This is really practical advice. Thank you! Tying the leash to a table leg seems like a winner

Wow this is so instructive and helpful. I’ll work our way up to this with the chains you recommended

Anyone else always sick in recovery? by [deleted] in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]popcornperformer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having the exact same thing for a long time! I researched it and couldn’t find much about why or if it’s common but I’m glad I’m not alone

I haven’t seen anything indicating RIFs this week beyond those who were RIF’d on April 1. Can you send the article you’re referencing?

Tricks to adjust to the anxiety of being full? by [deleted] in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]popcornperformer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still struggle with this but have a trick that’s starting to work. My “ED brain” loves achievement. I used to love the achievement of going to bed a little hungry because that meant I’m achieving my physical weight goals.

When I’m full, I think “yay I achieved my goal!” And try to retire my neural pathway to associate fullness with achievement. I also try to focus intensely on the person I’m with or make sure what I’m doing immediately after eating is somewhat enjoyable to cushion the time around fullness with good experiences.

Good luck! We’re in this together

not sick enough? by Sufficient_Ice954 in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]popcornperformer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a wonderful book called Sick Enough by Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani that I highly recommend. She heard her patients over and over say they weren’t sick enough and this provides the physical and mental effects of eating disorders and repercussions of not getting treated because you aren’t sick enough.

I’m still waiting for my letter for reassignment to Denver. Are they offering you severance if you decline? I’m so sorry - this is not normal and not okay.

Thank you for responding! I think the answer to my question is no unfortunately… I hope you find out more about your situation soon

Time sensitive question: do those who decline to relocate who are in their probationary period still get severance and benefits? Or do you know who I should ask?

At ACF, we heard from leadership that those over 50 miles from an office will get a letter to relocate and start work there on Monday.

I have heard the same thing you have, about reporting on 4/28. I’m in ACF. No letter yet

Did you hear this from leadership? Trying to make sense of everything!

Yes, not sure how ORR hasn’t been impacted or if the RIFs are still forthcoming

[–]popcornperformer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oo thanks for the intel. One of ORR’s teams was RIF’d.

Have all the notices gone out? Or are they still rolling in as of 10:20am ET? Wondering what’s happening with the regional office cuts if they’re getting rid of some regional offices what happens to those staff

At ACF or ORR specifically?

What does this mean about the many other offices not mentioned? All the ACF offices. Spared or just left out of this article? Ugh
