My own place to vent.
I've been going on 200-500 calories for a week, I've lost a lot of weight - however, I want even more. I've been knocking everything down with zero cola or lots of smoking disposables. I want to lose weight, I want to be beautiful, I want to be perfect.

TRIGGER WARNING, THIS POST IS ABOUT EATONG DISORDERS!!! KEEP YOURSELVES SAFE!!!!
I'm in my developmental psychology class in college and I am PISSED that my middle AND high school totally misexplain eating disorders!!!!
They always told me anorexia is the "not eating one" and bulimia I'd the "purging/vomiting one" BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE!
Anorexia is categorized but being dangerously underweight, a relentless pursuit of thinness, and a distorted body image
This can be achieved through purging behavior!
This is the one you may hear about having a specific weight criteria
Bulimia can be normal weight or even slightly over!
They are characterized by regular engagement in binge eating episodes followed by purging or compulsory weight loss behavior
Not necessarily vomiting!
They might feel a loss of control around food and will end up trying to "make up" for it by vomiting, laxatives, other medication OR over exercising!
I know high schools and especially middle schools tend to 'dumb down' their information to make it easier for children to learn and to get through enough material but is it really appropriate to dumb down eating disorders?!
Come on!!
I think this is very important for people to know! If you think you may have an eating disorder, including binge eating which I didn't mention in the post bc it is usually taught correctly (or at least it was to me), but please seek help!
There are people who care about you! You matter and there is nothing wrong with your body or your brain!
You are perfect how you are, please don't feel afraid to ask for the help you need!

I said, "I don't want to go. "
I don't want to go. I want to sleep.
No one listens to me. No one listens to me. No one listens to me. No one listens to me. No one listens to me. No one listens to me. No one listens to me. No one listens to me.
Why am I here. Why am I awake. I want to sleep.

Eating Disorder Pride Flag
[IMAGE ID: a flag with five horizontal stripes with the central being bigger. Their colors are, from top to bottom, green, light green, greenish grey, light green and green.]
I’ve redesigned this pride flag since it was so aggressive to my eyes and was designed by someone who apparently supports the transabled movement. Please check the blog @transcendent-mogai-pride-flags for more information. I’m currently working on redesigning the other flags (anorexia, bulimia, etc) please send an ask if you wanna see any other eating disorder·s.
I'm with tMOGAIpf.

This Eating Disorder Awareness week I'd like to bring attention to two groups of people who are less represented in the ED community: masculine people and older people. Everyone sees the "young privileged white anorexic girl" represented in media and rarely people of color, men/boys, and older people.
Everyone who suffers from an ED deserves recognition of their pain and suffering, no matter their demographic. Everyone who suffers from an ED deserves treatment and acceptance of their illness, no matter how "severe" it seems, what their weight is, and whether or not they fit the age old "skinny teenage white girl" we all see in media.
Your suffering matters. You do not have to "get sicker" in order to be "disordered enough" for treatment. Please get help, because the longer you wait the worse your ED will get.
My inbox is open for anyone suffering, as long as you don't promote EDs- that is despicable behavior and only harms others in the eating disordered community.

MIRROR
The mirror holds an image
Obscure
and gloomy
The image smirks and shrieks with laughter
like a madman
whose sanity left unnoticed
without warning.
The mirror is a reflection
of imperfection
ugliness
and filth.
One look in the mirror
and desperate screams
are heard everywhere
the drumming in the head comes out of nowhere
nails are digging holes in the skin
scratching ribs
want to open the ribcage
and take the ribs out.
It’s disdain
that is seen in the reflection.
Eyes are bullets shots spreading dread.
It’s shame
and hatred
of the one looking in the mirror.
The looker is spilling tears and
screams
screams
screams.
The looker looks in the mirror
the mirror reflects
the looker’s face.
