  • Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

Anyone else hate being fat, but can't really find other ways to cope than eating?
I hate it... if I'm stressed- I eat, if I'm tired- I eat, if I'm down- I eat, when I hate how fat and ugly I am- I eat.
I just eat, and then I hate myself for eating when I'm already like 2x the size of a normal person so I don't eat for a few days until I either pass out or give in to temptation and stuff my fucking face again.
I end up eating once a day to try to keep myself in a somewhat functioning routine since I have responsibilities to take care of and need to function during the day but I end up binging almost every night.
After nightly binges for a while I gain some weight and go back to point 1 of binging every few days in between not eating until I faint.
Worst thing is that I don't even want this to get better, I just want to shift my focus on avoiding food and going back to my cozy ANA mindset rather than being unable to stop stuffing my face like a pig every night🤦🏾‍♀️

Anyone else who struggles with recovery due to a viscious cycle like this?

I hate how I look and it makes me sad, when I'm sad I turn to food which makes me look worse and in turn increases the depression.

Just commenting to say that I feel the same way. I use food to cope with my feelings, and it's all I ever think about nowadays. I use both food and starvation as reward and punishment for myself. One of my reasons to ctb is even because I hate having a body and needing to rely on food to keep myself alive.

Sorry I can't offer any helpful words or anything! Eating disorders suck and it's hard to talk to people irl about them because there's a lot of misconceptions about having an ED, and it can be difficult to put ED thoughts into words that can be understood by people who don't know what it's like. I genuinely hope you find a good support system or are able to work through your negative feelings about this and find peace.

If I'm around friends or a partner 24/7 I stop eating and I lose a lot of weight rapidly, because I'm very uncomfortable with eating infront of anyone in general so I just eat a tiny cheese baguette and a sugar free redbull or something which is around 300 calories per day before I hang out with them. I also have such a fun time usually that I forget about food anyway.
