#disordered eating ////

[semiohazard]

one thing that makes me sad is the fact that most of the time after removing the soul, kris immediately goes to eat or drink. because we've been making them sprint for 9 hours around town on moss and hot chocolate and dark world food isn't real

I have a research background in weight stigma and I currently work in mental health, often with LGBTQ+ clients.

I've met nonbinary people who struggle with disordered eating because they only ever see androgyny depicted as featureless thinness.

I've met trans women who struggle with disordered eating because they've internalized the idea that girls are meant to be thin, dainty, and delicate.

I've men trans men who struggle with disordered eating, because they feel women are allowed to be soft/curvy but men need to be muscular or thin and flat.

So many trans people are convinced that weight loss is the key to appearing as their desired gender, even when they want radically different gender presentations.

The societal idealization of thinness and fatphobia falsely invades and derails people's idea of what their "ideal body" should look like.

[un-monstre]

Something that I wished we talked more about is that some people who recover from eating disorders will become fat. Some people’s bodies will just naturally be a bit bigger, especially after the stress of a lifetime of disordered eating. Weight gain is value neutral and often a part of recovery, and you cannot be fatphobic without directly advocating against people recovering.

Depression and anxiety contribute to my appetite and then I’ll be like “I feel really bad and sad and scared.” because I haven’t eaten. And then I don’t want to eat because I feel really bad and sad and scared and have no appetite. The cycle continues.

nothing has ever snapped me out of a disordered eating/body image issues spiral quite like hearing someone say recently “they want you underfed and weak so you’re easier to control” like damn okay don’t mind if i do have seconds actually

Hua Cheng gently maneuvering Xie Lian into eating 3 square meals a day

Xie Lian knows what he’s doing, but lets him do it because Hua Cheng gets really sad otherwise (and the food he makes is yummy)

tbh I forget to eat for days. that is definitely a problem and probably worsening my health. partially it is autism but partially it is my ulcerative colitis and the knowledge that I usually feel worse after I eat. I battle with nausea and total lack of appetite so sometimes if I do force myself to eat, it will take me like 45 minutes to get through a bagel. I’d like to maintain a healthy relationship with sustenance in 2025.

Ive never seen anyone really depict Horror the same or smaller compared to Killer and Murder/Dust in height wise. its kinda nice seeing him not depicted as this ENORMOUS animal like creature with uncontrolled urges of eating everything that's WAY over exaggerated. very nice seeing it more calmer.

(and he's drawn more closer to the cannon style Anó you make me so happy some times. Hehehe)

Hcchch yep, giant Horror is very popular in the fandom, and while I completely understand why, it genuinely never made sense to me? Cause like how can famin cause someone to become a giant? If anything it should stunt their growth and completely destroy their health

That’s why I also go for thin bones when drawing him too, like if you actually compare him to Murder and Killer, his width is also way smaller than them not just his height

That’s all completely intentional, I want him to look unhealthy thin, it’s all the result of the famine he went through, and not only that, but when it comes to my interpretation of him, he still struggles immensely with eating anything at all, so even under Nightmare, Horror still isn’t eating and if he tries to, his body doesn’t take it well at all and immediately rejects the food

And I absolutely love semi-calm Horror, well not “calm” that’s not the word I’m looking for but something like… idk how to say it, but Horror is smart, under Nightmare it’s better to be out of the way, better to not bring attention to yourself if you don’t wanna end up at the mercy of a wrathful negativity semi-god capable of atrocities, so that’s what he does, keep himself quiet and out of sight

Not only that but Horror generally is just a tired old guy that has no energy left to spend, he barely gets up from bed let alone deal with his shitty boss and coworkers, deals with constant headaches and memory issues too, he definitely has the attitude of “ah shit here we go again”

He can become aggressive quickly and has insane mood swings, but he generally tries staying out of trouble not cause he’s afraid for himself, he’s afraid for his brother, he has his brother’s safety hanging over his head by Nightmare

(And yesssssss i’m do glad to hear that cause I was trying to implement the canon style into my own so I’m glad it’s working chhcchchch glad I make you happy <33333333)

the older i get, the wilder my blood sugar crashes become. i woke up in the afternoon after sleeping about 10 hours, which is my normal schedule. i ate half an ice cream with hot fudge. i went to a dentist appointment. i got home. i suddenly became so tired my vision was blurry. i took a nap at 5PM and woke up 11 hours later at 4AM after having extremely graphic nightmares involving a volcano exploding on me and also, for some reason, hilary duff, jim carrey, and the mcelroys.

before anyone gets Legit Worried, i promise i'm not diabetic. i'm just 29.

[brionysea]

do you ever want point at the screen and say 'look at how mike wheeler's family criticised his eating habits one (1) time and he proceeded to spend the next four seasons portraying textbook symptoms of disordered eating' or do you have a mother who's normal

[contemptuous-carlot]

Is IBS a "hot girl" affliction, or is it the physical manifestation of the constant low-level stress, anxiety and disordered eating endemic in women and girls trying to fit a narrow and misogynistic ideal?
