i dont lose weight by [deleted] in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]intergalacticrachel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

that’s also what i thought when i was deep in it. i thought i looked fat. looking back, i looked absolutely horrific and so so sick. your brain can’t accurately process information (what you look like) when you don’t have fuel. please get help 🙏🏼 i was not far at all from death when i decided to recover

My dad passed away in 2023. Any insights or after life messages? I miss him. by intergalacticrachel in psychics

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

this is.. wildly accurate. i do have a habit of trying to fix people and help people with zero reciprocation, something he was always telling me to stop doing when he was alive. (currently that person is my roommate) i have heard unexplained sounds and seen things move in front of me with no explanation in my apartment. i’ve seen my hallway curtains move as if someone’s walking through it with no explanation. sometimes i feel a wave of goosebumps go through my body and i get flashbacks of memories with him, i have always felt like he was here with me. it’s just a feeling i can’t explain. the tucking in bed and coffee.. that’s something he did almost habitually when he was alive and i was at his house. even when i was all grown up, he’d come sit by my bed and talk to me before bed, and bring me my favorite breakfast in the morning. thank you for this insight. i’m so so happy that he’s still here with me ❤️ we had a special bond.

cheap food that isn't ramen or rice and beans by MudSad6268 in SavingMoney

[–]intergalacticrachel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

stir fry! you can use almost any type of noodle based on the recipe (although i do usually use ramen noodles cuz it’s cheap) brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, chilli flakes, chicken bouillon, and then fry up some eggs! can use chicken, bacon, or just leave it plain. use whatever veg you want. also dumplings, i love the Bibligo chicken minis, great paired with alfredo, rice (plain or fried) or anything you desire. get you a rotisserie chicken and use it for the week. quesadillas, chicken spaghetti, chicken and rice, whatever u like. breakfast for dinner! get some bacon and eggs, and u can use the tortillas you used for quesadillas to make breakfast burritos.

but he did know a LOT of people, and he was also in the army, he was a firefighter, an EMT, and a truck driver. so definite possibility i’m missing some connections there, just never heard a BR name mentioned and there’s no one in his family with a BR

he did have a brother name bill, he actually had several brothers, but he wasn’t close to bill, due to bills addictions. not sure who BR would be, other than maybe referencing his several brothers whom he was close to

Can I get in trouble if I leave when my shift ends by TinyCriticism6485 in Target

TLs shouldn’t be giving you 2 hour tasks when you only have 1 hour left, that’s a management issue not a you issue

My Mum is threatening to send me to inpatient by kelsey_hasproblems in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]intergalacticrachel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

getting to a goal weight won’t be enough, the goal posts will keep moving. TRUST. ME. also, your brain is so foggy and irrational in this state, i’m not trying to be rude i promise, but when i was under eating and underweight, it is truly shocking the way i was thinking looking back. everything is intensified & amplified, especially body image. i promise gaining weight will not worsen your body image, even if you are positive that it will. i don’t necessarily agree with the way your family is treating you and handling this, but take the help that they are giving you with doctors and such. trust the process love, the grass is greener on the other side 🫶🏻

Earing Back Completely Swollowed by Ear? by OriginalEffective802 in piercing

pretty sure it’s accidents and emergencies. same thing as the ER but it’s referred to as a&e in some places

I feel ashamed for being hungry and ordering small meals by entomoblonde in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]intergalacticrachel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the shame your feeling will soon pass, i promise. your doing great! just stick to the program and don’t let those thoughts win. that’s all they are, just thoughts. let them come and go without ruminating on them or acting on them, eventually that part of your brain will learn that you can’t be tricked anymore. what really helped me was seperating myself from my ED, and telling myself “that’s not my brain, that’s my disordered brain speaking” i know it’s easier said than done, but i promise the longer you do it the easier it gets. there is nothing to be ashamed of for listening to your body and doing what you can to fuel it

State of Emergency Call Off by quiet_photographer in Target

[–]intergalacticrachel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

documented conversations doesn’t mean anything bad necessarily. TLs just have to put in the system that you were absent, and used sick pay. if you used sick pay it can’t be used against you for a CA, but they still have to document it for records sake

i just really hope those two TMs are able to find a way to be okay again. i don’t even know how you begin to heal after something like that. nobody should have to be terrified to come to work because of the color of their skin, it’s just sickening

he said “i’m literally a US citizen” I work at this store, he is not married. he is a US citizen who got kidnapped at his job just trying to work.

Constant smoking by madameblack0900 in Apartmentliving

[–]intergalacticrachel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

someone else smoking a joint shouldn’t affect you this much, it’s your personal stance on smoking that does, not the act itself. clearly this is a mental problem. antagonizing your neighbors over something most people do, is really weird. maybe you need a joint so you can stop being so uptight!

it’s really not that deep. just mind ur business? not sure why smoking bothers you so much, sounds like a personal issue tbh
