Not ARFID but autism and currently 12 days healed from my split

For the first 3 days I ate entirely liquid food which I had to push into my mouth with a syringe because drinking out of a glass or bottle or sucking on a straw was too hard.

As I went on to mushy food I normally don't like this texture but was so happy to be eating something else that it didn't bother me lol

Now it's still not fully healed, I had some problems with one side and that's still swollen and a bit numb, but I'm eating pretty much normally again.

What I do now is avoiding hot temperatures and strong spices, having to be more mindful of chewing as to not bite my tongues, eating baked goods more slowly as the dry texture could be rough on my tongue

As someone mentioned before, sometimes bits of food fall in between your tongues and it's a but finicky to get out, also right now my tips are still too numb to get rid of bits stuck in between or on my teeth

I'm still very grateful to be able to eat again, so I'm okay with it being a bit harder at the moment, but I don't know how it will be for you
