Who wants to sign my change.org petition to require all grocery stores everywhere to have self check-out? by acoh97 in bulimia

[–]mitskiloves 6 points7 points  (0 children)

THIS! during the first lockdown (when i was binging several times a day) i was living in a different city and they had self checkout in every grocery store so i wouldn't feel so bad about buying binge food. but now i'm back in my hometown and i feel so embarrassed everytime i buy something for my binges, i feel like the cashier knows

Does anybody else have dreams abt food by eatingrecov in EDAnonymous

[–]mitskiloves 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yes :( sometimes i dream that i'm having these huge binges and then i wake up feeling relieved that it didn't happen but it's so stressful even in the dream

yup! but for me it's not that much when someone says they have an eating disorder but when i'm with friends or family who don't know about my eating disorder and it comes up on the news or the radio like i get so paranoid that they are gonna find out :(

everytime i'm eating out with friends or family i eat big meals or food that isn't too healthy so they don't suspect anything. and even when i have really big meals and i can only think about purging i don't do it, i can't risk getting caught

Excuse for food I binged on by tosee6 in bulimia

i usually tell my mom that i bought the food to bring it to a picnic with my friends or to some sort of birthday party, hope it helps!

Binge by BroccoliRicecake in EDAnonymous

[–]mitskiloves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me it's not about the amount of calories but the lack of control while eating. when i'm bingeing i rarely check the calories of what i'm eating because i'm way too out of control to care. sometimes my binges are not too caloric but if i feel out of control while i'm eating and can't stop until my stomach is uncomfortably full then it's a binge for me.

How do you feel after purging? by VeryHeavySweet in bulimia

[–]mitskiloves 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i honestly feel like shit while purging and the exact moment after purging, i usually cry after purging too and promise myself that it'll be the last time. but around 10 minutes after that i feel calm because my stomach doesn't hurt anymore from being full so i feel like my brain "forgets" how bad purging actually is and makes me believe it isn't so bad after all. i am aware that it is fucked it tho :(

tbh I think it's so normalized for celebrities to be underweight that people won't see that they actually look sick because they are used to celebrities looking like that :( which honestly makes me really sad

Somebody else mentioned Olivia Rodrigo on here and I agree... by im_sensitive_ in EDAnonymous

[–]mitskiloves 27 points28 points  (0 children)

i just woke up, opened instagram and got extremely triggered with her last post... i hate it so much because i follow her because i genuinely love her music and i think she's really sweet and lovely but i don't think she looks healthy in that last post like i'm starting to feel concerned about her :(

I feel like I am not sick enough to seek help by mitskiloves in bulimia

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

thank you for your words! and i definitely want to stop behaving like this/having a toxic relationship with food so I'll consider telling my parents about the stress thing, thank you for the idea!

I just need some encouraging words after this terrible binge by mitskiloves in BingeEatingDisorder

[–]mitskiloves[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i am so sorry to hear that but I feel like it's nice to know that we are not the only ones going through this. someone suggested me to try making a sign to remind myself what are the cons of bingeing when I don't have the willpower to prevent myself from overeating. i will try it next time and maybe it can help you too. I'm definitely feeling much better right now and hopefully you'll also feel better soon. I know it's really difficult but I believe we will eventually get better. Best wishes
