life has mysterious ways of teaching me lessons because i did end up being sick :( i'm not sure if i willed it upon myself or if there was truly something off with the food
yesterday i ate vegan food for lunch and dinner with a friend. i'm feeling nervous about it because since there were fake meats and cheeses, i basically don't know what i was eating. but i also understand my feeling sick is more likely to be from arfid than from the food.

i miss birthdays when you were a kid. you would have cake + presents. this year i got slippers, a post card, and called an oldhead 😭

people keep asking me where i want to go out to eat

yeah… i think you know my feelings 🥲

currently eating: a slice of homemade pie. with coffee. AKA the best, most indulgent breakfast ever.

thoughts of my stomach or the scale can't fuck with me today. i am more powerful. even if i can't be as happy as i want to be, i will still try to enjoy my birthday.

i hope you are all doing well

Hello! I am a transexual man i'm looking in the market for a new binder but I'm not sure of a good brand. I am a D cup or slightly larger in size, but most brands have failed to actually flatten my chest enough. Anyone know bran's that work for larger chest sizes?

the holiday sweet of pretzels with chocolate and a pecan on top should not count as a sweet… let me eat it guilt free 😅

as far as my last post, no, there is not a "good enough" for your disorder. it will always want more and it is not afraid to take it from you. it is not afraid of anything. it's very hard to remember this at some times, so, i want to remind myself.

cw self harm (bfrb/ocd)

the nail i half ripped off is growing back unevenly, but it is growing back! there's the one normal side and the rest of it looks quite bad to others but inspiring to me. the hold the compulsions have on me is as bad as the depression, anxiety, and arfid, i swear

one of the worst feelings is bringing food to your mouth and knowing even before you bite down that you cannot* eat it. brain says no.

*you can, it's just stressful for 20mins afterward

ik ppl talk about hitting a flow state of the disorder but consider: hitting a flow state of being full + sober + filled with confidence

just got back from getting sandwiches. my brain was more than half convinced it was utterly disgusting garbage i was chewing, but i really needed to eat something… even though i ate a meal today i almost passed out while driving with the kids in the back seat… my brain hates me so much :(

if you ever want a kind word i'm here. if you don't want someone to be nice to you… that makes me sad. i've been there though. let me know what your boundaries are and i'll respect them.
