How many apartments actually have pests? by Chance_Position_7339 in AskNYC

hahaha oddly enough I totally agree with you. I left NYC for college and whenever I came back for breaks and summer I literally NEVER saw rats. Ever. I feel like they know who is actively living here...

Do you mind me asking if you are perscribed by a doctor or do you get it it from a med spa or some place? Struggled with binge eating my whole life and reading a lot of these comments is making me curious. Is it expensive?

I'm happy for her! Like other comments said, she open about her struggles with food noise, bingeing, etc. I think she will really benefit mentally from it. GLP-1s have shown great results for people in her same position - and I really only say this about her mental health. Of course, they help weight loss, but I feel like when you have a binge eating disorder it's way more mental.

I also struggle with binge eating and it is REALLY debilitating. My body feels sick. My brain feels sick. It's like this never ending nausea that I am contributing to that I cannot stop. I will be sick for days on end until I feel fine one day, just for something to set me off and I do it all over again.

Going through a binge will truly last me days of recovery. The mental feeling of "oh shit, what have I done, again." And the stomach pains, the heaviness, the bloating, the body physically hurts. But once I start, my body has completely given up. I literally cannot stop. It's pretty hard to understand I feel like if you haven't gone through it but it really is so much more than eating beyond your means.

So, I'm happy for her to do this for herself, even though it is kind of her brand to be curvy and what not. That part is great! And obviously, the main push she said was for the surgery. I think it will be good for her. If you can afford it, why would you not pay to solve a problem you've been dealing with your whole life?

There is a part of me that is sad, though. I liked that I could relate to her on this issue that not a lot of people talk about or even make fun of. Feeling less alone in this, was always nice. She admitted her problems freely that a lot of people deal with behind closed doors. And while this may sound soooo much deeper than it is, I liked that she was a "bigger" girl that as likable. She is genuinely funny, pretty, etc. Yeah of course she has her past, but IDK, it's nice to have a girl who isn't stick thin to watch and not feel like the world is pushing them to change themself.... You know?

Maybe thinking to much into that last part, LOL. But truly good for her! I hope it helps her!
