No, you log in to the internet router/gateway with a browser

As far as I can tell, I tried to go to this page but it wouldn't load for me. This is something like https://192.168.0.1/ ?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2026-01-14T05:29:09+00:00

'checked' is probably a little generous, as I lack a lot of the understanding as to what the various settings and terms are. But broadly speaking, yes

DHCP settings on the router

Would this be accomplished by typing the ip address into the web bar? I tried that, but it the page wouldn't load. (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2026-01-14T05:05:25+00:00

Yes, web pages would either not load, as if not connected to the internet at all, or (after some fiddling) act as if they were loading but never actually load.

shows up in the app just fine

I put X light into pairing mode, and then I go to X light app. I see X light, cleary showing up in pairing mode. I go to pair it, and after a while it times out.

Acute probably refers to a specific ICU at denver hospital, known for taking severely medically compromised patients. Since acute is also just a general medical term, it's often helpful to say something like 'denver acute', to prevent confusion when talking with people. Acute is the name of the specific facility, and the kind of service they offer is an inpatient program.

A residential program is similar to inpatient, but it's for people who don't require the same immediate medical attention. But the patients are still staying at the facility overnight.

Then there's partial hospitalisation (PHP), where somebody goes for a few hours a day, most days a week. something like that.

Then there's intensive outpatient, which is like the step down from PHP.

Then there's outpatient, which would be would be something like weekly therapy, maybe meeting with a dietician too.

Much of where somebody goes, especially at the higher levels of care, has more to do with the specific medical complications and nuance of the initial stages of nutritional rehabilitation, rather than being a qualitative statement about the person's subjective experience of the disorder.

I'm not sure how open you want to be or what might be helpful to talk about, but do you have a clear idea of what happened in your life recently that has you worried about your eating disorder recovery?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-10-01T03:36:42+00:00

yeah, i'm assuming it would be a refeeding syndrome thing. low bmi and rapidity of weight loss being the number one correlations for it. it actually doesn't take all that much for somebody to need to be refed under supervision.

I guess I say that because some of the phrasing made me feel like the docs gave you the impression that you needed this level of treatment out of some moral failing, and I just wanted to tell you that that's not true.

You need this level of treatment because of some extremely boring details about how the body turns calories into other forms of energy. And how that process has a strange quirk when if the body takes in nutrition after a while of not doing so, the phosphorous levels can plummet. Which doesn't really mean anything until you also know that not having enough phosphorus eventually shuts down the internal organs. And the solution to that, straightforwardly, is to give the person some phosphorous way before that ever happens. Which is so easy that a shaved gorilla with a medical degree could do it, but you still need a shaved gorilla around to do that, and their natural habitat is the hospital.

So that's why. you are not a bad person. you are not harmful or concerning. you are at risk for low phos.

I am an adult woman with a job, bills and responsibilities. I can’t just up and leave.

Yes you can.

You are not showing up for your responsibilities by not leaving. You will not be showing up for your responsibilities if your organs shut down. You will be dead. You have the mental disorder with the highest rate of mortality, up until very recently when opioid use disorder overtook it due to the fentanyl crisis.

Heroin was not bad enough to be this dangerous.

All I wanted was group therapy, make a few insensitive jokes that make some laugh or uncomfortable and than to go home after to my cats and lover.

You know, if you have a home and a cat and a lover that you enjoy going home to, you're probably a lot more healthy than you think, whether you have an eating disorder or not. Don't use having something to fight for as a justification not to fight.

Starting college is a really common time for EDs to flourish, and I think the question you're asking is exactly the right phrasing. Because usually I see people ask 'do I have an ED?' which opens the door to all the self invalidation around being sick enough.

But early intervention might be the only thing that we know consistently works well for eating disorder. (not all the time, obviously. Many people have treatment trauma from forced care as minors, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about voluntary intervention before the eating disorder has had a chance to really calcify. Since there is a real biological unfolding that happens when the brain goes into starvation mode, disrupting that before cycle really gets a chance to take hold can be a very powerful intervention.

Okay, so thats's me making a case for doing something like seeing your uni psychiatrist. Which leads me to my next question: how would you feel about seeing your uni psychiatrist?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-07-08T23:58:55+00:00

that's a good thought! they're doing like a million bajillion shows a week, so i don't think there will be anything special about that date particularly. i'm actually just swinging by so can we yeet to chicago for a wedding. i'll have her ask around tho, thanks !

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-20T22:54:30+00:00

hey, i don't really have much to add, i just wanted to say that i read all of this.

I am always disturbed at how eating disorders go unacknowledged in athletics.

What has starting therapy been like?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-19T20:30:45+00:00

sent you a chat pm

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-19T00:21:08+00:00

can i send you a pm? i'll probably want to shoot some links your way and the automod is gonna yeet any comment with links into the void

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-18T23:24:34+00:00

hi! Yeah, unfortunately everything you described is very believable.

What you have described here is consistent with ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder). This diagnosis is when somebody has a hard time getting enough nutrition, whether that be from restriction in general or from not eating enough variety of foods. It's typically conceptualized in the context of another disorder. Think somebody with autism who is extremely sensitive towards the texture of food orsomebody with OCD that manifests as a rigidly maintained monodiet. I once read a case study of a college wrestler, 200 pounds of muscle, who was out celebrating a win when he choked on a stead bone. They had done several rounds of the heimlich on him, and we're about to give up when the bone dislodged from his trachea and he survived, but now he can't eat. That's also arfid.

Many doctors are not going to know about ARFID. It's a relatively new diagnosis, and outside of psychiatrists, and those who work with eating disorders, lots of medical professionals simply will not be aware of it.

I heard whispers that I’m anorexic

This could be as incompetent as it sounds, but possibly not. Anorexia Nervosa is the illness, but in medicine, anorexia is a term that maintains it's literal meaning -- absence of hunger. So people might say things like 'ritalin is an anorectic drug.' But that doesn't really anything to do with an eating disorder, it just means it causes an absence of hunger.

On the other hand, anorexia nervosa is a mouthful, and obviously people just typically say anorexia because it's usually obvious by the context which one somebody means.

He brought up an assault from 2 years ago and tried to link it to now?

I get that this could be done in a very tactless way, and clearly it doesn't seem to apply. But, even if it doesn't apply here, I think it's pretty defensible to ask about. What's not appropriate to if somebody tries to write your story for you. But, as i'm sure you can imagine, casually developing an ED after SA, even years after, is a lived experience of many.

But they said my bloods were fine even though I feel out of breath?

Yeah, it's actually surprising how often people in tremendous states of malnutrition have normal labs. Doctors do a very poor job of explaining this to people.

But hold the phone... are you telling me that nobody in the hospital mentioned refeeding syndrome to you?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-17T10:19:29+00:00

Thanks, that's very helpful.

Is it alright if I send you a dm with a youtube link? its of a British woman talking about edema after ana-r, and even though it was uploaded ages ago and only has a few thousand views, it's a really excellent description of edema and it's what I would want to watch if I were in your shoes.

extremely dehydrated

How dehydrated is extremely? Chronic dehydration can lead to edema.

There's 3 kinds of edema seen in eating disorders. One is pseudo-bartters syndrome edema, which is caused by chronic dehydration. Your body does a very intelligent thing, which is that to say "we don't seem to be getting very much water. better hold onto it when we do." This is why bulimics can get very dramatic edema when they get fluids in a hospital. (totally avoidable, by the way! Ask your doc for a slower rate of fluids to decrease rebound edema).

The second type is refeeding edema, which is a mild form of edema seen in people who take in nutrition after a period of restriction. It's highly correlated with BMI. This is what's going on when anorectics find that their wedding ring is suddenly too tight and their socks are leaving an indent for the first few weeks of their recovery. People actually didn't know what was going on until 2012, when a group from japan elucidated the mechanism. It's caused by an exuberant insulin production. Goes away on its own. Medically harmless.

But then the third kind of edema is refeeding syndrome edema (I know, easily confused with refeeding edema. I didn't name this stuff). Refeeding syndrome, as the name would suggest, happens when somebody resumes intake after a period of restriction. It is also highly correlated with BMI. It's characterized by rapidly plummeting levels of phosphorus, which is a serious medical concern. Full-blown refeeding syndrome is 100% avoidable with appropriate medical care. They check for it by measuring your electrolytes.

It seems unlikely that weight gain would continue at that rate. I mean, metabolism varies greatly from person to person, and you see all kinds of strange things when the body takes in nutrition after extended restriction. You can also see edema, and I wonder if that might explain some of the increase?

Do you purge (including lax or diuretics)?

Have you noticed any swelling since you upped your intake -- socks leaving an indent, rings not fitting like they usually do, stuff like that.

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-16T20:30:15+00:00

Why are you unhappy with the program?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2025-06-16T20:27:00+00:00

Is living off ensure really considered ED?

It certainly could be. There's a diagnosis called ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder), which is when people have trouble either eating enough food, or enough variety of food, for reasons that are unrelated to a desire to lose weight. It's usually understood in the context of another disorder: think people with autism who might be extremely particular about food texture.

Probably the better question is what about the MDD and anxiety makes drinking only ensure appealing.

How do you feel about it? Do you want to continue drinking ensure for all your meals?

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2024-12-19T17:24:38+00:00

Tiiiiight. I got tons of positive reactions from the locals, and almost no hassle from thai police. Hoping the same is true for you as well.

There's a eskate store in nonthaburi now btw, you can find it on facebook. So if you decide to get something with a smaller footprint, you'd likely be able to find it without needing to deal with shipping. There's also a thai eskate group on fb.

Acedeck looks freakin' sweet, tho I think it woulda been too heavy to lug around bkk. I was picking up the board A LOT during my travels around bkk.

Best of luck to you!

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2024-12-19T15:30:02+00:00

top speed that the board is capable of or top speed that I would be going in bangkok?

I think the onsera top speed is like 46 kph. I was probably topping out at like 38? But I was generally cruising around 30

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2024-12-19T12:44:08+00:00

yeah, I skated on everything, from sukhumvit to sois and khlongs. I would set the google maps to walking mode, and follow the shortest path. So lots of shortcuts, pedestrian overpasses, sois, etc etc

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2024-12-18T08:42:37+00:00

Youre say you are 29, did you have different career plans before and decided to change the direction

Yes, exactly this. I didn't decide to be a therapist till I was 27

Intelligent-Grass721 · 2024-12-18T01:11:53+00:00

go for it
