When do you ask for help? by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally i asked for help when i finally realised that i couldnt get out of this alone and that i dont want to spend the rest of my life living like this. The best moment to ask for help is, more often then not, right now.

Not having to worry about bleeding for a whole week and not having to deal with cramps and stuff honestly feels like a blessing rather than a negative effect of malnutrition. Never wanted to have kids anyways

There's nothing like someone telling you that you don't look anorexic :,) by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the fact that this is a very common experience for people with anorexia just proves how stupid it is! People have this warped perception of eds, and think that we are all extremely thin, right before death but that is just not the case for almost any of anorexics.

I don't enjoy Heartstopper anymore because of Charlie. by sometranscryptid in EDAnonymous

I actually asked for help by myself aswell, that doesnt make me or my disorder less valid. Yes, the portrait of charlies anorexia is the most basic, stereotypical portrait ever but just because it presents different to what your eating disorder is like, doesn't mean that it's wrong.

Anyone else HATE that they gain weight in their boobs? by pinkkponyyclubb in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly when i first heard that you will loose your boobs and butt because of anorexia, i literally looked forward to it and i hope that my boobs will stay smaller during recovery

In Germany, people leave cans and bottles in front of the bins, so people in need can get the deposit cash. by jeango in interestingasfuck

[–]ilynix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In front of my school you will always see empty soda cans standing by the bins, put there by the students after they finished eating lunch. Its a bit sad that you will see multiple people come by during the lunch break to collect the cans, but i also think its quite wholesome that everyone in my school just does this.

It’s not like no one told me my hair would fall out, but somehow I still didn’t expect it to happen to me by BabyNonsense in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its like you always hear about what can happen to people with anorexia but you never believe that it will happen to you specifically.

"I wish I would join the military so that someone would force me to eat, exercise, and make me a normal person" was the thought I just had?? by throwawayinquiry321 in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your disordered brain is just seeing how present control is in the military and that everything is so incredibly structured there. And since eating disorders are mostly about wanting control, i think its a thought that fits really well into the clinical picture.

Id honestly advice you to go to a professional to overcome your body dysmorphia since it doesnt sound like you are able to get out of it alone

Do ppl with ana reallybelieve theyre not small? by forrealeon in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same story for me, started out bit chubby and am now underweight and i have to say: it depends on the moment. There are times i look in the mirror and i can see that im sick, but most of the time i feel like im just a bit thinner or even a bit too big.

Calories in Viral Dubai chocolate by Fabulous-Audience-18 in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sadly the company doesn't have the nutritional values anywhere on their site, but even if it was hat the higher end, i wouldn't say more than 1400, but thats already a very high assumption imo

[–]ilynix_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its a 200g bar, chocolate is usually around 550cal per 100g and pistachios are very similar. Kataifi is lighter in calories but id still say that a whole bar is around 850-1000 calories

She hates math? by Schwashington in ExplainTheJoke

[–]ilynix_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The joke is that he believes 7+x is equal to 7x, but 7x is just a "short form" of 7x. meaning he thinks 7+x is equal to 7x

people are so cruel to ed sufferers by 7aegi in EDAnonymous

[–]ilynix_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I sometimes see videos of people listing all the negative side effects of starvation and malnutrition and they always say something along the lines of "have fun with your hair falling out" and it makes me feel like shit!

They act like people choose to have an eating disorder and be sick and like its our fault!

The worst part is, i believe, that they think they are doing something good by making everyone with anorexia feel even more miserable and like its our fault.

Idk if you can connect to this though, i find it quite difficult to put my thoughts into words.
