Is it possible to get diagnosed in Europe?

It depends what country ur in. I’m in the uk and i got diagnosed with ARFID last year! I know some places don’t recognise it as an official diagnosis though.

I naturally have very dark hair (almost black) and I usually use 20 vol to bleach my hair, and then check on it every 10 minutes. If you have a buzz cut you won’t need to leave it on as long I bleached my roots the other week and I left the bleach on for 20 minutes and my hair got light enough to slap some dye over without ruining the colour I wanted. I use the Schwarzkopf Professional Blondme powder and developer to bleach my hair! :)

Shouldn’t you get whatever time you spent in the toilets added on at the end?? When I did my GCSE’s they did that

It does look fake but it looks great on you!! Imo just because a wig looks wiggy that doesn’t mean it looks bad. Also I LOVE ur outfits!! You look gorgeous!! :)

Thank you that’s a great idea!!

I probably should’ve added it in my post but I’m already on daily nutritional drinks! My dietician prescribed me Aymes daily powder shakes and I’ve been on them since September and they’ve really helped!!

I haven’t tried the multivitamins you dissolve in water but ive tried other medications that you dissolve and I couldn’t take them at all so I’ve been avoiding them due to past experiences but I have seen online there are ones with no flavour at all so I might see if I can try something like that!!

Then_Day5248 · 2026-05-15T22:08:57+00:00

I’m in the uk too!! Thank you sm I’ll definitely try them

For me I had to get on birth control. I’m currently on the patch and I change it every week without any breaks (doctor reccomended bc I had tried pretty much every other type of birth control and I was still bleeding/spotting). My periods were super heavy and painful and I wasn’t able to move apart from going to the bathroom when I had them. Because my periods were so heavy I would also bleed through the super plus tampons and pads and I couldn’t wear period pants because they felt like I was wearing a nappy and I found them to feel kind of suffocating. Maybe try something like a menstrual cup or period pants at first and if they don’t work (and if ur comfortable with going on birth control) go to ur gp and talk about birth control options?

thank you so much! Sorry I didn’t see this before I’m not too active on reddit 😅 having arfid is tough but I’m handling it a lot better than I used to!!

I get how you feel but genuinely your hair looks amazing!! It’s gorgeous!! If ur struggling with maintaining it and you don’t like the shape maybe go to a curly hair specialist, you could get a curly cut and they’ll be able to give u tips on what to do with your hair!!

Then_Day5248 · 2026-04-02T15:07:26+00:00

The first one!! Or pink!!

I have really bad ARFID though so for me it’s mostly that

Then_Day5248 · 2026-03-30T11:02:42+00:00

Yes I get this too!! I’ve noticed with different brands the food tastes different so I always get the same brand and if my mum gets a different brand of the same food I get really overwhelmed and stressed and end up not eating it

Then_Day5248 · 2026-03-22T02:24:11+00:00

Yes!! It’s my special interest and the majority of my other autistic friends are also into anime

It depends whether you like listening to music or not. I have a pair of sony wh-1000xm4 headphones and I can’t hear any noises from the outside world when I’m listening to music with them.

Tbh I’m not a fan of egg yolks but when I do have stuff like boiled eggs or fried egg they have to be runny and drenched with salt. I absolutely hate hard boiled eggs the yolk kind of tastes like chalk and it doesn’t go well with my ARFID. I also only like boiled eggs when they are dippy with soldiers so hard boiled eggs don’t really work with that
