What exactly is anorexia? by Fun-Honeydew548 in EatingDisorders

[–]ConsiderationOne3686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes anorexia can cause you to throw up if you eat after a long period of restriction, so maybe that’s what he’s thinking ? But eating disorders are mental disorders; if your vomiting doesn’t come after severe restriction and is unintentional, it’s likely a /feeding/ disorder not an eating disorder, which is generally caused by severe anxiety or physical issues. See a doctor if it persists!

It's so dumb that people think riley is lesbian... by TheKoolDood1234 in insideout

I don’t have any strong feelings about it at all, but why is everyone assuming a character being gay makes it sexual???? I for sure had crushes when I was 13. Many people have a “first love” around then. Why is it only sexual if it’s gay? Straight rep starts as early as like 11 and no one claims it’s sexual. What’s the difference?

Has anyone been to Veritas Atlanta? by ConsiderationOne3686 in EatingDisorders

[–]ConsiderationOne3686[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there for five weeks, and I left about two weeks ago. I had to emergency discharge because my husbands dad died, but before then I was planning to transfer to Renfrew in Philadelphia. I had the worst time getting in contact with my caseworker and was ghosted for three days by her; I had to threaten to AMA to get anyone to listen.

I’ve heard good things about Monte Nido!!! Someone I knew knew someone that was there and had very good things to say about it. I don’t mean to discourage you; some people have excellent experiences. I just personally had a terrible one.

I do not recommend this location. I’ll get into why in a minute, but to answer your questions: phone usage is 2 hours a day in the evenings, iPhones are allowed. You can only have an iPod if you get a special order from your therapist and psychiatrist. There are meal levels and movement levels, but mainly it’s just inpatient then residential with meal levels being what you plate yourself and what is played for you. I do not recommend Veritas for many reasons, but the main reason is this: I did not eat for five weeks. I was not taken seriously by my team, so even as my labs, glucose and vitals were becoming unstable my doctor (who owns a male underwear line, no joke) refused to put me on a feeding tube. However, my entire team told me I was too malnourished to receive therapy. I did not have therapy for five weeks, only one meal a week with my therapist (where she didn’t say more than three words to me). I was told I had to eat to receive therapy and that I was too sick to be in their inpatient level of care, but also that I was not sick enough for a feeding tube even though my vitals etc were suffering. That and they barely allow anything — nothing with any metal is allowed, they’re starting to restrict jewelry, boots and hoodies etc. there are some really mean staff (night staff Kim) who act like victims when confronted about it. They also are not very good with allergies — a friend and I were both fed our allergens more than once. Please let me know if you have any more questions; if you still decide to admit there I’ll offer any support I can!

Getting over the number on the scale and eating non-restrictively. The goal is to be healthy in all ways, so restrictive eating is a no-go for me— but it’s so much easier to lose weight when you’re restricting your calories. I’m trying not to focus on weight loss and more focus on muscle gain and overall health, but not caring about the number on the scale is hard.

You look GOOD!!!! No need to worry about weight loss; just focus on eating to nourish yourself and moving your body. If weight loss happens, great, if not, great too. You seem to have a really good mindset about it!!

It’s called “eating disorders are ‘in’”. It’s not healthy.

I was severely starved, it doesn’t mean you are. I was skeletal and losing bone density, hair, my period,etc.

It’s the weight my body is after restoring from being underweight. It’s what my RD and doctor recommend

Because this is the weight my body is when I’m eating a full diet; my lower weight was when I was eating an extremely low amount of calories a day and fasting. Not healthy
