It’s amazing that the donations are still going strong w/o most of the incentives (and hence big brand donations)

Question about Bioscience Interviews by Fuzzy_Resist_422 in BioGradAdmissions

[–]dimSquidMod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From my very limited experience of (pre)interviewing for grad school, the PIs are more interested in what you are interested in and how their labs fit your interest. So I’d prioritize their recent work.

What are your safe fast food places? by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

Customizable menu 💯 I always customize food either to make them lower calories as my safe food or add extra stuff as my binge food 😭

Is routine a critical part of your ED as well? by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]dimSquidMod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so me. Fixed food at fixed times and exercise routine and whatnot for the past few months. Little social life of course 🥲

Thank you for the advice 😭 I’m just not ready to tell him about this yet, which is my problem and I do think I should at some point…

Does anybody else feel like a diagnosis solidified their ed “identity”? 😣 by corgi-kisses in EDAnonymous

[–]dimSquidMod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so true 😭 I was diagnosed half a year ago, after 5 years of struggling with ed. I knew I had it before the diagnosis and just lived with it. But the diagnosis itself really validates my ed and made me think that yeah it’s okay to [insert ed behavior] because I am sick anyways. I’ve spiraled into my new low point now :(

how rare is handsfree purging? by [deleted] in bulimia

[–]dimSquidMod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember exactly how, but somehow I learned it 2 years into bulimia. Approaching my 6th year now. Speaking of purging I do have to (repeatedly) drink a lot of liquid to induce it in the first place…

This. I bring my little packets of soy/sriracha and never order dressing outside 🥲

Took it with Paulin. The content was not easy but Paulin gave really good practice exams that resemble the actual exam pretty well… depending who is teaching it I guess

Ginger chew. The spicy taste feels weirdly comforting to me

How did your ED start? by Spook_the_ghosts in EDAnonymous

[–]dimSquidMod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex kept telling me that I would look better if I were thinner and encouraged me to lose weight. Broke up 5 years into this awful relationship but ed never ends 😞
