This page used to be very toxic and filled with eating disorder posts and things that were just overall very bad for my own and others mental health. I no longer want to use this page for eating disorder posts as I have spent the last year recovering and am in a much better place now (and seeing the old posts trigger me beyond belief). So, I have cleared my page of all my old posts and encourage anyone who wants ed content to unfollow me seeing as I want nothing to do with that side of tumblr anymore. Hope you all understand ❤️

the thing is that I hate this place, I hate this dissease, I fucking hate all of this, but I just can't stop, I can't, and I don't even know why.. but I'm still here.. and I'm not going anywhere

doctors are so fucking funny; if you go in like "based on my extensive research and corroborations i think i have this Disease" they will immediately go on the defensive and ask you demeaning shit like "how do you even know this Disease exists?" but if you go in and play stupid and say "gee whiz i'm just a silly little bimbo who doesn't know a thing but i have symptom, symptom, symptom, and symptom" they will very eagerly be like "oh wow, that sounds like Disease!"

Haaaave you seen what happened with the NABJ Dumpy interview? WHO thought this would be a good idea? The Harris campaign must be setting off fireworks right how. I am just stunned his team A. let him do this in the first place and B. LET HIM STAY UP THERRE FOR SO LONG AND KEEP SAYING STUPID SHIT. Holy fuck.

Jesus rollerskating Christ. I took a peek at the Tweetymachine and this was just a sample of what popped up:

So let's recap, he was an hour late because he didn't want to be fact-checked in real time, he was booed onstage, he was supposed to talk for an hour and was yanked after 34 minutes (in the middle of a question about Project 2025, not-coincidentally), he rambled and insulted black people in front of the National Association of Black Journalists, insulted Kamala yet again, questioned whether she was "actually" black (they want to do Obama birtherism so bad they just can't help themselves), denigrated a black female reporter who actually asked him tough questions, and.... got this for it, I guess. Wow.

Good luck, Donnie Dumptruck!

Do you have any comforting words/advice/distractions for someone in ed recovery who just suffered through a rough family thanksgiving…? It’s my first holiday season in recovery and it’s has been difficult especially since no one in my family really understands what I’m going through.

hi my love!!! holidays with eds are so hard, especially in recovery. i only spent the day with my parents and sister and it was hard. i am so so so proud of you, you made it through the day!! look at you go!! it's really hard when people don't get it. and sometimes they try, but they still don't get it get it, y'know? i think sometimes that's actually harder.

this got long (as always) so more below the cut

for me, holiday meals are always a time of stress. a lot of foods, a lot of people, a lot of smells. it's very overwhelming. i've found it easiest to have a meal plan in place and have someone else in charge of it, generally my mom. cause the last thing i want to do is go into the kitchen and chaos to make my food. i eat what i can in the moment and focus on the conversation to keep my mind off it. if you have to slip out for a moment, or leave before dessert, that's totally okay. if you need some more food afterwards when you're on you're own, that's totally okay. i'm currently in bed eating cereal cause i got hungry again. whatever you need to do to cope is okay.

and don't feel pressured to tell people what's going on. i'm quite honestly not sure how much my extended family knows about my ed cause i haven't specifically said anything, but at this point it's just become something i do. y'know i have my own food at family meals and that's just what i do. and at this point thankfully there's minimal comments about it. you do not owe your family anything. if you're open to sharing, go for it! if you're not, you don't have to.

afterwards, do a lil mini assessment of yourself. do you need some more food? do you need some water? (yay hydration) do you need some time alone to decompress? do you need to not think about food at all and go crawl into bed? it's okay not to know how you're feeling, lord knows i rarely do. just make sure to spend some time for you in the evening/next day. i'm currently watching my comfort show from middle school to relax. it's working surprisingly well.

so so so so so unbelievably proud of you. i know i said that already but you deserve to hear it again. holidays are already hard, for any number of reasons. add the whole food mess to it and they're even harder. you did great today. keep on fighting and keep on taking care of you <333

[eddiepeaches]

hi eddie do you think tiny ed and stede would befriend a capybara 🥺

hi ida ty for the ask!! I think tiny stede would be very excited and tiny ed would be less excited (it's fuckin' nature, after all, and much bigger than he is!!) but would eventually warm up to the capybara

hey ppl, idk if anyone in here use it yet, but I'm just in a middle of collapse.

I've been trying to stop with ana's thing, I've tried to be better, I really did, but I just realized that I can't.

i gain a lot of wheight since my last post here, bc my life get better, I star dating the guy I was in love since 2019, I star living alone and now I live with my boyfriend, but yk, it's really hard live with someone who doesn't understand your disorder.

My boyfriend and I study psychology, and idk how he can't understand how I feel abt my body, like it's all in my head, he study it and don't understand? WTF?

I'm trying to eat less those days, bc I can't even look at the mirror, and it's been fucking hard for me, it's like I'm running in circles yk? bc even if I stop eating I don't loose any wheight..

And today he just said that my grandma said to him that I gain weight, and that he has to help me lose it. And this is a fucking kitten for me yk? I listen to it and my humor just transformed in a depressive thing, he asked me what was going on, and when I sair he just become mad at me, like??? It's not my fault, I just didn't choose having ed, I didn't choose listen ana's voice in my head, I've tried a lot to just tell her to go fuck herself but she's don't go away..

i keep thinking if ppl around me thing thar I like to look as the mirror and hate myself, if they thing that I like to count all calories our feel guilty after eat, like that's no possible, i don't link to measure my arm everyday to see if they are skinny enough or to take pictures of my body everyday in the morning bc I can't see my real body in the mirror, i don't like to pass out bc I don't eat, i don't like to cry bc I have to eat, THAT'S NO COOL and I don't think it is.

But I just can't drop it all in the trash and pretend that I do t have an ed..

I've decided to taking my meds again, but not bc I want to be better, i just want it bc I want to control my anxiety, so then I can lose weight, yk how fucked up I am????

anyway.. Christmas its coming and I do t want to hear "omg you gain weight" i want to hear "omg you have to eat" so I'm gonna do whatever I can to hear it.

I'm no asking for help.. just saying how I feel

It's great to be back here, ate least here everyone understands me.

Happy birthday!!!! More FMA!

He’s fucking tired.

In Xerxes, he’s Van Edris. In Xerxes, he’s the son of a former slave, having narrowly escaped being born into his father’s fate by virtue of him being awarded freedom by the time of his birth. In Xerxes, he’s an uncommon commodity, an alchemist with a skill that hasn’t been seen since his father fucked off to who knows where.

In Amestris, he’s Edward Elric. In Amestris, he’s the son of Trisha Elric who was born free and died free because while there are lots of different forms of freedom, in Amestris there’s one that everyone shares. In Amestris, he’s unknown and unremarkable and no one gives a fuck about what he does.

“You’ve got to be kidding me,” he says flatly.

This is what he gets for visiting his father’s country. It’s just fucking unfortunate that the really good alchemical texts are here.

He should have let Al (Van Altun, as they know him, even though the two of them having been using their Amestrian names almost their whole lives, regardless of what country they were in) do it. They’re not nearly as weird about him.

Pakor is alright, as far as kings go. He’s freed a lot of people, is poking at the laws of ownership that has governed his country for centuries to see if he can do anything about them without getting beheaded for it. He’s also known Ed since he was a barely able to walk, back when his father still made court appearances and brought the family along with him. Former slave against most talented alchemist in the country, and people tended to politely ignore the former. Hell, Ed’s been counting on the same thing since he was twelve.

Of course, now it’s coming back to bite him. People say he’s a genius, but if he was really smart he would have stayed far, far away from court. Like in Amestris, perhaps.

“You’re fluent in both languages,” Pakor says, coaxing.

“So are you,” he says accusingly. “We’re speaking Amestrian right now!”

Pakor sighs and switches to Xerxian. “You also speak Xingese and Drachman. You’re a difficult man to keep secrets from.”

“I’m also Amestrian!” he shouts. “And free, might I add! You can’t sell me off to slavery just to get some intel!”

“It’s not like we’ll brand you,” he says, affronted, and Ed is reminded that alright for a king is still pretty shitty. “We just need someone to do a little – double checking. To ensure the situation in Amestris is as it’s advertised.”

“You want to gift me to the Fuhrer to spy on him and you’re, what, just hoping he doesn’t notice that I understand everything and know everything and am, oh yeah, one of his citizens? I’ve been to Central before! With my luck, I’ll get recognized the first day here and then run out of Amestris! And, again, Amestris doesn’t have slaves! The leader of the country really can’t have one.”

Pakor sighs. “You’re very dramatic, Edris. It won’t be so bad. Here, I’ll say you’re my personal slave and that you’re on loan. It’ll be for cultural exchange purposes. He speaks Xingese, so you can communicate in that language without letting on you know Amestrian.”

Ed pinches the bridge of his nose. “This is a stupid fucking idea.”

“If you do this,” Pakor says, “I’ll give you the key to the royal library.”

Ed slowly lowers his hand, eyes narrowing. “I’ve been asking you to let me in there for years.”

“I figured I’d need to bargain it away eventually,” he says. “I was hoping you’d marry one of my daughters for it.” Having even light court obligations is bad enough, he’s in no way stupid enough to marry in. “You’re very difficult, you know. I’m your king. I shouldn’t have to bargain with you.”

“Tough shit,” Ed says, because Pakor may have known him for nearly twenty years, but that knowing goes both ways. Besides, he can’t piss him off because then he and Al will stop reparing all their shit bridges and infrastructure. “Fine. But if I lose my Amestrian citizenship over this, I’m going to be pissed.”

“Noted,” Pakor says brightly.

Uhg.

It doesn’t help that everything he’s heard about Fuhrer Mustang makes the man sound insufferable.

if he's your man then why is he painting himself on a wedding topper and putting it next to mine
