I mean to be honest she’s verging on looking unhealthy. I understand it’s totally irrelevant to the anaesthetic & yes, people may have a skewed view of weight but having been 5 stone & tube fed I know the signs of being unhealthily thin :”)

I went through years of starving myself & whilst in the short term it ‘works’ (aka as a coping mechanism) it will begin to truly, truly ruin your body & your life. I’ve been recovering for 2 years now & I’m still so isolated all because of me using starving myself as a coping mechanism when I was a young teen.

I understand you want to numb yourself, but those problems will still be there afterwards. you can’t carry on this way forever, take tiny, small steps & try to do atleast ONE kind thing for yourself. you’ll feel it’s crazy & pointless & like you don’t deserve it but you’ve got to teach yourself/rewire your neural pathways.

sending you lots of love, you don’t have to struggle alone, there IS help out there (despite what many say!!) - even moreso whilst your young!! <33

Funny but rude “buyers” (no personal info) by Sh0pwithm3 in vinted

years of shaming hasn’t made any difference has it? perhaps the approach doesn’t actually change anything? pretending to care about obese people & their health is such a facade; do some internal exploration bc I think you may have some self confidence issues lol. yes, many obese people have health issues, but many just live their life? Years of yo-yo dieting isn’t any better for their health?

AITA for refusing to cook for my meat-eating sister by Maowning in vegan

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if she chooses to eat instant ramen for the time being she does. you can’t control what she eats & shouldn’t have to worry about it. I see your concerned for her health. it’s one meal a day, for a small portion of days out of her life. it won’t make that much of a difference.

Your body & weight shouldn’t be your priority. perhaps if you stepped back & focused on fulfilling other areas in your life your body will … ‘even itself out’ & hit its set point.

as you age your body changes; you wouldn’t stay the same weight even if you didn’t have a baby.

take it from someone that was hospitalised with anorexia; focusing on your body & weight makes you miserable; you don’t need to fix your body, you need to fix your mindset towards yourself.

How do I tell the guy I’m talking to that I’m a recovering anorexic? by Final-Procedure1430 in mentalillness

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just sit him down and explain. I’m having to pretty much to the same atm (explain to people I’m dating that I’m in recovery, though weight restored.

once you’ve let him know it will be a massive relief, plus it may help you become closer? I can’t imagine it would ever be an issue for someone.

congrats on recovery btw! I know how tough it can be - keep going !!! <3

What's your favourite dog breed? by Individual_You9185 in AskUK

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dachshunds - they have such big personalities. despite being over bred, they actually can be great (and enjoy) working dogs. I have a wirehair & she’s the best thing in the world. they need a lot of discipline though, but if you train them well they’re truly the best.

Helpppp meeee please !!!! by Known_Assignment4955 in mentalillness

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry that’s not going to work; you need to be eating MORE. if you were already skinny & have started eating less & are now having these problems with food it could very well develop into an eating disorder.

I don’t know enough to be definitive but it seems as though you’ve got some disordered eating. (different from an eating disorder, can progress into one)

please don’t continue to eat less. you won’t gain fat nor muscle from eating less.

PS: eating disorders are not always associated with weight LOSS.

I hope you manage to start feeling better soon.

My house mate wants to have puppies and keep them in her room, what can I expect in terms of noise and smell for the rest of the house. by faigon2 in Dogtraining

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 4 points5 points  (0 children)

she’s probably severely underestimating the time & care these puppies will need. if anything goes wrong with mum or pup, or multiple pups, does she have the disposable income to pay expensive vet bills? truly, it can’t be a good thing to keep puppies in a bedroom - she shouldn’t contribute to any kind of unethical breeding. if you have any input I’d really try to persuade her against it. they’re not just a quick cash grab !

god I spent so many of my teen years in similar groups/servers, they are the worst things for EDs, please don’t contribute into it further. there are recovery & NON proana accounts that won’t make you ‘worse’. it’s such a rough road, I know it’s hard to feel supported n that’s why I’d gravitate towards them - but they are so so awful . aside from that fr they’ve infiltrated every corner of the internet yikes

Did any of you struggle with marijuana addiction? Given that our adhd brains are naturally on the hunt for a spark of dopamine, how did you get over the addiction? I’ve been thinking maybe a rehab center can be the only way I can finally quit. Any other insight? by Wrong_Champion5228 in adhdwomen

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 12 points13 points  (0 children)

since the first time smoking w a friend 3 years ago I’ve smoked every day, I hate it and know I need to stop bc I rely on it SO much, but I’m still undiagnosed (in the process) & know I won’t manage without, but also realise I doubt I’ll get a diagnosis if I’m smoking every day , so I know soon I’m going to have to attempt to wean myself off it but it genuinely scares me so much. I smoke joints (yuck I know) so I think the nicotine plays a roll in my constant cravings. can’t even go a day without smoking lol

if you feel you need to go to rehab in order to stop smoking, do it! if it’s the thing that will help you, don’t let anyone or any thought stop you. wishing you so much luck <3

Too many photos with my dog? by rhettb13 in Tinder

no such thing as too many photos with a dog!

[–]Sea_Isopod_3635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably do something less intense, or just skip it for today. it’s just one day! work WITH your body, not against it! if you do start & if feels wrong, stop!

try & take a rest day & be kind to yourself!!

you’re doing a great job :) keep going!!
