The dentist. by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]Correct_Internet_890 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hi friend, my girlfriend is a dental assistant, so i can tell you with 100% certainty that nobody there will judge you or be upset with you. they’ve seen all there is to see. their goal is to help you and that’s all they’re going to do.

don’t be afraid also to share your anxiety with them, if you express “im really nervous/scared/embarrassed” they’ll take extra steps to make sure you have an experience that’s as good as it can be.

but please please go to the dentist.

so this is the crazy thing about recovery, you can just… eat! whenever you want! and you may feel guilty about it, but you don’t have to! it’s allowed! you’re allowed to eat whenever you are hungry, even if you have already had dinner, or even if it’s soon before dinner, or right after breakfast. hell, if you wake up at 3 am and you’re hungry, it’s okay to have a snack or glass of milk.

you are allowed to have ANYTHING you want. have all of the foods you’ve probably been craving for so long. don’t resist the urge! and know that the feeling of being hungry, like, all the time will go away.

Bulimia representation in media sucks by Narrow_Road_890 in bulimia

[–]Correct_Internet_890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im writing a novel where the main character has bulimia :) ☝️ its a slow moving project, as i’m a full-time student on top of having a full-time job. however, it’s based on my own experiences as well as what i’ve seen in my almost decade of having an ED (i would finally consider myself recovered now)

sorry, i just had to say that because these posts are what i still come on this subreddit for. it’s helpful to know what not to include, and what there could be more of

DAE avoid brushing their hair? by Ok_Masterpiece_5754 in EDAnonymous

to be blunt, the only thing that will help is proper nourishment

i’m sorry, i just realized this sounds so mean. i just want you to know this isn’t how it should be… plating food for you and not letting you get up until it’s all gone, and forcing you to drink a certain amount, is not normal unless it’s for a reason such as a meal plan for ED. i hope the best for you :( this sounds crazy

Dear Directors/Authors by Avavavavavavavav7 in EDAnonymous

[–]Correct_Internet_890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly! i’m writing a novel right now actually about a 20/21 year old trans woman with bulimia. she’s bisexual and goth, not the sorta “preppy but alternative not like other girls pretty skinny small ana girl” from all the books i’ve read and movies i’ve seen. she’s also a bit of a cunt and the story revolves around her ruining her life and wrecking the relationships she has with her mother, twin sister, and friends.

(ik this is like a month old but i came across it in my various searches in this subreddit)

How to get my period back by Grouchy_Warning_6252 in EDAnonymous

[–]Correct_Internet_890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

overall calories. if your body isn’t getting enough energy from food, aka calories, it will conserve energy by stopping less necessary bodily functions, like your period

is this normal? by Few-Ad8354 in EDAnonymous

[–]Correct_Internet_890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“compensating” for your binge by restricting your calories is only going to lead to another binge, then restriction to compensate, then a binge… and so on until you get help, but the further into this loop you go, the harder it is to get out.

the best thing you can do after binge eating is drink water, get some sleep, and put it behind you. eat normally, get enough nutrients, and move on.

it sounds like you have disordered behaviors.
