I was craving ramen. I knew we had some in the kitchen. I couldn’t think about anything else. So I got up and went into the kitchen…and made myself a cup of tea.

Read the post before you get pissed off at me.

• Stop standing up so fast. You know damn well that you get dizzy from that, so stand up slowly. If you still get dizzy or start to black out, sit back down and take deep breaths until you go back to normal, and then try to stand up slowly again.

• Don’t work out until you pass out or puke. Just walk. It burns a lot calories and it’s much easier to do. I do this instead of working out and I lose up to 3 lbs a day sometimes.

• Sleep (if you can). Your body is tired as fuck. You don’t eat very much and sleeping will help re-energize you.

* Leaving class every hour to pee and fill your water bottle up

* Hate seeing/feeling your stomach touch your thighs when you sit down to pee

* Basing your own worth and others’ based off their weight/size

* Can’t go to the bathroom without lifting up shirt to check stomach and ribs in the mirror

* Chewing gum to simply stay focused

* Sleep schedule run amok because you’re so demotivated to anything but the bare minimum these days due to your malnutrition, plus sleeping is a good loophole to avoid eating

i had a experience today where my body overheated i started to lose focus in my schoolwork my heart started beating so loud and fast and hurting like a mf and i thought “omg this is it this is how i die i am going to die in the middle of art class” then i decided to try to alert someone i tapped my friends thigh my breathing was shaky and loud and my face was red and tried to tell her “get the teacher somethings happening” all that came out was a scrambled mumbled sentence and i thought i was about to faint but she understand and the teacher got her to take me real quick and since she knew i was anorexic she got a proteing bar and made me eat that shit and the second i took a bite everything slowly started to calm down and i have honestly never been more terrified

When you don’t eat, your blood sugar goes DOWN. This causes a variety of symptoms:

-An irregular heart rhythm

-Fatigue

-Pale skin

-Shakiness

-Anxiety

-Sweating

-Hunger

-Irritability

-Tingling sensation around the mouth

-Crying out during sleep

-Confusion, abnormal behavior or both, such as the inability to complete routine tasks

-Visual disturbances, such as blurred vision

-Seizures

-Loss of consciousness

ALWAYS make sure you have a fast acting carbohydrate on you. Orange juice, LifeSavers, (NOT DIET) soda, dried fruits (raisins), bananas, glucose gel/tablets, energy bars, rice cakes, pretzels, other candies.

These will correct your blood sugar (bring it up) in 5-15 minutes!!!!! Eat them when you start to feel faint or right after you pass out. Hydrate yourself as well!!!

I have never been so scared.

I had a BMI of 21 and had only been restricting for a month.

That would be hypocritical

But if your going to cut, please take care of yourself afterwords

Clean the wounds with warm water

Rinse dried blood from the area

Dry the wounds with paper towel, or a dry towel. Do not use a fluffy towel or tissues because fibers may get into the cut and cause scarring

If you have any, put Aquafor or a thin healing ointment on the wound or area-like what you would put on a healing tattoo

If you can, wear shorts or a tank top to bed; let the wounds dry and breathe overnight.

While it’s important to take care of yourself physically, it’s also important to take care of yourself emotionally

If you were crying, please drink some water

If you are feeling emotionally drained or numb, try to overcome it. Journal. Shower. Talk to a friend. Try not to let the numbness consume you

If you’re angry, hit a pillow, scream at the top of your lungs, let it out

If you’re feeling suicidal, PLEASE tell somebody, call or text a hotline, or distract yourself. Do what you need to, but PLEASE don’t act on your intrusive thoughts or impulses. You matter.

Forgive yourself. Eventually you’ll heal- physically, emotionally, mentally. You can overcome this. You will recover.

I know it isn’t easy, but try to take care of yourself.

You are important.

Your life matters.

You are worthy of a full and long life.
