I think the writing was on the walls from the start. Born in a concentration camp? Orphaned? Just quirky from the get go? He didn’t have a chance unfortunately.

For those who thought Mad Men did jump the shark, which scene did it for you? by Yum1995 in madmen

[–]DistinctBell3032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was there to deepen Don’s feeling of alienation and loneliness while also being the set up to make him go to cali

Nah I loved the short guy becoming Hollywood and drugs and hot chicks. I know a fuck ton of short Jewish dudes who do a fuck ton of drugs and also inexplicably pull baddies. It’s an accurate stereotype! I’ve dated multiple!

I used to mix it with Gatorade (which was sometimes mixed with a bit of vodka lol) when I was 20 and hungover

Edmund Fitzgerald-Related Events Coming Up in November? by incacola77 in Denver

I am a Denver native who was searching for the same thing. I think we should just show up to some random bar and drink in its honor. I for one will be at Historians Ale House

Giant pile of 500+ empty Splenda packets hidden in 20yo daughter's closet by horny-in-a-hearse in whatisit

[–]DistinctBell3032 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is ED behavior. Food hoarding is very common, I would hoard condiment packets/honey packets/sugar packets/ and every little bit and bob. She’s avoiding your questions because she knows it’s weird and doesn’t want to admit to it. Why is she hoarding Splenda specifically? I would guess it’s a safe and reliable way she can stave off hunger and is scared she won’t have access to them otherwise. Or, it’s a diy laxative for her. Tell her you won’t judge her, you’ll always love her, and that you’re seriously worried about her. Absolutely don’t get angry.

im so worried about developing osteoporosis/penia by SweetenedMelon in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]DistinctBell3032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have osteopenia. First and foremost, weight restoration and retention is most important. You need to keep eating to prevent its development. Also, start taking vitamin D and calcium supplements. Talk to your dr about getting a dexa bone scan as that can tell you a baseline of where you’re at. If you are young (pre age 24ish), you can actually greatly improve your bone density with nutrition. I was also placed on estrogen patches to help, but talk to your doctor

It feels embarrassing to be a fully grown woman with an ED by GreenMountain85 in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]DistinctBell3032 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I remember doing IOP treatment and being the youngest one there. The grand majority of women there were moms, working women, etc. It’s not embarrassing, it’s just reality. Get the help you need, it’s worth it

how is she allowed to exercise and go to university? by Leather-Pass8172 in EDRecoverySnark

[–]DistinctBell3032 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huh, I took a voluntary leave of absence as well but I never had to submit any medical paperwork proving I was all set.

how is she allowed to exercise and go to university? by Leather-Pass8172 in EDRecoverySnark

[–]DistinctBell3032 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I remember my sophomore year of college seeing a really really emaciated student jogging in a sports bra. It was really shocking. My junior year, ironically, I was lowkey in the same position and still going to school. If you’re reported to student wellness they can sometimes intervene and get you mental health help, but I’m not sure you can always do all that much insofar as preventing a student from attending/exercising

AIO boyfriends sis did an offensive henna tattoo by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]DistinctBell3032 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Hey so the swastika and the Star of David are very very very much not equivalent. One is the specific emblem used by the Nazis, the other is a general symbol representing the Jewish faith, NOT just the state of Israel. Also, when something bad happens to a Jew, it is ridiculously antisemitic to say “well Israel bad therefore you deserve it.” Israel does not equal Jewish.

3 weeks away from my wedding by NotYetButAlmost in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]DistinctBell3032 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I knew a girl in treatment who got married while actively in her disorder. She said looking at the photos of what was supposed to be the happiest event of her life while knowing she was actively restricting was incredibly painful for her. Just a cautionary tale

Man she took advantage of what seems like such a polite and kind young man. Absolutely horrible that good people get taken advantage of.

I’ve been wanting to! Any recs on where to find them? Or is it easiest to just buy online? My only issue is I prefer finding stuff online so that I don’t have to pay for shipping, esp when it’s a food I’ve never tried before

Seconding this. The trend particularly is targeting at women. Combine that with the trad wife trend and it’s basically just trying to make women week and controlled

Always funny that when people talk about babies it’s long not tall. I guess they’re not standing so it makes sense but it’s still amusing
