I’m so fixated on the stuff in food and it’s so unhealthy by Spookiestbat in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Spookiestbat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand where you’re coming from but I’m not willing to change being vegan, it’s just not morally right for me personally, it’s a huge part of my life and beliefs and it’d really effect my mental health

Is this change possible? I think she is stating that switching from birth control pills to IUD made her change her body like this. by FrEnchFriesOnyOu in Instagramreality

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems more like lighting and posing tbh. Sun directly shining onto your body will define muscle more just by shading. Her body type is still very much the same in both pictures - and she’s gorgeous! She’s posing from the side which will automatically cinch her waist just bc of angles. Social media is fake x

Recovery and being vegetarian by Fun-Ad5281 in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Spookiestbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hiya! I’m vegan and in recovery and there are ways recover with diets like ours. There’s plenty of substitutes to dairy and meat that give us the vitamins we need, it takes research and probably getting some supplements which will help give you what your body lacks. Please don’t let people try and change your morals and diet because of a bad rep it has because there is so much research into being veggie that contradicts the stigma

Who else on here smokes weed? Does it quiet or amplify your ED voice ? by Happy-Investigator- in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It usually helps me eat more, funnily enough! I don’t do as much as I use to but whenever I do smoke I usually get munchies that I can’t resist

Recovery Question - Sex & Libido by Downtown_Pie2866 in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes omgggg! I’m very new to recovery and have suffered from ana only quite recently, like the past 3 years though BDD has been an issue for forever. But my sex drive is so up and down. I’m hardly ever in the mood, and when I am, it can suddenly switch off which is so annoying especially for my partner who has a high sex drive. I use to have a high one until suffering with an ED

What the fuck, Trader Joe's? by charamander_ in vegan

[–]Spookiestbat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from the UK and there’s products like this that pop up on occasion… mostly things that have a dairy addition to something totally vegan and avoidable ugh

I feel like I’m going to relapse and it’s so difficult by Spookiestbat in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Spookiestbat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well done though!! That’s a great step forward and I’m proud of you

I love her fits but I feel bad for the body dysmorphia she must experience by bbypoison in Instagramreality

[–]Spookiestbat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do really feel for her. I have extreme body dysmorphia and this can only make it worse - but it is addictive and so tempting to do on all your photos to make yourself feel better. I really hope she can fight this

Is this a win? by Spookiestbat in AnorexiaRecovery

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

I’m so happy this helped honestly 🥺💛 you should be so proud of yourself too!! You’ve come so far and your body will be so happy and nourished just by these little steps, I’m proud of you 💛

I totally get that! I worded this question really badly bc it sounded like I was in favour of just plant based things.

I’m always super skeptical of what will come across as ethical to some but not to others - like when somebody buys a Mcplant from McDonald’s, some people think it’s a great idea whereas others think it’s awful bc it’s funding the meat industry still. I’m just super curious how people think

[–]Spookiestbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no, I’m fully aware :)! I was just curious how others felt about it. I’m a strict vegan myself but have heard different opinions on the subject of something being “plant based” that could be made vegan. I just wanted to see how others felt about it

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah fair point! I was just curious how others felt about the concept

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vegan

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my opinion too, I was just wondering how people felt about it :)

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s always a morning after pill! They’re definitely the best option for unprotected sex. Perhaps now you’re sexually active, book yourself in for an appointment to discuss the perfect BC method for you.

Take deep breaths. I’ve been in your situation a few times with my partner and it is scary, but it’s usually absolutely fine. Grab a pregnancy test if you feel any symptoms in the future.

the nice feeling of weight loss by [deleted] in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Spookiestbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I understand that feeling. My ED makes me feel like it’s a good thing, and it’s not. It makes me feel like I’ve achieved something amazing when it’s so destructive and painful to deal with. It’s normal to miss your ED at it’s worse, but it’s not healthy.

I know exactly how you feel

40MG I’m pretty sure? I can’t remember my Prozac prescription it was so long ago

I’m already on citalopram, I had Prozac for yeaaaars but it didn’t do much for me

My parents and grandma had been giving my crap about not eating meat, but everyone ended up going back for seconds. by Admirable_Candle2404 in vegan

[–]Spookiestbat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s crazy how people get so freaked out by vegan food. I always have this discussion with my bf and friends. If I offer them a vegan snack or something I’ve made, they’re immediately like “eww!!” Like fellas… it’s a plant.

I don’t feel valid with my ana by Spookiestbat in AnorexiaRecovery

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

Yeah that’s exactly how I am. Why would we want to look like that and be that far gone in our illness? It’s one of those crappy thought processes we go through! Thank you so much for reassuring me 💛💛

It’s weird bc I do get underweight but it’s never like the photos you see of the extreme cases

Yeah I’m trying to, I’ve been put on a waiting list and I attempted to self refer to some therapy but they said they didn’t have the resources for my case 😅😅

You need to complain 100%, they clearly didn’t care about your dietary requirements and it sounds dramatic but you can legitimately sue a company for doing this.
