CW: subject: eating disorders
I have (at minimum) a couple eating disorders, one of them being ARFID, and for all my life these have been considered "personality flaws." Which, to put it mildly, absolutely did not help AT ALL.
If there is something I can't eat, it's not "being picky." It is "I start projectile vomiting across the room."
So when this happened, I was accused of doing it on purpose.
Autistic people often have trouble with food, and eating disorders are not uncommon. -
Back To Regular Programming
Photo: mineThis week has been a little weird, but not bad. My incisions from the scalp surgery are healing, and I'll get the stitches out in a few days. It's been pretty amazing how little pain I've had. I was skeptical of not getting pain meds, and being told to take Tylenol, but it's been fine. I haven't even taken Tylenol past the 2nd or 3rd day post-op. I slept a LOT the first few days, and waited to resume the THC for sleep for 4-5 nights, but definitely needed it to help me get back […]https://escapethechaos.blog/2026/07/04/back-to-regular-programming/

They wants to ban social media for kids. Because they lack courage.
> For ages, psychological addictions have led to both mental illness and social maladies. Gambling, binge eating/food addiction, compulsive body modification and tattoos, risk/thrillseeking, pornography, and chemical dependencies... the list goes on and on.

I Thought I'd Never See Her Again
https://youtube.com/shorts/aqu5yMR0xiU?si=H2jgdbYHi9K67blYSocial stigma stokes stubbornness.
And people die.
Reach out to your people, with love and empathy.
Too many people lack loving people in their corner, but it's only because we don't make ourselves known.
Also, mental health supports should be free, in #Medicare.

Shame – part 2
A week ago, I shared a post on dealing with shame. That shame was connected to having a clean home, keeping a clean house. This second shame post will be about dealing with my health, specifically: my relationship with food. I know how to properly make a few meals, I know I need to cook better meals, especially if I want to lose some of my obesity, and start to feel (and look) a bit better. I have done it before... So, I hope that I can do it again... But, to be able to buy healthier food, to prepare healthier food, to not crave the "easy food", I know I need more spoons... […] -

CW: Discussion about feelings around ED, food, keto, dieting, no real details
[comfort, support, solidarity, understanding would be welcome—advice not]
I'm having such a hard time.
A person in the house does keto to an incredibly disordered extent, obsessively counting calories for an extremely restricted intake.
I have a long history of a contentious relationship with food, stemming mostly from my mother decrying how fat I was as a child (I wasn't), and that we rarely actually had any food in the house (literally).
I'm finding it SO triggering to be around this person because pretty much the only thing they talk about is their diet.
My therapist and I spoke about it before I left. We have plans to start up EMDR therapy when I get back in March, to counter the trauma I hold around food... which is great, but also it's a long time until March.

CW: mental health
Banning under 16s from social media because "studies show social media causes xyz" is a perfect example of the mistake of individualizing social problems bleeding out from psychiatry to society at large
If social media makes people under 16 depressed have eating disorders or generally lose executive function or other effects like these its probably affecting a lot of people over 16 too.
I challenge you to think of anything we would lose in society by fixing this for everyone without blanket banning or surveillance

I have founded a group for abuse survivors (of past or present abuse) and those who question whether they were or are experiencing or witnessing abuse or coercive control or undue influence or someone is using power over them and retaliating against them when they don't "behave".
I myself survived childhood sexual abuse, incest, abuse by a cult, my therapist, psychiatry nurses, sibling, friends, queerplatonic partner/girlfriend, roommate and harrassment from a nazi neighbor plus landlords. I kinda got a bad start to life (in germany) and then people tended to make it worse instead of helping me or they took advantage of me.
So I learned a lot about what does and doesn't help!
And I want to help you out, whether you went through something you fear no one will believe or be able to stomach hearing about, or you think it was probably nothing and you overreact. You don't overreact! Nothing is too small to be worth talking about.
I'm making a space to have a warm, supportive, good vibes atmosphere that we co-create together. We'll help each other grow and see through confusions and distortions of the truth and gain more agency, to make choices, decisions and do stuff and have an impact on the world.
We'll also have fun and laugh and cry and eat cookies and discover what it's like to argue with someone who doesn't slice you to ribbons emotionally.
Anyone is welcome regardless of age, gender, ability, neurotype, location or background. I just ask that you help make the group a good space, be that by complaining when everyone else is too polite to say anything or by listening or by sharing. Please don't worry that by joining you'll take up too much space or take resources away from someone who might need them more — you ARE our space and our resources!
The first step is, once we have at least a handful of people, to decide when and how often to meet.
I use @delta delta chat for its privacy and because it works with spotty internet and very little tech knowledge. It works on desktop and mobile. You can download the app from google's or apple's appstore or FDroid or their website delta.chat (watch me not get the preview to work)
It was super easy to make an account and didn't require anything other than a username - no phone number or email address (or password).DM me for an invite, which is a link that you click to join the group. The group is invite only to keep out spam and abusers.
Please boost and share this post, including on other sites or however it works for you, or by talking about it and linking here.

CW: mh, eating disorder recovery, lies that enabled the disorder (that are part of activist scenes even for non-disordered eaters!)
lies like
"Self-restraint is a virtue/ indulgence is bad"
"less is more"
"if it doesn't hurt, it can't be effective"
"it is virtuous and morally good and important and effective to make personal sacrifices"
"this isn't a sacrifice, you LIKE it!" (when I don't allow myself to consider the alternative)
"this is extreme, but extreme is good because it is radical, it goes to the roots of the problem!" (ok, sometimes true, but not everything that's extreme is automatically effective or even radical!)
"this flies in the face of conventional wisdom because I am actually more informed than most people" (again, sometimes true but not automatically true)
"the problem isn't that this is too hard, it's that I'm stupid/not trying enough/ etc"
"you always have to try harder. just like. in general."
"pushing yourself is morally good and leads to growth rather than burnout"
"you don't deserve to have your needs and desires met"
"this isn't a need, it's a want, it's selfish"
"others have it worse so quit complaining"
"resting is wasting time"
"having fun is selfish when others are suffering"
"there is so much to do, no time for rest/fun!"
...and so on. Until you genuinely can't tell what you want and need. Because society and especially abusers (insofar as there's a difference) beat that ability out of us starting in infancy.
And these beliefs are so common in activist scenes and spaces and are what motivates many people to do activism. It's not "just" the stuff eating disorders are made out of, it's also the water most people swim in in general. Obviously you get versions of these beliefs in religions and conservative circles too....
There's nothing more radical than listening to your body's needs and allowing them unconditionally. Fuck the concepts of laziness, greed and undeservedness!

Meine Tochter ist gerade ein paar Besorgungen für mich machen.
Hab ihr vorhin noch geschrieben, sie möchte mir noch eine Tafel Milka mitbringen.
Macht sie nicht. Wenn ich sowas will, soll ich es mir selbst holen.
Mein binge-gesteuertes Hirn ist mega sauer. Mein wahres Ich ist ihr sehr dankbar :herz:
