i never let myself go past halfway in my phone LMAO. i do the same when i’m in my car but it goes way higher so i stop myself at the level 10 and occasionally 12 when i’m in the mood to care less about hearing damage

hey ☼｡˚❀ * ꕤ i’m looking for new friends or just short term chats ! we can talk about whatever or you can vent or i can vent lol…
some things i like are ariana grande, coffee, holidays (i love halloween and christmas), avocado, fries (idk i’m just naming random stuff HAHAHA), cats (very much), and i love spooky movies.
my favorite colors are light pink, dark blue, and grey right now :))
i love texting people i wish i could text 24/7 😭

this is pretty straight forward but my ed is always way worse in winter… there’s something about the cold ass air that makes it feel more ‘aesthetic’ and i love all the hot soups and drinks and stuff 🥲 i romanticize it way too much then. i also get much paler so of course i romanticize that in myself because it makes me feel sick. sigh. summer is so meh to me because it’s harder for me to romanticize my issues and i just get depressed HAHA. pls tell me someone relates

*i’m not encouraging anything just curious !!!!

this seems to be way more uncommon than i thought based on videos from tiktok/instagram, but does anyone else wash their hair daily?

i have pretty thin/soft hair and i’ve never left it unwashed long enough to determine if it’s particularly greasy or anything (i don’t think it is?), but i literally just wash it every day out of habit. always have. i didn’t know it was -the odd thing- until i started seeing tiktoks a couple years back where almost every woman ever says they have hair wash days lol. i obviously don’t find people going days without washing disgusting or anything - not my business and i’m sure that’s perfectly hygienic, but i can’t NOT wash it daily haha. i have medium length hair so it takes me like 2 mins total to lather & rinse and then a few more for conditioner. i usually let it air dry which takes a couple hours or just sleep on it kinda damp in braids tbh 💀

sorry for the sad vibes but genuinely 99% of people recovered from ed’s are just orthorexic or still have a bad relationship to their body/food

i’m actively somewhat relapsing atm and keep either starving or bingeing and just… the fact the 10 year anniversary of struggling with food is coming up for me in a couple years is bothering me so bad; i feel like i’ve gotten nowhere and therefore i’ll never get nowhere and i’ll just die feeling this way when i’m old omg 😭

is anyone else repulsed by animal products? i know this is a vegan page but i’m curious how many people are grossed out by them vs just don’t support it

i wish i could say animal torture is what made me initially start avoiding dairy/meat/etc but cheese and milk and even some meats just kinda always made me gag and i barely ate them, THEN i started learning about slaughterhouses and stuff 💀

i’ve had eras in my life where i was half-recovered but i still don’t think i ever stopped body checking

i feel like even if you get to a point where you eat well/eat healthily and in moderation or don’t purge/overexercise, you still body check (or at least i do)

is it just body acceptance? do people that accept themselves NOT body check?

i want to first mention that this is about masturbation and not sex. i don’t plan on having sex like anytime soon or ever LMAO but i assume it would go similarly

so basically anytime i decide to do penetration when masturbating, without fail my stomach will hurt a few hours afterwards or the next day, and it feels very similar to my period cramps. it lasts an hour or even throughout the whole night. again it’s definitely cramping because it doesn’t feel like stomach pain or fullness per se it feels like uterus pain/similar to periods when your uterus is literally shedding blood and stuff

i’ve used a COUPLE things before but generally i just use my fingers and it’s not like they’re particularly long or thick or anything 💀 and i always do it ‘right’, i don’t impale myself or anything or go super hard and i’m never like “dry”/not turned on. obviously when i orgasm i can feel myself get tighter but i wouldn’t say i have vaginismus or anything- it just feels like how i think an average vagina does

now clearly the duh thing to do would be see an obgyn, but i have so much history with them from other stuff they don’t help me with so idk how much they’d do when they always dismiss me (and YES i’ve seen like four so it’s hard out here… women’s health is actually a joke and they all seem to be in it for obstetrics). :/ so if any of my fellow women have any tips or insight on why this could be or how to prevent it, it would be sooo helpful !!!
irdk what could even help but maybe someone relates and can at least tell me what it is? thank you

does anyone else feel like they just get warmer than everyone else in general? like yes, when i’m overheated (which doesn’t make much…) my hands and feet get super red/hot, but in general i’m just always SO much warmer. like why is my family’s house at 72 right now and i’m literally warm when my sister has a thick ass sweater and feels fine 💀

so two years ago i developed what i believe is the harold patch of pityriasis rosea. it is very small and on my leg, and as far as i know this is something that is NOT contagious or harmful, thankfully. although i read once that it can indicate something harmful, like lingering infection in the body for example (idk how true that is).

anyways, i know it’s pityriasis rosea because it fits all the descriptions - and it temporarily spreads into a rash down my leg anytime i take hot showers, and then goes away after 10 minutes or so (besides the harold patch.

anyways, EVERY video i’ve never watched, even by dermatologists, say there’s no treatment …:,) literally just that you can take vitamin d (done), wait it out (clearly done that), and that there is not other treatment… which is so annoying. i’m just supposed to have it forever? it annoys me and i’m always worried people are going to think it’s ringworm when it’s not (trust me i had ring worm as a kid from a water park and it looked way grosser and went away with antifungals, but normal people don’t know that and just see: prickly red circle)

sooooooo any further insight would be really helpful 😭 i’m tired of other doctors online basically saying to wait it out when it’s been years. i’ve actually only seen my family physician for it but she alsooo said there’s no treatment so i shouldn’t even bother doing anything as long as it doesn’t cause pain (bruh. a girl can’t be insecure??)

*i am a 20 yr old female, 120 lbs, 5’5, i’m on no medications, i don’t smoke or drink - i have other illnesses but they’re also kind of unknown/untreatable/‘chronic’. only known/diagnosed illness is erythromelalgia but that started years prior and seems unrelated ish

so i’ve had em for over 4 years, but it’s gotten WAY WORSE the last 2. i recently was researching and i found out that there was a case where em was treated through doing an e****ndoscopic lumbar sympathectomy (idk why this is being censored it won’t let me write it) surgery. i’m not that smart and idk much about it, but basically they cut somewhere in the body to remove a chain/the lumbar ganglia nerves (the patient only had em in his lower half but i think it’s something similar for upper body em).

anyways… the patient, through photos, didn’t seem to have nearly as bad of a case as me, who’s hands and feet both turn BRIGHT hot red at the sensation of any heat at all… literally from long walks, temp above 70° ish, hot showers, anything. but the patient ended up having a 95% reduction of symptoms after the 4 month mark, so maybe it would help with me?

i know this is reddit, but has anyone done this procedure or have any insight on it? does anyone know the risks of it? i’m probably going to contact the surgeon eventually and ask more specific stuff even though he’s in another country 💀 i’m desperate as hell
