I WILL DO ANYTHING (OCD, Orthorexia, BED) NSFW

I am so unbelievably lost, ashamed, and hopeless. My mind was once consumed by each nutritional detail of what I ate, and evolved to focus on each meal looking/tasting perfect. My severe orthorexia (weighing/tracking food for hours, malnourished, and underweight), turned into an extreme binge eating disorder. I went from still being slightly underweight, to having a noticeably healthier appearance, to the heaviest i’ve ever been (beyond what’s needed), just in the past few months. I am binging nearly every day, then numbing it by BARELY sleeping, desperately reaching out to anyone I can, and falling back into doomscrolling. I’m experiencing crying spells, outbursts, and even destructive behavior. I spent so long tightly would in compulsions that I have no impulse control left. I feel so uncomfortable and entirely disconnected from my body, nothing fits, and I can’t even bring myself to leave the house. My only identity was the body I built working out and it’s just gone. I’m too depressed to do anything but eat myself into sickness, scroll, and fantasize about another life. I feel like no matter what, my OCD will always control me, and the food noise will never stop. I’ve started therapy, and tried to pray, but I can’t take this awful coping mechanism for another day! PLEASE HELP!!ANYTHING!!

Repost (in hopes of more responses)

Hi! I’m looking for silk pillowcases and something weighted without the standard “quilted” look… this could be a new blanket large enough to act as a comforter, a light summer duvet with a weighted throw, an actual comforter, etc. Idk if I need to purchase all new sheets bc i’m only interested in the hair/skin benefits (but still want them to coordinate lol)?? Also, i’m really struggling to find anything TRULY weighted that’s aesthetically pleasing… please help! Ty!

Design my Bedroom (Shown W/ Inspo)

I would like help adding some character to my room, potentially rearranging/replacing furniture, and finding specific items. I currently use the blanket shown as a makeshift comforter, but prefer to sleep with a weighted blanket. Unfortunately, most weighted blankets are small and have a “quilted” design. I want bedding that incorporates silk pillowcases… and either sheets to top with a cuter weighted blanket (large enough to cover bed), an actual weighted comforter, or a lightweight comforter topped with a weighted throw (worried this will be too heavy for summer). I would also like to find a plant for my empty pot, mood lighting, & decor for awkward, empty spots! I like my current color scheme, but want a little more life in my space and love anything floral! Ty!

Severe Hair Loss & Frizz

Ignore the shitty editing job… just concealing myself out of sheer embarrassment. I’ve experienced severe hair loss after a period of struggling with food, high stress, and quitting birth control (before to the right). I’ve considered minoxidil, but don’t want the extra initial shedding…

Additionally, my hair feels impossible to style (slide 3). It has always been stubborn (requiring finger curling, diffusing, etc.), but it suddenly won’t even curl. Making it appear socially acceptable is consuming more and more time… i’ve resorted to pulling it back everyday and filling in my scalp. I already sleep with a bonnet (tightens for rough sleepers), but it almost always falls off and I end up with an undefined mess either way.

I’m truly at a loss for what to do and any advice is appreciated!!
