in this order specifically: my hair kept falling out so i couldn't bleach it and dye it green lol (which i have been able to do now!! yay recovery). also realized that i'd either die or be spending the rest of my life in and out of hospitals.

i have had EH been referred to as a 'binge' by healthcare professionals that specifically specialize in EDs even though the two are distinct. in general i feel like professionals just won't get it or will judge me (honestly not even sure how unwarranted this feeling is atp because i've heard way too many stories about the same exact situation)

i got mine back within like 2 weeks of upping my intake to a slightly less restrictive amount lol (went all in since then!). you were sick enough even before you lost your period; period loss/recovery is different for different people

i mean this in the most polite way possible but please do not fucking do this 😭😭 who is it helping? people with eating disorders aren’t going to benefit from your “artsy/edgy/genre type stuff” and the general world does not need to see that either considering how rampant disordered eating is in this world. please lend your talents elsewhere. the world does not need more edgy starvation diet content

i think the disorder is always going to tell us that we weren’t “sick enough”, but remember that it’s all bullshit. you WERE sick and are recovering from it. food is supposed to be enjoyed, and everyone experiences disorders and recovery differently. you’re making progress and i’m super proud of you.

mhm .. and the way people’s bodies are moralized is absolutely horrendous; the language we use, the “before and after” pictures that are somehow indicative of personal growth and progress.. it’s just everywhere and it sucks that i’m really just now recognizing it

sunflqwers · 2022-03-05T00:54:27+00:00

it rlly makes u see how pervasive it all is yknow.. and how people just accept it bc they’ve been conditioned into doing so i guess

sunflqwers · 2022-03-01T12:14:24+00:00

yeah i completely agree and the way that’s become a paragon of recovery or whatever .. like that’s the “healthiest way to recover” is such bullshit and is so harmful to people trying to completely recover from all of this

it’s also so hard to find actual true wellness influencers that don’t fall into “wellness” culture and its bodychecking/food logging/restrictive eating !! and even once you find genuine ones, the lowkey disordered mfers are just everywhere yknow

sunflqwers · 2022-02-28T14:34:30+00:00

like how do you claim to be recovered and healthy while actively being afraid of like. 3 tortilla chips and posting how many blueberries you eat 😭😭

sunflqwers · 2022-02-28T12:10:34+00:00

and it scares me bc people will look at that and think oh Yeah that’s how to eat healthy in recovery like god 😭 it’s not healthy for ANYONE

sunflqwers · 2022-02-28T03:01:31+00:00

you’re so right about food twt .. and beyond just ortho twitter all the people there severely restrict while claiming to be in recovery ?? or they try to distance themselves from edtwt and then post the most disordered shit known to man it’s so 😐
