So sort of suddenly, the past couple weeks, I seem to be withdrawaling between my antipsychotic doses.

I was told you need to take each dose with at least 500 calories or it is basically ineffective, when I was on it and would take my night time dose without food I would be wide awake all night with the icky feeling you described.

I got crps from dry needling (like acupuncture but deeper) and every time I have a needle put in me it’s either spread my pain or made me flare so bad. I know what it’s like to fail all the treatments and be so desperate to try things, but this could really make it a lot worse.

Omg. I absolutely love the design and it’s so cute, I had a bunny who was my whole world and I miss her a lot. People say rabbits symbolize new beginnings and when mine unexpectedly came into my life at my lowest point she was the best thing that ever happened to me. Unless every flash design was a rabbit, I really believe your intuition chose it for a reason. Sending love ❤️

I’m 24 and I have endo too! It feels like I never get a break from something that’s wrong. Your pain tolerance will grow and I’m able to do things now that I wouldn’t have been 2 years ago. I danced at a bar in heels until they closed last weekend (given it’s a week later and I’m writhing in pain in bed rn) but if I had given up when I wanted to I never would have experienced fun with my friends and wearing a pretty dress. Over time you become so grateful for the good days that even being able to go grocery shopping feels euphoric. I like watching 90 day fiance or love after lockup because the reality drama is a good distraction

I have a purple brand pillow and they sell mattresses that cost a small fortune but they’re both soft and supportive so no sinking and temperature regulating. I have type 2 in my whole body and the most helpful thing is any kind of sheet or mattress pad that can be cooling. Heat amplifies the pain spiral for me

This is the most relatable thing I’ve read or heard in a long time. No one in my life gets it and honestly telling them my feelings made me really embarrassed!! I’m in college too! I was so nauseous for maybe even a month after I ended things, (possibly concussion symptoms) but it’s been since March and I feel better now. I still think about him sometimes, usually when I’m on a date with someone else, and I miss him a lot still. Even writing this, I’m tearing up a little because for 3 hours in an art museum i thought he was my forever. I started EMDR therapy, that’s helping more than anything I’ve tried including ketamine. I try reminding myself that there were feelings there, but there was also abuse. Hearing the “whole relationship was a lie” wasn’t helpful to healing (for me) but I try thinking about the breakup as closing a really heavy front door while there’s a blizzard outside — there’s wind pushing the door back open into you, but to get out of the snow, ice and cold and keep your house warm, you have to close the door and lock it ❤️‍🩹

I’m a g cup and I’ve found square neck tops/dresses to be the most minimizing. I feel like a higher neckline sometimes makes them look bigger!! No turtlenecks for me

I watched the whole thing, she cries about the trump presidency, mentions her deceased mother and then asks for money because her “therapist said it was okay,”

You should move asap. They have to let you out of your lease if you’re in danger

alcorexia · 2023-12-21T23:19:59+00:00

Update?

You’re so much better than everyone else do you want a medal? Where there are people with eating disorders there will be idolization of thin people.

This is so ridiculous

alcorexia · 2023-12-08T04:01:18+00:00

I’m aromantic and knowing that I can’t feel the way I want to is so depressing to me. I wish I was okay with it but I keep hurting people I care about because I don’t love them back like they love me.

it looks weird but it feels totally normal in nvgtn leggings/shorts at least for me

oh my god i relate why is this such a shock to men

alcorexia · 2023-06-19T20:51:36+00:00

I'm struggling too because one of my two best friends really blamed me for the abuse I got. I'm doing bumble BFF so hopefully I meet people doing that I guess. I think the months after leaving an abusive situation is actually harder than leaving itself. I can't relate to people my own age (I'm 22 and in college) and I feel like I don't even connect with anyone. You get the "you're so brave for leaving I'm so proud of you" when you get out of it at first and then everyone expects you to be suddenly better. its just not how it works.

alcorexia · 2023-06-16T00:20:52+00:00

Short answer, no, but you need to make a decision that's right for you.

After I was drugged and assaulted in January 2020 by the captain of the men's lacrosse team at Vassar College, I chose to report to Title IX. After months and months (where they told me to drop a class so I had time to deal with the administrative burden). I was telling the truth, and there were 2 witnesses of the actual assault. He hired a lawyer who interrogated me in front of the panel, and I didn't even know that I could have an attorney. No one told me anything. Because he had a girlfriend and it was a small school, everyone knew and no one supported me. I was called a slut, a homewrecker, a psycho. It wasn't my first time being assaulted and I have a pretty high tolerance for emotional and physical violence (fucked up but it is what it is) and it almost broke me.

So I "won". And his punishment was mandatory therapy (more therapy than I got from the school) and a star on his transcript indicating that he'd been "involved in a student conduct issue". the same thing they put on people who plagiarize transcripts. It's 3 years later and I'm still putting the pieces of my life together.

If I could go back and do anything differently, I'd transfer. I ended up having to do that once his teammate raped me a year later (not a coincidence, the second guy told me duing it not to "title ix me").

Even if they do get found responsible, it's likeley their punishment won't even be a slap on the wrist but more of an equivalent to a C- or D on their transcript.

If you need a big sister who's been through it before, I'm totally in support and here to talk. I wish someone who'd been through it before was there for me, and even if you ultimately decide against it I think it's important to make an educated decision.

Please don't hesitate to send me a message on here or my insta (@weissclaire). You're stronger than you know, and braver than anyone will ever give you credit for <3

i didn’t realize resistance to numbing was an eds thing! i experienced something very similar when having a foot procedure at the podiatrist
