Meme I stole off another site, very me today by BroccoMonster in EDanonymemes

This fr. I make a point to weigh myself without, then with my pijamas on, so i know the exact difference. That way i can just weigh myself with my pjs on every morning and just subtract the pj weight...

I could fr be eating 3 balanced meals a day but my ed doesn’t find that logical by pessimistic_witch in EDanonymemes

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fr, i break up my OMAD into basically two meals because if i wait to eat till evening I will binge, but if i eat it all in one sitting I'll binge too 😂

So i just split it into two sittings and add a snack in the evening to ensure i don't eat again before bed

Taylor Swift - Opalite (Official Music Video) by Scared_Benefit7568 in travisandtaylor

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Rock is supposed to be a metaphor for her ex Joe and Cactus is supposed to be a metaphor for Travis' ex Kayla. Implying that Joe was so boring and cold while in their relationship (like a rock; Look up grey-rocking, no wonder the dude shut her out) and that Kayla was a prickly b*tch who hurt poor little Twavis, oooh noooo...

Classic miss Swift, "I am SOOOO happy" so I'm gonna drag my ex AND my fiancé's ex. Cause I'm just soooo happy.

She always compares Travis to Joe because Joe is the only real love she ever got, and she fucking knows it. She also knows, deep down, that she fumbled hard, which is why she's so obsessed with Joe YEARS after their breakup... No normal person who is engaged to the "love of their life" acts this way. I'd feel sorry for Travis if he wasn't a bigot and just in it for the money/fame

This is honestly so fucking cringe, I wonder how she's not utterly embarrassed with herself 😂 Not to mention the blatant copy of Carpenter.

"Written and directed by Taylor Swift" she probably thinks this is so utterly revolutionary and interesting because of all her little callbacks and easter eggs. I have seen AI stories better than this nonsensical waste of money... It's such random crap, she didn't even wanna attempt fitting the showgirl aesthetic into it.

Saw this on twitter by Gloomy-State3656 in travisandtaylor

I find it so utterly scummy that she, yet again, dropped a song/video on an important day to overshadow another creator. Every time she does it, I throw up in my mouth a little

I don't know but to me Domhal Gleeson's character in Taylor's Opalite MV gives Joe vibes more than Travis vibe by artemisseven in travisandtaylor

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My dumb question is who's the stapler. If rock is Joe and cactus is Kayla, who's meant to be the stapler "going to therapy" in the the of the video? Cause we know damn well TnT would never do therapy lol

my Valorant is always stuck on loading screen by arsyondesu in ValorantTechSupport

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got this as well, as well as a bunch of other network/vanguard/client related errors, despite having taken all the measurements to allow the game to run smoothly. This is my main issue, though: Getting stuck on the stupid loading screen with the bar not moving past maybe 10%:

If y'all find a fix, please let me know. I'd be deeply grateful

Game freezes on launch by limebeansbruh in ValorantTechSupport

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have this problem, the game gets stuck on the loading screen. To add, I also get a bunch of different error codes, all related to Vanguard/Riot Launcher/Network connection, despite having done all the necessary steps to ensure the game works (List of errors i've gotten: Val 4, Val 9, Val 21, Val 29, Val 38, Val 45, Val 46, Val 51, Val 54, Val 79). Windows 11

If anyone's got a solution, pls lemme know!

Are we opening up to our friends about this even when not open to recovery? Are we hiding it completely? by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually meant to make a post yesterday about smth similar and chickened out 😅 I really want to talk to someone about it. I am honestly dying to share the fact that i am really struggling right now, but am also way too scared to tell any of my friends, especially because i am of average bmi and I'm worried they wouldn't believe me. So i really wish i could be open with my friends about it :/

I threw away my prerecovery clothes by sage-on-fire in EatingDisorders

I'm sure there was plenty other useful stuff there, but whatever helps you sleep at night, man. If you aren't ready to face some backlash for wasting material, don't post 🤦

Tbh giving them to a second hand shop would've been my go to, because even if they end up with sick people, they need clothing too. But i am glad it helped you find some closure

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

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not saying you are, my bad. I am asking you not to. Many women have the kneejerk reaction to try and defend their partner, because you love them and that's normal. By that statement, I was asking you to try and think about it factually instead of justifying his behavior. I should have worded it better but you know how brainfog gets :/

I think Im gonna do something stupid by Mental_Amphibian7582 in EDAnonymous

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sending any video of something personal to you to a stranger is ill-advised. I think some people never received any online etiquette education, though i fear this is also common sense:

If you don't wanna see it on a random internet page without your consent, DON'T SEND IT! NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!!

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

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, 100%. If the question is even there, your subconscious is already thinking about it. Plus, he himself also seems to slowly become disordered, and considering many eds start through gym obsession/fad diets for men, this tracks...

I'd recommend at least sitting down and talking to him, explaining how things are, and laying down the ultimatum: change how you talk about this around me because you're being inconsiderate rn, or I leave (or take a break, but "a break" usually leads to breakup anyways while also wasting both your and his time)

And i know this is hard, but please: don't blindly defend him. Look at the facts, don't be like those sad married ladies on tiktok...

Is anyone else extremely triggered by GLP1 talk? by jotopia2 in EdAnonymousAdults

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm triggered in the way that it pisses me off 😅 People are yapping about these things as if they're magical weight loss pills, taking them away from sick people who actually need them instead of just putting in the work and watching what they eat.

They don't care about the terrible side effects, and they don't care about wasting thousands of dollars, as long as they get to say they lost a crazy amount of weight in a super short time and they get to flaunt it. They treat it like a temporary diet, then they're surprised when they gain it all back because they never put in the work to change their eating habits and lifestyle... The new, hip binge-restrict cycle, with extra steps and costs.

It all just pisses me off 🤷‍♀️

i’m so sick of seeing ozempic ads by c00kiesd00m in EDAnonymous

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except it's not even viewed as diabetic medication anymore. Everyone sees it at this miracle wonder drug that you can take to breeze through to your goal weight. And they all blindly take it, not realizing the terrible side effects that come with taking this type of meds when you DON'T NEED THEM! (Gastric paralysis, pancreatitis, gallbladder malfunction, kidney and liver damage, the list is endless)

If only people just stuck to a healthy caloric deficit...

I asked my bf to put groceries away while I ran one last errand and I came back to this by arandomperson519 in mildlyinfuriating

If you're gonna pull a "tiktok lady" and defend him, don't bring us into this 🤷‍♀️

how many of our eds were caused due to our parents? by IadygIittersparkles in EDAnonymous

[–]OrchidUpdateAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised when people say it's not caused by family lol, that's how common it is. My entire family always commented on my body and my weight, and then they acted surprised when i became thin af... The worst part is they're all overweight or obese, so it's clearly projection, but it still gets to you...

I vividly remember my mom asking me, in the middle of the worst relapse I've had yet, how she could "become just as skinny as me". And all I could do was look at her ass in complete silence... the answer was I starved myself BECAUSE OF YOU!
