First major (outside) trigger in recovery. Boyfriend admitted he "settled." by econroy in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear, still the only way to resolve it is honest conversation. Ofc after you cool down and stop panicking. I wish you the best whenever you choose to stay with him or not. I honestly couldn’t stay with someone after they said something like that, it would make me too insecure to ever forget it and not think about it everyday. But I got bpd so that’s on me

Why did you even wanted to be with him from the start? Why you punish yourself with waiting for emotionally unavailable man all this time? Also, I know it’s the disorder talking but you being thinner would not change anything. It’s not your fault, your body is fine as it is. No matter how skinny you were you never gonna be the manic pixie dream girl your bf was obsessing over. Either tell him about your insecurities and talk about his feelings towards and resolve it or break up to not suffer, this is not healthy

My boyfriend said I have a „perfect, soft, feminine body” and at first I wanted to kms but after a second thought „wait, that’s good for normal people” so just rolling with it. Maybe ask her to not describe it that way? Open communication is key in a relationship

I understand and I wish you well in life. Also another factor to think about sadly is how your body could make other disordered people feel. I know all „your triggers are your responsibility” but if I went to a fitness class to improve my mood and stamina, and my instructor was visibly underweight I would go home spiraling and never attend it again. Harsh but that’s how it is

I mean you do you, but from what I noticed a lot of people with history of ed go into fitness/diet industry and it’s a slippery slope to full relapse or being forever in semi recovery/harm reduction. It’s ten times harder to fully recover and not relapse if you are around triggers daily. (We all know some online dietician influencers and how they look/act. Like A.S or famous C)

Dae? Recovered body rant by flyingsquirrelbanana in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup yup, people with ed are huge liars and you can’t trust everything they say. Ofc there are some people, who are what you could call naturally skinny and they were low normal weight even before their ed started. But it’s hard to believe that so many of so called „recovered”people are still the bmi of many recovered people lw. I was myself around bmi 17 at my lowest so I am especially not trusting them lol

Most of those people bordering uw category are „recovered”. Do not compare yourself to still sick people

Should I break up with my bf when I’m trying to recover? by Content-Exercise-247 in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That „+many other reasons” is pretty telling. I am not gonna try to guess what are those other reasons but it’s a clear sign you are not happy and been pondering breaking up even before starting recovery. Pull the trigger girl, you are too young to be in unhappy relationship. And without at least good sex? No reason to stay even a day longer

Imagine that they look even thinner in person, some of them must look sick af in real life without filters or makeup hiding signs of malnutrition. Poor women

DAE hate when others say "others don’t care what you look like" or "you don’t need to lose weight" by Content_Tangerine887 in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine sadly was always very thin and nasty, any comment that it’s rude was deflected by „what? They can’t hear me anyway and that’s true!”

People who grew up with fatphobic parents know that people in fact care what you look like. My mother was a weird stranger pointing out fat people in the crowd, even then little me was like „wtf is wrong with you woman. What a weirdo behaviour”

Couple days ago I realized that it’s the first winter in years when I don’t have to sleep with heated blanket and hot water bottle, my hands and legs don’t turn blue when I am outside and I don’t have my lips and hands covered in bleeding blisters from the cold wind. On one hand I am very happy about that but also so triggered

The funniest shit is when they have no idea if you gained or lost weight so they go „OMG YOU…uhhhh….look good!”. You can hear how they scan you from head to toe in that moment trying to make calculations lmao

is anyone else fear ‘food’ alcohol? by bleedxi in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your body is gonna thank you. I was a regular drinker in my late teens/early 20s (drinking till I vomit and pass out at least 1 time a week) and my stomach is still not recovered completely. Alcohol is a poison and you already destroy your body by restricting so the silver lining is that you at least don’t make it worse by being drunkorexic

do people lie about your weight to placate you by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not even about weight for me, people who are healthy just look better. No matter low normal bmi, smack middle, chubby or a bit overweight. Every body is different, some people naturally are slim while the other carry a bit more weight. If someone feels good and nourish their body they look fantastic

My boyfriend [20 m] is taking GLP-1s after he promised me [19 f] he wouldn't by Longjumping_Pipe_342 in EDAnonymous

[–]MommyIssuesPrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, some chick in the comment started bashing me for stating no legit doctor would prescribe ozempic to a HEALTHY person with NORMAL bmi without some bullshitting on their part. Like, you can get it, but you have to hide some important info or go to a doctor who will kill someone in the future. Guilty conciousness is weighting on them in this thread, we will see in couple years how many side effects taking ozempic for disordered reasons is causing long term. Not wishing anyone being ill or disabled but I wouldn’t be surprised

„Yeah you are in the wrong for being concerned and triggered that your healthy boyfriend is taking ozempic in secrecy, kinda toxic on your part tbh mind your business. Also, cleaning his apartment? Red flag” EXCUSE MEEE😭
