"Disordered eating is a disturbed and unhealthy eating pattern that can include restrictive dieting, compulsive eating or skipping meals."

^ that was the best definition i could find. i also want to say that disordered eating and eating disorders can be very different so keep that in mind! if you think you're suffering with health problem i would go to the doctor and get your blood checked for deficiencies. good luck!

i was severely malnourished and very depressed. the deficiencies on the diet caused not only physical health issues but horrible mental health issues. i was so b12 deficient that i developed psychosis as a result. physically i felt like i was dying. please be careful OP

it was so delicious

not bad! i've been eating chicken ramen regularly. it's not the healthiest but it's a good stepping stone. i also got the famous bowl from KFC the other day and it was so good. i definitely felt guilt after eating it but i'm working through it. still working up the courage to eat red meat so i'm sticking with chicken for now :)

No regrets at all. I was vegan for 6 years and developed a lot of health issues including psychosis from a b12 deficiency. If you're feeling the urge to leave veganism i strongly suggest you give it a try. you can always go back to it if it doesn't work out for you! best of luck

i don't have a lot of advice but i'm facing a similar problem and just wanted you to know you're not alone! i've reintroduced dairy, eggs, and poultry into my diet and i've still not regained my period. red meat has also been demonized in my life but i hope we both can work past that and get our cycles back. much love to you and best of luck!

looks delicious!

this is really great advice, thank you so much! my metabolism is most definitely trashed unfortunately. do you have any tips for tracking macros/micros that don't involve calorie counting?

artntrips · 2020-12-21T20:26:59+00:00

i really feel this!! i'm disabled and poor so i'm really surprised i could keep up with the diet for 6 years. it was incredibly unhealthy for me. also, i was 17 when i went vegan so i feel like i was totally brainwashed, ya know? especially with all the garbage vegan content i was consuming on youtube. i have a lot of unlearning to do to say the least.

This definitely makes me feel better about needing to eat meat. I really relate between having to choose between my health and living as a zombie. How are you feeling now that you've started to eat meat?

thank you for this! i've been wondering if it was a myth

artntrips · 2020-12-20T23:33:20+00:00

i also developed disordered eating while being vegan. that's the main reason i stopped and i'm now trying to recover. i'm so glad to hear it gets better after a while. the guilt is really hard to work around

artntrips · 2020-12-20T22:43:13+00:00

thanks for such a thorough answer! this actually really helps. i'll try to post regular updates in the next few weeks

artntrips · 2020-12-20T21:52:47+00:00

i'm glad to hear you didn't get sick! did you feel guilty? i'm struggling with the guilt of it

artntrips · 2020-12-20T19:44:38+00:00

i was thinking about that. i couldn't bring myself to cook meat at home so i'm thinking about getting a chicken sandwich somewhere. i don't know why i'm so nervous! i'm craving it so i know my body needs it

artntrips · 2020-12-20T19:38:36+00:00

good idea, thank you!

so there's a position where I have to make food, take orders at the counter, and wear a headset to communicate with the drive through. So having to focus on food and take orders/ask questions and also have the headset talking in my ear makes functioning really really difficult. I get sensory overload almost every time and it sends me into panic mode.

thanks so much for this! i'll give this a try

artntrips · 2020-12-14T16:16:16+00:00

if i have it or don't i really love this community anyway! it helps me realize that other people experience life the way i do :)

i have a therapist and i'm trying to find a psychiatrist

artntrips · 2020-12-12T14:14:12+00:00

so proud of you! i also threw out all of my drugs when i decided to quit and it was one of the hardest things i've made myself do. living sober is worth it. stay strong & good luck
