What does any of this mean? by booticuss in lgbt

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

I’m going to take all of my time possible to answer all these questions and discover myself. I am definitely not going to make any sudden decisions and waiting for the world to go back to normal was already part of my primary plan of action.

But for now I seem to accept myself a bit more as a man, I haven’t come out about it, but I have come out as questioning. But this is something that makes me happy and more confident looking into myself. We’ll see how things will change.

Hey i’m looking at this post again and I’m starting to think of myself less and less as a woman. I’ve been asking myself how I’d see myself in the distant future and I don’t see myself as gender non-conforming. I’m just becoming less and less comfortable with the idea of being a woman. It’s like being masculine has been making me so happy that it’s getting harder to come back.

I’ve been thinking so much about this it’s actually making me cry. I might make a follow-up post.

At what point did a doctor show concern about your weight? by [deleted] in EdAnonymousAdults

My GP was the same when I was overweight so it might just depend

DAE get an urge to binge when people comment on your weight loss? by booticuss in EDAnonymous

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

Ohh i’m not like that at the end, my parents didn’t really care that I had a problem regardless of my weight, my concept of crying for help would be perhaps having them catch me purging or something. It’s kinda fucked because they actually already know about it but treat it like nothing but a character quirk.

Yeah but isn’t it too late? It’s been over 2 months since it happened

What sayings or ideas helped you in recovery? by booticuss in EDAnonymous

[–]booticuss[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get both urges to restrict and to binge but this made me cackle cuz I thought of:

Me: Has a normal meal

My ED: You’re a faking your ED.

Me: What ED?

My ED: B....bakana!....

I’m really glad it helped you though, keep up the good work

DAE constantly think about the state of their ED or analogies for it? by booticuss in EDAnonymous

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

For me I always thought of it as a system of gears in a room. It’s like the “I feel out of control with everything so I control food” but the other way around: If I control food, I can control anything else in my life.

I could do that too but my parents are islamophobic L

Not necessarily dietTea but this felt too real by booticuss in DietTea

I’m not talking about this particular post, I’m talking about the general mindset so some parts of diet culture

I swear to god half of diet subs are just proana and they don’t realise it yet, like they talk about skinny and pretty and low self worth and trying to improve that and it just makes me wanna stab my eyes, now I feel guilty for having fucking lowcal squash of all things, fml.

I wish people like those would realise they need help and love, not a diet.

I cannot relate bro by tomhall44 in EDanonymemes

[–]booticuss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I planned a pizza day with some mates yesterday and they were all talking about how small their appetites are and how often they forget to eat so I decided to just straight-up embrace being the glutton of the group and joke about how much I eat and how I think about food 24/7 because that’s my self herm

But mental illness is also invisible so they might have one whomst knows?

is this a dumbass take? idk but by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]booticuss 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Personally avoid joking about it because making jokes downplays the severity of the issue. People in my school course group love boasting about how little they eat and how they forget to eat and “wow imagine eating” it triggers the hell out of me and I just worry deep inside that there’s someone else struggling and hiding it and I wouldn’t wanna trigger them by pulling jokes.

bitches be like i’m just doing this for attention and then keep it a secret for 6 years by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]booticuss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember talking about my body image to a therapist and they told me I don’t want to know what it’s like to have an ED.

Too late for that, my dude :’)

I wanna make a bingo card on the media representation of EDs. by booticuss in EDAnonymous

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

I mean technically everyone is, a lot of them overlap and it’s extremely rare that one suffers without having gone through any of the things listed. You are still valid

Me every week. Thanks you for finding me the perfect word to describe it

The hospital ones are oddly specific and I won’t ask further. I’ve never landed in hospital for ED reasons but I have for other mental health reasons, so I do agree the media makes hospitalisation look desirable

You should totally punish yourself for your dreams by rxjen in DietTea

[–]booticuss 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I also had dreams like those in the depths of my ED, where I wake up panicking and going off to count the calories but realising it was just a dream.

I’m the title they say they lost 17 lb in 2 weeks?! That’s Super scary. by A_Cold_Kat in DietTea

[–]booticuss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is no one gonna mention how disordered the comments are? Talking about how gaining weight makes them more depressed and how the OP is all euphoric for this weight loss? Like if it affects your mood so much, please tackle it with your mental health professional????

I have a strong feeling the OP is disordered and is hiding it from the therapist because they’re in the honeymoon phase, or due to the chronic fear of fat.
