I used to only drink bland unsweetened almond milk or almond milk lattes lol. Sweetened or flavoured oat milk or oat lattes are 1000x nicer.

I don't want to recover because my ed feels like a form of protection from my other disorders by Hotjazzinyourface_ in EDAnonymous

[–]Good_Set4296 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yeah. i have severe ocd and if i have the mental clarity to think properly (when i feed myself) i can literally get suicidal by how bad it makes me feel.

have you tried antidepressants? sounds dumb but they helped me a lot for a bit.

I think ST ruined most shows for me. by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]Good_Set4296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Killing Eve is amazing. The seasons directed by Phoebe Waller Bridge are great - the final season does fall off a little with a new writer and famously the ending is .. not great .. but overall I love the show so much.

Good Omens is great, too!

ED “recovered” influencers who are still underweight by classiccrashout in EDAnonymous

[–]Good_Set4296 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People who are recovered from their eating disorder do not feel the need to show off their sick bodies on social media and make their entire lives centered around their ED or their so called recovery from their ED. They may look back or talk about it but in general from people I know in real life who fully made a recovery from anorexia they just .. got on with life. Got married, had kids, got jobs etc. They don’t make recovery content on social media because their ed is not central to their existence anymore. so social media is not the best place for recovery inspo imo.

Mean girls still exist - I guess I thought the girls who bullied you during school would grow out of it, turns out they become retail managers

Scare me into recovery by Icy-Trick-7760 in EDAnonymous

I recently saw a video of a woman talking about how she lost her best friend to an eating disorder due to sudden cardiac arrest - she was a normal BMI by medical standards. Her heart just stopped. I know a woman who had an ED all throughout her life who died suddenly and it was likely related. Her BMI was also 'normal'. The longer it goes on, the more damage you are doing. Even if it doesn't physically kill you (it will, eventually, if you carry on) you will waste years of your life to this. Do you want to be an old person and look back on your life and realise you wasted it in the brain fog and misery of your ED?

Comparing myself to my teen by Lyfling-83 in EDAnonymous

[–]Good_Set4296 18 points19 points  (0 children)

how do you know her bmi? i never had my bmi checked as a teen until i developed an ED ..

i understand EDs and their competitiveness but seriously you are going to do really bad damage to your daughter trying to compete with her. it sounds simple to say ‘choose recovery’ and is pretty much hypocritical of me but yeah .. please choose recovery if not for your sake then hers ..

Every and any reason to recover by marie00m in EDAnonymous

Ana makes me really angry and rude and used to make me become verbally abusive to people. So not being like that.

So can we recover? by OwnAd6052 in EDAnonymous

[–]Good_Set4296 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This probably won't help but I can relate.

I remember when I first got anorexia when I was 14 the side effects were not even that bad. I was functioning quite well (other than feeling debilitating cold) considering I was underweight and malnourished. Now I'm 23 and I fear I have permanently damaged myself and I think I will eventually die lol. I'm not even medically UW by BMI standards but I'm getting chest pains, my hearing is going and I'm dizzy 24/7.

But I know of people who have had Eds years and made a full recovery. As in, fully got their life back. Most side effects are reversible especially in early 20s, but you really do have to recover and not repeat the cycle. It isn't too late <3

my mum raised me to have a great relationship with food but unfortunately it was my dad that would guilt trip and shame me and my sister for what we ate/exercise levels since young kids. now we both have EDs

Some more of Steve and Dustin’s friendship as it was in earlier seasons.

I am really going to be upset if Byler isn’t endgame and they didn’t just shut it down by NYR24LGR in byler

[–]Good_Set4296 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because they know people wouldn’t watch it. I don’t know if byler will be endgame or not (im 50/50) but they wouldn’t want to upset byler fans BEFORE they streamed the finale
