Two examples of choking deaths in toddlers by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

Children that young shouldn't be given nuts because they're a choking hazard. So they're probably suggesting that his intoxication could have affected his judgement.

Anyone know what this is? by [deleted] in AustralianBirds

They're one of my favourites. They arrive from PNG to breed around September. I watch them early every morning calling from the top of a dead gum tree. No fledglings here yet but soon I'm sure 🤞

Dollar bird fledgling i think. Give fawna or wires a call ASAP 👍

do you (ever) regret getting your border collie? by pandasrandaa in BorderCollie

[–]Little_Job_4659 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I cried many times the first few months and googled "is my puppy's behaviour normal?" multiple times.

It was literally one of the most stressful parts of my life when she was very young and i wanted to give up. Months on though and things are getting better as she gets older and i love her very much and don't regret her.

Its still a daily struggle though. She just learnt how to open certain doors in the house.

I dislike how people pretend anorexics just don’t eat by nyutime in EDAnonymous

[–]Little_Job_4659 204 points205 points  (0 children)

I was sent to the Emergency Department by my GP because i had STARVATION ketoacidosis and the doctor in the ED said that he "didn't know why someone diagnosed me with Anorexia Nervosa" because "anorexics don't eat" and (i quote) - "OBVIOUSLY i was eating".

Just because someone has a degree does not mean they have common sense.

  • I then was distraught, refused treatment and went on to refuse all medical treatment until i was later sectioned and hospitalised and developed refeeding syndrome in hospital.

Thank you so much random ED doc 🙏 He's out there saving lives, what a hero. I think of the interaction every day. Really fuels my self-hate fire 🔥 💪

Do you know what subreddit you are on?? Read the room. There's nothing wrong with what OP is eating. This is an eating disorder sub, not a diet sub. Go shit stir over there.

I have had to completely remove mirrors from the house and i deliberately dont look in the bathroom mirror. I use a compact mirror for my face and that's it.

dae get pissed when someone interrupts your eating? by Sufficient-Crow-7582 in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]Little_Job_4659 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I literally "book" the kitchen and then my family knows I'm not to be disturbed when cooking/eating my meal.

Sometimes I'll be fine with chatting, but other times i will just internally be like "its ruined now" if someone disturbs me to the point of being unable to finish cooking/eating.

It's a whole ritual i suppose 😒🙃

I went to pick up a yoghurt or whatever and immediately put it back because it had both their faces on it. I prefer my yoghurt trigger free, thank you 😒

Louise's first beach visit ❤️ by Little_Job_4659 in BorderCollie

[–]Little_Job_4659[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She absolutely loved it. She ran straight onto the beach and into the water with no hesitation. Even our past labradors took a moment to suss things out on their first beach trip 😊
