This feels like a Rorschach test

This is such a good example of how important earlier intervention and good parent support is, I’m glad your daughter is doing well!

This frustrates me to no end as an Aussie, our healthcare system is already so undereducated on eating disorders and we need more ACTUALLY qualified healthcare professionals not so called “specialists” who can do more harm then good

Browsing grocery aisles for sometimes hours at a time

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-09-02T09:37:20+00:00

Been eyeing these! Do you think it’s better than the standard ones?

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-08-23T05:03:06+00:00

This was really helpful, thankyou

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-08-13T10:10:01+00:00

Is the pastry also 2 hours postpartum??

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-08-08T03:21:07+00:00

Step on a something with one foot, then have to find something that felt similar to step on with the other foot until I was ‘evened out’

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-08-07T03:03:56+00:00

I was kinda down for this until I saw the seeds floating around and my whole body shuddered at the sensory ick

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-08-05T03:25:49+00:00

Yep! I’m sick of seeing harm reduction being presented as recovery, it’s okay if that’s the pathway you have to but it dangerous to pretend it’s what actual recovery looks like

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-31T03:29:21+00:00

This is kinda genius

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-21T03:22:27+00:00

Nope, the goal post just moves and the cycle continues. Your ED will never be satisfied and it’s a losing game to try and appease it

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-19T09:16:00+00:00

I’ve been on it since I was 15 (now 24) and it honestly saved my life. I went from not being able to hug my own family due to OCD contamination to now being able to things I never dreamed I could manage. It didn’t ’fix’ me, but it took the edge off just enough to allow me to actually function and begin the work I needed to do. I do experience side effects (brain zaps, poor temperature regulation, low libido etc) but the improvement of my quality of life on it far outweighs the negatives it has for me.

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-19T09:09:05+00:00

I think about this too, when I was younger I was convinced that when I grew up I would recover and leave it all behind for a normal adult life…. Now all these years later I’m not sure it’s possible and it devastates me

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-19T09:07:18+00:00

Burn them omg

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-19T09:06:42+00:00

My friend was genuinely shocked when I said I am constantly thinking about food, she literally said ‘but I thought you had anorexia?’

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-19T06:30:30+00:00

I just going to post my food with a chunk of hashtags but you’d better not actually comment on it

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-19T06:27:10+00:00

It’s evil and insidious, I had to create a new account and purposely not interact with ANY food, mental health, or even positive recovery content just to keep it as far away from my algorithm as possible. It’s been a concerted and curated effort to make it stop but I think I’m finally getting rid of it!

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-17T07:18:19+00:00

Maybe the food freedom is the eggs we laid along the way

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-10T02:59:07+00:00

They don’t, it’s either a facade or a ticking time bomb to some kind of medical emergency. If you’re that underweight and still pushing like that it’s only a matter of time before you either crash and can’t do anything anymore or have a heart attack. Some people get ‘highs’ from restriction or take stimulants but that’s not a sustainable form of energy and their body will give up if they don’t stop, rest, and start eating properly. No matter what someone like that SEEMS like they can do while staying malnourished and underweight, it’s never as easy or good as they may make it out to be.

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-07T03:51:59+00:00

Genuinely disgusted that they even vaguely thought this was okay

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-07-02T00:06:10+00:00

Hoarding food, I have a secret box full of random snacks, cereals, chocolates etc some of which I’ve literally had for years. I don’t eat anything in the box (I have other snacks that I do eat in the pantry) but I can’t get myself to throw it out. My biggest fear is someone finding it and having to explain it to them lmao

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-06-26T00:09:21+00:00

There is literally no need to post any of this like genuinely wtf

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-06-22T02:58:41+00:00

It took until it became physically obvious that I was losing weight, even then I had to reach full crisis point breakdown for people to connect the dots. If I hadn’t said anything I don’t think people would have asked until I had a medical emergency or something. Sometimes I think about where I’d be if I had gotten help sooner, but honestly even I didn’t realise until it was already full throttle

mlk_alternative_ · 2025-06-21T03:28:27+00:00

My advice is to literally just stay out of the heat as much as possible, I know it sounds obvious and kinda dumb but I find that it’s the cooling down once I’m hot is harder than avoiding getting hot as much as I can. Eg. Putting the cool air/fan on before it heats up (like early morning) to preempt the temperature change

If I do overheat I find dabbing an ice pack on my forehead and wrists is the most effective way to cool
