces, she told Teen Vogue that the hateful comments still have an effect her.

People on the internet really suck. It bothered me for so many years I mean, it still does. It never goes away, Winter said. When someone calls you a fat slut, youre not feeling happy about it. It doesnt matter what you look like now, it doesnt matter what you looked like then. Youre still going to read that and be like, Oh, that sucks.'

This isnt the first time Winter has spoken up about body-shaming.

Last year, she expertly shut down a commenter on one of her Instagram posts who accused her of having plastic surgery and chopping up her body, telling him that she didnt get plastic surgery and that he was not being supportive of women.

Winters Modern Family costar Sarah Hyland has also come to Winters defence in the past, shutting down commenters who criticised her sheer dress in February, and even slammed pervs and creeps who fixated on a braless photo of Winter in 2018.
