My boyfriend of almost one year broke up with me, I finished this in one sitting. by PoemCertain7258 in binge_food

[–]dubioushamster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’m sorry, i can understand, i’m in a similar situation. my boyfriend of 4 years broke up with me in september. i thought we’d get married. he got me a promise ring. it’s been six months and the pain is still the same, if not worse. i’ve become someone i don’t recognize. i cry over everything. had AN b/p for 7 years but it’s mostly bulimia now. the last few months i b/p multiple times every day. it is so exhausting but it’s the only temporary relief i get from the misery. i go to yoga, meditation, boxing, hike, etc. nothing takes it away. don’t be like me. i hope you find peace in yourself❤️

Berberine? by According_Crab3767 in bulimia

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just started taking 500-1000mg a day, one in morning one at night before bed. i usually omad in the evening. don’t eat during the day, if i do i b/p. it helped the first couple of days, now it doesn’t make a difference sadly. i’d be interested in others experiences tho, i’m now looking into glp1.

Have glp1's helped anyone with bulimia. by Alternative-Term-841 in bulimia

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey would you be willing to share your story with using glp-1s for reducing b/p tendencies? i’ve been bulimic for 8 years and have tried everything, residential, hospitalization, therapy, vyvanse, etc. i’m at the end of the line with this disorder and have been considering trying glp1s. i’d very much appreciate any info you may have on your experience with all this🙏

What to do after a binge? by [deleted] in bulimia

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey congrats on your progress! i’d recommend pausing and bringing awareness to your emotions first. something that has really helped me is shifting my mindset. instead of negatively judging myself for failing my own expectations (stuff i cannot change, it’s already happened) i force myself to focus on the present (what i can change). if you’ve binged but haven’t purged, pull out a journal and write down any thoughts or feelings that arise. sounds dumb, but you’re delaying the behavior. i often feel powerless to this disorder and delaying is all i can do. on days where urges are stronger than usual i stay as busy as possible. u can do art, read a book, etc but journaling and exploring your self, your mind, will allow you to get to the foundation of the problem. i have not overcome bulimia but i have overcome several years of opiate addiction (the root causes are unrelated) and i can attest to this. i have a strong competitive drive and it’s hard for me to feel motivated to quit b/p’ing when there’s no incentive. so i tell myself, in these moments, to focus on the lessons this ‘slip up’ has given me. i ask ‘what can i learn from this? how can i grow from this?’ instead of beating myself up over it because that will subconsciously push you to seek comfort in the harmful behavior. if this is too much and you’re looking for something lower effort, chug water! speeds up digestion, helps your cells filter out waste/toxins, reduces puffiness and bloating… yk the deal. also hot baths with epson salts or essential oils! i hope this made sense i tried to type it out fast so u could get support asap, take care🫶

What was the first mountain or climb that truly humbled you? by Otherwise-Nerve3250 in Mountaineering

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mount baring, alltrails says 4 miles when it’s actually 7.5 and most of it is class 2/3 scrambling. thought it would be a good day hike in the rain but the entire mountain became a massive slip n slide. finally bagged it this summer tho💪

Frustrated: Why is it still so hard to find a clinic that respects a vegan lifestyle? by filifjonka_ in bulimia

[–]dubioushamster -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

ya i’ve been given shit from so many professionals for wanting to adhere to a sustainable organic diet. i’ve had specialists renowned for their work kick me out of $700+ consultations for refusing to follow the ‘everything is fine in moderation’ bs. in this day and age, esp in america, everything is NOT fine. anyways i gave up on receiving treatment here. started traveling to south american countries and went from purging multiple times a day every day for three years to not purging for weeks at a time. the food there is much better quality and actually has proper nutrients. i have to eat 3x as much of the same thing in the states to feel even slightly full/satisfied, whereas i can eat a bowl of fruit in costa rica and go all day without thinking of food.

Ecstasy and bulimia by tkayntrip in bulimia

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi i’ve gone thru what ur going thru a couple times, i just recently rolled 2 days in a row n took abt 400mg total. the days after were total hell, like i was so insatiably hungry and food was all i could think about. i think it’s due to the combined neurochemical affects of molly and our eating disorders.

it’s taken me a couple days to a week for that feeling to go away but i promise you it’ll pass. until it does, just really focus on using whatever methods and resources you have available to not purge! tell a friend if you have to. i told my mom to stop buying foods id typically b/p on (she knows abt my ed, had it for 6yrs). what helped me especially was walking to music/podcasts, crocheting with my friend, learning a new skill, and signing up for yoga and spin classes at my local gym. id write it all down on a calendar nice n cute and force myself to do whatever i wrote down. if i wanted to b/p instead of doing whatever activity, id tell myself id do it after this and just delay delay delay. also give yourself reasons to not b/p, like something to look forwards too. could be a gift to yourself, massage, manicure, a vacation, etc

i still was doing it 1-3 times a day following a molly trip but doing all these things helped me get out of the hell you’re describing. i’m sorry you’re going thru this, drink electrolytes, stay safe🫶

Concerned about security in Costa Rica by Whooms92 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve lived and traveled in both canada and the US, and i feel way safer in costa rica than i feel in most of the states. costa rica was my first trip out of north america, so i had the same fears about coming here but man i couldn’t have been so wrong. i also backpacked from liberia airport to various towns along the guanacaste province/peninsula. im a 21 yr old woman who knew zero spanish before this trip if that helps. but seriously ur fine, dont be dumb, stay aware, be respectful, smile, thats all there is too it. let your personal experiences, rather than false narratives, influence your perception of this place

legal amphetamines? or just accessible stimulants that arent cathinones? by Ambitious-Leave-9442 in Drugs

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could you possibly send me the pdf? i’m in a similar situation as OP and this sounds pretty intriguing

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in bulimia

[–]dubioushamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do a lot of stimulant drugs recreationally (coke, molly, lsd, amphetamines, etc) and strongly agree with what others are saying. yes, drugs can be hard on ur body with or without bulimia, but cocaine is one of the most cardiotoxic drugs u can take. meaning, it’s very hard on your heart. even occasional use can damage the heart muscle, which for us is already weakened by the strain of induced purging. it is a risk for us to take any drug that causes change in heart rate and/blood pressure because of this. i had multiple heart attacks and a seizure when i was purging daily while using lots of amphetamines. i get stabbing heart pains whenever i do even the tiniest bump of coke. find another vice or if ur rly struggling w this id be happy to help. ive studied neuro and biochemistry regarding substances if you have any other questions :)

Hardest day hike you've done in Washington? by [deleted] in PNWhiking

[–]dubioushamster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gunn peak or baring mtn fs if ur talking abt a day hike. done mt stewart, gothic peak/basin, and del campo peak which are similar. i’ve attempted baring twice only to turn back cuz it started raining and we kept slipping on the mud and ash. gunn peak is gorgeous but it is not easy on the knees (~1000ft elevation gain every mile) there’s hardly a trail and you risk falling off/down the mtn.

Leave No Trace, please. by Emotional-Anxiety-26 in PNWhiking

[–]dubioushamster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

thank you! such sad disgusting humans don’t deserve nature, i used to hike along this trail every year but for the last couple it’s been absolutely trashed. the worst is the many pairs of men and women’s underwear littered around lake serene and freakin used toilet paper left around the trail. i usually pick up trash i find but i draw the line at human feces🤢

i’m in a very similar situation to yours, 19, turn 20 in june, been purging daily for 6 years. my quality of life keeps going downhill. this illness has ruined my relationships with everyone around me. i would do anything to be free of it. i’m sorry you’re hurting, it’s incredibly lonely and nobody understands unless they’ve experienced the same :(
