reaching so hard for darlin to have disordered eating BE NORMAL

HOW IS IT A REACH ITS LITERALLY SAID IN THE SERIES 😭 WATCH THE VIDEO WHERE SAM ORDERS THEM FOOD

people on tumblr when a mentally ill person finds comfort/representation w their favourite character 🤬🤬🤬 IM NOT HURTING ANYONE I LIKE TO THINK OF THEM AS A RECOVERY STORY IT MAKES ME HAPPY AND HOPEFUL OKAY???

I haven't been a public feedee for long, but I already have had my pics stolen by proana accounts for their fatspo. I'm assuming this has happened to you, so I'd like to ask how do you fight the urge to not send them suicide bait

(TW: ED discussion) honestly? i just know they're already completely miserable, lonely too. acts of aggression wont hurt these ppl as much as eating a french fry or smthin will cause them emotional distress, yanno, and thats. sad. theyre very sad people. this doesnt absolve them of the fatphobic abuse they commit as a result of their disorder, at all, but it does kind of take the wind out of my sails when i read the words of someone obviously sick and fueled by self hate. that being said, i wouldnt recommend sending bait like that anyway since it can get your account deleted on most sites. though i can understand lashing out as a reaction to the abuse ofc

also ill just be fr and say that when this happens to me i do usually feel like its a bit of a funny situation (for me, not them). like theyre soooo mad that... i eat good? like im soo sorry that im not hating every second of my life and avoiding the things that make me happy. thats my bad, no yeah it totally makes sense that you would hate looking like me. yeah its soooo icky and im not hot like, at allllll (definitely dont get aroused just from looking in the mirror 😶) lmao i should be like them instead because theyre so happy n aspirational 💀 lmao lmfao even

Tumblr:

"Sorry, porn and anything mildly NSFW (and also queer content but ssshhh it's totally not on purpose we promise) is banned, and we're gonna take down your post / nuke it to hell if you even have a nipple (or if you're trans but ssshh again it's not on purpose don't accuse us of being transphobic)

Also Tumblr:

[ does nothing about the billions of porn bots that follow ppl, TERFs, the pro-ana community, neo-Nazis spreading phrenology and antisemitism again, etc - oh, and does nothing about Tumblr Live which a.) Hosts a bunch of porn videos and B.) Collects your data ]

when someone isnt skinny why is rapid weight loss seen as progress

neurodivergent + eating disorder = getting back to a good enough place mentally that u can eat normally but FUCK YOU ITS SPRING BREAK NO STRUCTURE EAT ONCE A DAY BC U FORGOT

genuine q: why do we trigger tag food? ppl who block that tag, if it's not too invasive, why do you block it? only because I always worry it could just be used to aid restrictive eating disorders.

ED recovery because of T is a beautiful thing. I can do twice my normal exercise with half the effort ✨️

TRIGGER WARNING ;; talk about eating disorders, self-harm, and pro ana / edtwt topics

i used to be in the radqueer community, and something that ive noticed is how.. simply pro-sh / pro-ana these people are. especially within the “transharmful” side of the community, ive flat out seen people give tips on how to “alleviate dysphoria” if youre “transed” or “transsh”. in a lot of radqueer servers ive been in there has been some sort of self harm channel where people can send in their self harm, and encourage others to do so, and even say how “hot” or “pretty” it looks.

the radqueer community is DANGEROUS.

Oh absolutely. 99% of their transabled/transharmed “transitioning” is just disguised s/h.

i love that i can be like , ,ok time to write a one-shot fic thats a bit lighter and easier, just for something simple n nice n fun to do .. .. .. .and the fuckin fic i write is about caleb and caduceus being like same hat 🤝  abt disordered eating

One thing that really sucks about being fat and having anorexia is that I literally have to self treat my eating disorder. I've had doctors think I'm delusional for thinking that I am anorexic and they never believe me when I tell them my diet. I get told that it's not a big deal cause I'm "Obese". My body has always been fat and I've never been able to loose weight, I grew up in food scarcity and starved myself thru my growing years so my metabolism had to slow down to a snails pace just so I don't fucking die. But this means that no matter how much I starve myself, even when I lost all the muscle in my arms legs and core, even when my stomach couldn't handle anything remotely greasy or fatty or high cal without me passing out, even when I am obviously struggling with body dysmorphia, it's never enough to be taken seriously! All cause of genetics poverty and childhood neglect! And now I'm sitting here, stuck trying to fight a serious and deadly disorder on my own lest I get laughed out of the ER again. I weighed myself today and saw that I've lost 13 lbs since the lat time I've weighed myself. I hope to god it's my metabolism finally healing and not the ana winning, cause I know I will die before I get the help I need.

my life has been consumed by my ed to the point that it's hard to fathom anybody being naturally skinny

anyone else have a problem with the way monet’s relationship w/ food is portrayed?

(tw ed mention, i strongly think the show is loosely implying monet has disordered eating and that it hasn’t been properly handled by the writers)

i’m gonna be honest i really hate when tv shows nod at a character having disordered eating behaviors as them being vain. like ggrb does that with monet and luna in s1 and it really bothers me. and then on top of that luna and monet rarely get screentime so ur just supposed to assume they are fine as if they didn’t admit to severely disordered patterns.

and if it doesn’t ring a bell i specifically mean in s1 where luna convinces zoya to “never be seen eating in public” during her makeover, and monet chastising julien for doing so. i don’t like the idea of that just being,,, discarded? in general i find much of monet and luna being discarded, as if their storylines are added in at the very end and audrey and julien and the teachers are made top priority.

i just really find that irresponsible to have borderline disordered behaviors portrayed as monet being vain, and it feels almost demonizing. like, there’s no excuse for projecting her disordered habits onto julien, but her relationship with food is treated entirely flippant and of course it’s actually going to get worse as the seasons go by if it’s a running gag joke but never handled. especially when she’s given seldom given actual development.

monet is also getting to a point where her behavior is constantly harming herself and others and she seems to be going on a spiral because of her mother’s emotional abuse. like, she’s already dealing with untreated mental issues so why imply more as a joke that are never resolved.

i think there’s so much potential to have an actually fleshed out storyline where her disordered behaviors are actually addressed instead of throwaway comments. and that having her behaviors be laughed off is equally as romanticizing as portraying it in a glamorized manner. like in the writing and context there is so much subtext monet is dealing with what might be an eating disorder, but it is never handled. i also didn’t like the line abt intermittent fasting as a diet from monet’s minions. you could very well assume that was encouraged by monet herself, because given how she projects her disordered behaviors onto others, she has plausible reason to do that.

literally the writers keep giving blatant signs monet has a disordered relationship with food and it’s used for laughs when it could be used to represent a black woman as well as a lesbian struggling with and overcoming an eating disorder. not because she’s like blair/not like blair but because she’s her own person with individuals struggles.

i would love to be able to scroll through the transmasc tag without seeing people's fucking thinspo posts.
