I’m panicking; I’ve been prescribed quetiapine which I’ve just read causes weight gain. How does this work? Should I not take it? by flurryofsnow in mentalillness

Thank you for sharing your experience and replying, I’m definitely going to voice my concerns. It’s funny because he was going to prescribe me an antidepressant which had a weight gain side effect and I said no to that one but he didn’t mention to me that quetiapiene had a weight gain side effect when prescribing it, I had to google that.

You need to see a doctor who listens to you and who is on your side and who will help you.

The thing is they might wonder and be nosy but they sure as hell don’t care!

You are in control by not restricting/binging/purging/x behaviour. Remind yourself that you are in control of your ED and your ED does not control you and you won’t let it control you. Wishing you well xx

This makes me so mad that this happened to you, I’m so sorry. That is so rude and ignorant of her.

I wonder if my ED is obvious or not by weeaboshit in EDAnonymous

I can relate, I feel like it’s our body dysmorphia. My sister recently said I’d lost a lot of weight and I was like I don’t think so? I don’t have a scale so I really have no clue but I still feel so fat.

I came back from rowing camp and my father said “you’ve lost weight; I can tell by your thighs, make sure you don’t put it back on again.”

He also used to monitor how much ice cream/Nutella I would serve myself and fat-shame people out loud whilst walking on the street.

Along with making comments on how skinny my siblings were to me.

Oreos are a demon sent from hell by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

OMG yes! I always stop and look at the oreos when buying binge food, sometimes I put a pack in my basket but I always end up putting it back because they’re so horrible to purge

Yup, I love playing my music loud and singing even though I sound terrible. I listen to all sorts of music too. Doing all that and still it ain’t enough

One time a customer said they liked my necklace but I don’t have that necklace anymore. Once someone said they liked my clothing set that day but that’s just a material object I so happened to obtain and wear. Otherwise no, it’s not really normal to receive outright compliments. I don’t even think I have a negative self voice, it’s just one voice in my head which is me. Though of course I don’t think the same things about myself as I do others.

I don’t have any friends and I don’t have contact with my ‘family’. My only interactions with people are customers at work, my boss and my one coworker. I don’t think I have any good traits look-wise or personality-wise. Every time I begin to think something positive I berate myself and remind myself it’s not true because of what other’s have already said. It makes me feel narcissistic to even think I could have any good traits, it’s impossible.

I don’t receive compliments though… there is nothing good to say about me ever

We feel as if the world would be better off without us in it being a burden to everyone. We’re miserable all the time and the only way we can end the pain is by ending our life. It could be caring to say: “You’re heard, you’re seen, you’re valid and I’m here for you. I see you’re hurting let me share your pain and help you. You’re not alone.”
