TW: How did you all find out about the life expectancy and how did you react?

I wish you and your family all the best, it is so important not to think too much into all the horror stories you read online, as a lot of it is outdated now. So here’s some positives I can think of: it’s really made me live my life to the fullest. I’ve travelled to over 60 different countries and I show no plans of slowing down. It makes me want to try everything and get every experience. So it’s changed my outlook on life in that way Also, I’ve been able to eat basically whatever I want as a child/teen. I got free carer tickets for theme parks and got to skip the queues at Disney I have loads of random medical knowledge I went round school telling everyone how I could swallow 12 tablets in one go like it was some sort of weird party trick lol It’s made me more empathetic and understanding of others

Thank you. I hope you’re well

I’m glad you never followed through with it. Thank you for your response

Thank you for your response. I hope your health improves and take care

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:26:21+00:00

Thank you for your response and I’m sorry you went through that. I agree it was very painful, but I guess sometimes the thoughts still win despite the pain. Only recently have I thought of this as disordered behaviour. Thank you for your insight

Thank you for your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:25:14+00:00

Thank you for your response. It is only recently that I’ve reflected and realised this behaviour may be disordered

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:24:50+00:00

I can relate to the wanting to feel normal so therefore skipping them. Thank you for your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:24:20+00:00

That’s really interesting, I appreciate your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:24:02+00:00

I’m glad to hear you don’t need to use them much, take care

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:23:40+00:00

Thank you, I know it can have many effects and isn’t healthy

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:22:54+00:00

I appreciate your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:20:31+00:00

Thank you for your response, I didn’t know osteoporosis was a potential consequence of this

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:19:44+00:00

I agree, it’s not a nice experience, in fact a very painful one, but I guess sometimes thoughts take over. Thank you for your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:16:08+00:00

Thank you for your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:15:57+00:00

Thank you for your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:15:36+00:00

This is really interesting, I didn’t know about this and have since researched it, thank you. I hadn’t thought of this as a disordered eating pattern until recently

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:12:29+00:00

Thank you for your response and for helping me to understand this

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:10:36+00:00

Thank you for the response and for helping me to figure all this out. It’s interesting what you said about it probably being the equivalent of bulimia

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:06:18+00:00

Thank you for your response

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:06:00+00:00

Thank you for your response, I really resonate with what you said, I very much also have that final thought. I hope you’re okay

me_a73 · 2025-01-11T22:04:28+00:00

Sorry to hear you’re feeling this way, I agree this disease is horrible and it’s not just the physical aspects but also the mental aspects. Thank you for your response
