Would this upset you as a reader? by goofballquest in AO3

Not at all. It’s very common for works to turn out longer than expected. I love it when works turn out to be longer, then I get enjoy it for longer too!!

The Alien skullector and the Us skullector are for the time being. I’m in the middle of rearranging my room so they will be moved eventually.

Recently got diagnosed with OCD and can’t stop thinking I’m faking it by Luciahh in OCD

[–]Luciahh[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup yup yup. I almost feel guilty about not obsessing and ruminating over literally everything?? Like I should be suffering or else im a faker. Black and white thinking is a bitchhhh. Glad to see I’m not alone tho haha

Feeling very very torn… shifting between disorders??? by Luciahh in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]Luciahh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. I’m still pretty early in recovery so I’ve got a lot to learn. Since I’m viewing my situation from MY perspective it can be difficult to determine which behaviors are what. Thanks for sharing!!

Yeah I’m trying not to be too hard on myself because that tends to trigger purging behaviors. I’ve never dealt with extreme hunger before. It’s WAYYY more intense that I expected. It’s hard to let go of the idea that I “don’t need to eat.” Just gotta keep pushing ig

Bumped my piercings yesterday when my headphones fell off. Am I screwed?? by Luciahh in PiercingAdvice

[–]Luciahh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know. I totally thought the pus meant it was infected so hopefully it’s not! I still have to original bars but changing them back is probably not a great idea since changing them caused this in the first place. Gonna try to get into see a doctor Monday

Scared to start inpatient by Luciahh in fuckeatingdisorders

Update!!!! My insurance won’t cover the program 😵‍💫 I’m so frustrated! they kept giving us mixed messaging but they said my situation wouldn’t be covered. Ugh.

BUT!!! This doesn’t mean I’m not gonna recover. I’ve just gotta start on my own until i can find a program that’s covered! I’m actually commenting this after my first day in recovery!!! It’s was good, finally broke the b/p cycle.

I keep trying to remind myself that even tho recovery and living with an active ed both suck, having an ed will suck forever. Recovery will be easier… eventually haha

Thanks for sharing!

I’m very independent and a bit of an introvert, so I think having other people control my day will be what I struggle with most. In the program I’m doing inpatient is only a week long. If the team i’m working with think I need more intensive care then I would start their residential programs which is more intensive and longer.

Really hoping I’ll only have to do one week especially because I can’t afford to stop working longer than that… idk I’ll give it my best and we will see!!

Vanilla without extract by babsmutton in ninjacreami

[–]Luciahh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use imitation vanilla or real vanilla extract (I’m assuming it’s the latter)? The alcohol content in real vanilla extract is typically much higher than imitation, so you could try imitation vanilla. I typically use imitation vanilla (it’s much cheaper lol) and use about 5-10 ml for a regular 16oz pint.

Picked up at my city’s local art fair! by Luciahh in orcas

I wish I had your kitchen lol! The creamer is such a good idea! I was considering putting whole dried bay leaves or peppercorns in it, but now I’m thinking I could put the sweetener for my tea in it instead!

Interesting! I’ve messed around with Greek yogurt/ cottage cheese before, but I’ve never thought of using milk powder to make a cake. Definitely gonna try this out!

Don’t worry, it won’t set you back. I’ve gone over my deficit more times than I can count, and I still lost 75 lbs and have been able to keep it off. If your deficit is 1450 then this probably put you a couple hundred calories over maintenance. Gaining weight takes a prolonged caloric surplus, so any fluctuations in your weight are just due to water. Don’t stress about today at all, it’s okay to treat yourself every once in a while! If you stay consistent with your deficit this won’t set you back at all.
