This is a place to share the thoughts that go on in my head that i can't express anywhere else. I'm 18 and have EDNOS. I've been in treatment 3 times for it but im currently struggling. I don't want to say relapsing because i never truly recovered. Ive been dealing with eating problems since i was 11, dealing with weight problems and low self esteem for as long as i can remember. I'm currently not in therapy or anything since i made the decision to quit and try to do things on my own when i turned 18. Obviously it's not working out so great. I used to self-harm and i have an armful of scars (among other places) that i hate and regret every single day. I haven't self-harmed in months. I am always open to talk and anyone can come and vent to me, i do a lot of venting on here. I DO NOT PROMOTE EATING DISORDERS OR ANYTHING ELSE! I am very clear that i am STRUGGLING and hate it, and would NEVER encourage this kind of behavior. This is no way to live.

Bulimia has taken over

I was heavily restricting with the occasional b/p but it was never planned and usually because I was so starved. Then I tried to start eating more and tried to “recover” but instead that spiraled into full on bulimia. I don’t keep anything down anymore. I have huuuge binges and purge multiple times a day. I spend hours doing it, all I think about is food and how much I hate myself. I’ve become hands free as well, which is a total curse. It takes about 60 seconds to get everything out now, therefore nothing stays down anymore even if its what used to be a “safe” food. This is disgusting. I have spent so much money on binge food lately and I’ve been eating dairy because I never plan on keeping anything down anyway. My room is littered with mini trash bags full of wrappers, cups, and other binge things. My face is breaking out, my hair is falling out, and my face is incredibly round and puffy. Bulimia has taken over.

You want an eating disorder? You think this is glamorous.
It’s not. It’s puking up blood. It’s lying to everyone you love. It’s feeling numb. always. It’s losing friends. It’s losing health. It’s losing interest. It’s losing intellect. It’s crying yourself to sleep every night. It’s feeling like shit 24/7.
You know what eating disorders aren’t? they sure as hell aren’t glamorous. I can promise you that.

I cry whenever I see this image. Look at the pain on her face. I’ve been here. This is the truth about eating disorders.

I love you all

Before anyone goes off on me calling me a slut let me just explain.
I see way too many pictures of bigger girls with huge texts posts beneath them, bashing skinny girls. I’m honestly really sick of it….
I’m 5’5”, 118 pounds. I’m a normal weight but I have a small frame. The photo above was just taken. In this photo I have recovered from anorexia. I am not underweight anymore. I am not sick anymore.
That does not mean that I’m not insecure. You’re a big girl and you’re insecure about your body? Boo hoo. I’m a skinny girl and I’m insecure about my body.
And here’s where I think the shit storm of hate will come.
Big girls, you have it so hard being big? You’re so “fat” and “ugly”? You’re insecure about your body? Okay. Tell someone, you’ll get a million supportive people telling you that you’re beautiful the way you are.
Ask a skinny girl what she gets when she voices her insecurities about her body… “You’re not even fat!” “Shut up! You’re just looking for attention!”
Skinny girls get the judgement.
Big girls, you’re not more beautiful than me. Fit girls, you’re not more beautiful than me. Underweight girls, you’re not more beautiful than me.
We all have different bodies and they are all beautiful.
I just have a problem with the big girls that they get away with bashing an underweight girl just because they think they aren’t accepted in society… But how do you think the underweight girl feels?
My name is Brooke. I’ve recovered from anorexia. I’m now a healthy weight. I am skinny. I have insecurities. This is my body, and it is beautiful.

Respect for this girl!!
^ beautiful.

Trying not to purge ughhh

Too much trail mix, LOTS of guac, like 2 bites of egg less tofu salad (there was literally like 1-2 spoonfuls left) 1 small organic corn tortilla with spinach, mushroom, and a small amount of daiya, a couple more sauteed mushrooms that didn’t fit on the tortilla, and one veggie dog. (They are vegan, gluten free and like 50 calories). I feel so full and ughhh. I hate being full and this feels like a total binge but idk if it was or if it was reactive eating considering ive been keeping very minimal food down lately. I’m fighting with myself to keep this down even though it was a lot. I HATE THIS OMG WHY DID I DO THAT UGH.

New plan

Sooo i’ve been going back to being vegan lately…binged on cheese and a little meat last night. Fuuuuuuuuck. While doing it i told myself “you can have it to remind yourself how it’s not really that great and how awful it makes you feel” and that it did. I felt so damn physically heavy and ill and guilty. I just dont care for cheese and meat anymore, the taste isn’t as nice as it used to be. I’m incredibly guilty for eating animal products as well. It all started the other day when i accidentally ate a cheese alternative that i though was vegan but turned out to have casein in it. I have been lenient with being vegan because i had some food products that said “processed on equipment with dairy products” or “may contain traces of…” and then things with sugar or natural flavors which could be vegan but also could not.

I’ve felt better avoiding gluten and then yesterday i had a vegan lunch with some bread and wasnt terribly full or anything, but it made me so sick, so it has to be the bread. Gluten is gonna be something that i have very very rarely. I’m going to try a new plan, but this isn’t about restricting. I actually want to get myself to eat MORE since im keeping very little food down and restricting when i do eat, but focus on healthy, whole natural foods. I’m hoping this will help me get a handle on my b/ping, i go all day eating fine and then at night end up binging and purging. My new plan is this:

  • absolutely NO meat, dairy, eggs, honey, etc… if it comes from an animal, i don’t want it.
  • nothing that i am not sure is vegan. If it has regular sugar, natural flavors, or ingredients im not sure about, i wont eat it.
  • mostly fruits and veggies, but also im going to work on adding proteins and fats with them so apples with peanut butter or veggies with hummus. Healthy fats.
  • I need to also not talk about food at work and not eat at work because i always feel triggered when food comes up or when i eat at work even when it’s my safe food. I also have this fear that people think im obsessed with food or something, but it’s probably just me thinking that cuz the eating disorder is always on my mind telling me those things.
  • I need to do light excercise everyday, like yoga and stretching or sit ups and stuff. Light things, but to make sure my body get’s more movement besides work.
  • Take my medication at regular times

This is my new plan, i NEED to follow it.

becoming a ghost

writingsforwinter:

i became a ghost once,

and saw the reflection of myself

passing through all that i had left behind.

strangers i never knew in life

began, suddenly, to put roses on my grave.

often i would catch hidden glimpses

of my wrists, or my ribs in the mirror,

and i would ache for all that i had once been.
