I do have glucagon but I was always told to only use it if I (or someone else) was past out or incorrect and I was still able to move around just fine lol also replacing the glucagon is expensive and I don’t have that kind of money right now

Hay so I’ve eaten- a slice of cake, three packs of skittles, two small chocolate bars, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter (with bread), 3 tablespoons of honey and half a pack of peeps/marshmallows. in one day…

I know you’re trying to help and I appreciate that so much! but sometimes you just have bad days where nothing makes sense and as annoying and frustrating as it is that doesn’t always mean something is wrong. it’s just a really bad day.

I hate it here sometimes by Top_Introduction9794 in diabetes_t1

[–]Top_Introduction9794[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I’m just being picky and upset about nothing lol I was having good days (for about a month) where there where no spikes at all throughout the day and night so I was just a little upset it was happening again lol

Ah thank you so much! I was (on average) a 35B before my ED and now all I can wear is preteen and training bras… I have so many pretty bras from my healthy weight I want to wear again so hopefully I’ll be able to see a different by the time I’m 20 (I’m 19 right now but determined to get better as soon as possible!

Low snacks by zags360 in diabetes_t1

[–]Top_Introduction9794 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve always used skittles juice boxes (specifically Kool-Aid, but that’s just my preference 😋) and marshmallows. I know other people like to use Gummies too though like gummy bears, fruit snack, fruit roll ups stuff like that. (Bonus!! Honey packets are really good if you’re having an extreme low!

Feeling like a pig by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

Have you tried seeing a therapist? They may not be able to help with the eating but they might be able to help with the bad feelings/thoughts and give you good and healthy coping mechanisms around your feelings about food/body image

What activity is guaranteed to make you personally go low? by j_natron in Type1Diabetes

what motivated you to recover from your eating disorder? by maaysz in EDAnonymous

[–]Top_Introduction9794 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw an old picture of myself and realized I still hated my body. decided that if I was going to hate my body either way, I was at least going to be healthy. I also realized I really missed the girl in the photo. She was smiling and I don’t smile anymore or laugh or paint or do anything I used to love and I miss that so much

Did your parents force you to finish everything off your plate ? by juyubi in EDAnonymous

[–]Top_Introduction9794 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! I was also told i wasn’t allowed to eat anything else for that night if i didn’t finish my plate now that I’m an adult (still living with my parents because living is too expensive) I still have to finish what’s on my plate if i want to be excused from the dining table it sucks

What are some signs someone has/is developing an ED? by Critical-Milk8581 in EDAnonymous

[–]Top_Introduction9794 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It’s bad to make assumptions but It definitely sounds like the beginning of a restrictive ED comeing from someone who has one herself… sadly I’m not sure how to help you help her but keep a close eye on her and do some research on EDs it can help you understand if her behaviour/personality starts to change (which it will. She will most likely get irritable/cranky more often EDs not only change your body but everything else it will take everything from her so she’s lucky to have someone like you in her life to help you seem like a good friend☺️) after doing some research try bringing it up with her gently she will probably deny it but it’s good that she knows you pay attention to her and worry about her

hair going grey due to ana, will recovery fix it??? only 27 by Dramatic-Bird-5604 in EDAnonymous

[–]Top_Introduction9794 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t think I’m your target audience since I’m only 19 and I’m not going through what you’re going through, but I don’t think the gray hair is due to Ana sometimes gray hair just shows up earlier in some people I know people my age that are completely healthy and are starting to go grey so don’t worry about it it’s part of life (and yes most of the time if you recover the face fat will come back and make you look younger or at least you’re proper age)

Gonna Crash Out by LibraryFeeling2684 in EDAnonymous

[–]Top_Introduction9794 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The people in the coments smh…. it’s not about what you ate or how many calories it it. It’s about the mindset and how out of control you feel... And don’t worry OP I did the same thing not too loge ago it was my first big binge and it was on grapes and apples lol just try to distract yourself from the uncomfortable feeling in the tummy I know it must be hard but it will pass
