Let's be honest, the early stages of recovery are rubbish, really rubbish. But not going to the toilet for two weeks seems to be a taboo subject despite the fact that it is very real. Maybe I'm jaded after so long going round and round but I think all this positivity is hugely detrimental. Find me Here: hollygriffiths.co.uk Here: holz105 Here: hllylzbth (tw) Here: tw...

    Hi, due to health reasons, I was not able to eat enough protein during pregnancy and unfortunately I did not take any vitamin D supplements. In addition, they were twins, so my need increased. Now that I'm worried about whether this could have harmed my children in the long term (especially from a cognitive point of view), so I wanted to ask you. What was it like for you? Have you taken vitamin D and zinc? Did you take extra proteins? If not: are your children really completely healthy and can they concentrate well in school? I hope for an honest yet reassuring answer. A heartfelt thank you.

    I don't understand, what do you ladies mean when you say you don't see yourself in the mirror? If you can put on makeup and do your hair , obviously you can see yourself? Do you actually hallucinate and see yourself fatter than you are? Or do you just not like what you see and feel very upset at some of the fat in undesired places?

    Thank you for making this. You described my life for the last 30+ years although there are times of being at normal weight but all the thoughts and rituals are still there and the desperation to lose weight. As the years go by, it’s harder and harder especially because the body destroys itself. I have many permanent damaged parts to my health, and yet, it doesn’t end. This video is 5 yrs old so I really hope you’ve found recovery finally. I wouldn’t wish my life on anyone. Thank you for your videos and I look forward to seeing more.

    MUST READ Are you Looking for natural/ traditional medicine to schizophrenia/ OCD without any side effect Dr. ZAIN is the best because he the apply accent ways of healing with spiritual means, After my son being diagnosed of schizophrenia in 2018, I have used numerous medicine for him with no improvement. He spent most of the summer in the hospital. I remember him feeling abandoned and terrified of the many injection needles that seemed necessary to keep him calm. All Western Medicine used in the past did not have any noticeable difference,one day as i was going through the internet i came across so many people with schizophrenia and other mental health issues testifying about DR. ZAIN traditional remedies,i ordered for it online,that's when he started using the Medicine,and now he is completely cured from schizophrenia , his medicine is a permanent cure to schizophrenia, contact Dr Zain on his Email ( dr.zainnailan@gmail.com)

    I was diagnosed with BDD two years ago. Still struggling beyond words. Never let anyone take photos of me or anything. And feel an immense sense of disconnection from who I percieve myself to be - i don't know who i am anymore or what i look like. Sometimes I miss when i was younger and more innocent and didn't even think about how i looked at all. Its an awful disorder and causes so much anxiety its debilitating. Its comforting to know people like you exist who also struggle with it. Thankyou for posting this❤️

    “You look worse at this weight than you did at your weight before anorexia” - this is BRUTAL! I KNOWWW I don’t look good with my bones sticking out. Even though my body dysmorphia has me thinking differently, in my mind, I see different and that different is FAT! “Eating isn’t that hard. Just put food in your mouth and chew, then swallow the food” - Yeah I’m not an idiot you ass. I know HOW to eat, I just can’t MAKE myself eat against my ED thoughts! “I wish I was anorexic cuz then I’d be able to lose weight without effort” - oh really...?! Yeah okay. Did anybody forget to mention to you the hell you’re put through during anorexia? Migraines, orthostatic hypotention, amenorrhea, anemia, gastroparesis, just to name a few....It’s not like we chill, relax, and sit back while pounds melt off of us y’know “You look sick and gross being really underweight” - thanks for telling me and adding more depression to my life. It’s not like I already didn’t feel guilty enough for having this problem for years... “You wear an XS/S? You don’t look like you wear that size” - yeah neither do you but guess what? I happen to be those sizes so shut up “I think you should GAIN 10 more pounds” - well I think you should LOSE at least 10 more pounds. How does it feel to hear that? “You’ve has this mental problem for how many years already. Just get over it for god sake” - excuse me? Last time I heard, mental health doesn’t come with an ‘expiration’ or ‘best before’ date when in recovery or trying for remission “You know anorexia is dangerous, right” - no shit sherlock! I ain’t going through this for the fun of it. Clearly I’m aware of my issue and I don’t need you pointing out the obvious “Have you even tried stopping/getting better/talking to a counsellor??” - noooo, neverrrrr. Why in the world would I, someone who’s dealt with this for x amount of years, wanna do that? Having the chance to live a decent life without all the shit that goes on with anorexia? Pftttt you utterly inconsiderate and unintellectual twat. Like DUH I’ve tried and STILL AM!!!! Ughhhh!!! There are so many more hurtful and harmful things I could list that I have been told throughout my 3 years of having anorexia. However, these seem to be the most recurring of them all. But in all honesty, since mental health tends to thrive off of secrecy and silence, recovery seems to do the same (or at least that’s how mine works). The less you talk about it to me, whether you have good intentions with it or not, and you just simply leave me be, the better chance I have at actually making decent and somewhat linear progress!

I take 10000 pics everyday and i dont even have social media i just want to see what other people see in my face and see how ugly i am. I have awful skin with expression lines awful small eyes and a wonky nose, wonky eyes. Its on my mind all day everyday.
