How do you fix being anorexic/under weight/eating disorders?

Anonymous 21336

You need to turn yourself into a gym girlie and deal with your issues that have caused this

I went all-in. It was really hard mentally but helped me create a healthy relationship with food. I'm back at a normal weight and eat "normally" but I still count calories.

Not sure if the other nona was being genuine but a lot of fitness influencers started as a way to combat eating disorders.

Anyone else feel like they can't compete with these young, filtered, IG models? It feels like Instagram makes body images worse, especially for young women

>It feels like Instagram makes body images worse, especially for young women
The opposite for me. I used to have cripplingly low self-esteem until I entered a phase of following IG models and listening to kpop. Seeing how hard they all tried to be beautiful made me start pitying them instead of envying them or wanting them. Now I feel superior to them simply because I don't participate in or care about their sick game. You can free yourself too, anon.

Why do you need to compete?
I stopped using Instagram/almost all social media (LinkedIn for work is the exception) years ago, and I've never been happier. I get all my fashion inspiration from older Japamese mooks, and it's refreshing to see less heavily-edited women enjoying fun clothes.
Why would you even want to attention of someone that finds AI-tier instagram models attractive?

you're the fucking retard. Literally everybody drank unpasteurized milk before 1947. The only thing it does is give milk a longer shelf life and it was only made law was in order to push small dairy farms out of the industry who couldn't afford the pasteurization equipment.
Are you going to pasteurize your breast milk before giving it to your baby??

Flat boobs are so adorable and sweet and feminine. Most cute fashionable south-east asian girls on instagram are super flat and they wear clothes that look good and cute on them, that would look weird on anyone with over a B cup. Maybe take some inspiration from them? (Like thailand and vietnamese girls) (I'm a lesbian) (btw)

Why are there so many women with unbelievable fake lashes that are like the size of orange slices, are people meant to believe that those /aren’t/ just glued on with Chinese chemical goop?

Women actually tend to have shorter/thinner eyebrows than men, normally. We wear makeup like mascara, or wear fake eyelashes to extend them and make them more prominent.

I plan on buying castor oil toregularly on my lashes and eyebrows as soon as I get my salary.hehehe cannot wait…it will take 3-6 months but better than eyelash serums ( to me )

I'll never forget when I was in my 20s and out drinking with a mixed group of men and women. At the time I wore verrry heavy makeup. A guy said he like natural/minimal makeup "like mine." When askedcwhat he thought I had on he was like "uhhh mascara and lipstick?"

Water Water Everywhere But None To Drink Anonymous 21306[Reply]

So I finally calculated that I need 3L of water every day to stay hydrated properly but it is such a task actually. I have been only able to do 2.5 everyday. On days I'm less stressed drinking 3L is easy peasy but on strewsful days even drinking 2L feels like a task. How am I supposed to be a proper adult if I cannot even manage this. Hopefully summer will make it easy.

Staying hydrated properly is a joke. Keep a bottle next to you and sip only when you feel thirsty. That's all you need.

Also keep in mind the color of your urine. If it looks like pure water you're drinking too much, dirty yellow you're drinking too little. The ideal is a light yellow.

Dandruff is included but more so controlling oil and hydration levels. For example, if you have a dry scalp you might need to use gentle shampoos and exfoliate the dead skin cells every so often. Just go down the Haircare rabbit hole and experiment.

Anonymous 21058

before you shampoo, add hair growth oil and a mask on your scalp for an hour.

Anonymous 21296

i've been growing mine out too. others mentioned silk pillowcases you can also get a silk bonnet to sleep in at night. make sure you drink enough water throughout the day. i take hair skin and nails supplements (it's basically just like a biotin and collagen multivitamin) but it might just be placebo lol.

i only wash my hair 3 times a week and use a scalp oil and leave in conditioner. dont be afraid to use products with silicone or glycerin in them. some of the "natural ingredient" hair products i've tried just dry my hair out, especially in the winter months.

careful with heat styling, i only dry my hair with a diffuser on low heat once it's about 50% air dried and still use a heat protector spray.

i have thick straight asian hair so ymmv depending on your hairs texture.

Anonymous 21298

NTA but I also have straight thick asian hair. What products do you use? Interested in your hair routine.

I use lush natural shampoo and conditioner bars, have leave in conditioner, and Argan hair oil for my ends. I take an hour every weekend to cut my split ends (not a general trim but literally find individual split ends and snip them). I’ve been thinking about getting that Conair exfoliating scalp wet brush to scrape away any dandruff or buildup on my scalp in the shower, but I’m afraid it’ll damage my hair because it’s easiest damaged when wet. I got an oily scalp and sometimes when I wash my hair on high temperature setting, I get dandruff for a day or two. So I was thinking of getting the conair brush to mitigate that.

I wear my hair in Dutch braids or fishtail braids. Fishtail isn’t as protective. When you unwind the hair strands, they get stuck together and you peel them away from each other. I imagine split ends get splittier this way so I stopped doing it. My hair is waist length right now and am waiting for it to grow to hip length.

wow your hair is much longer than mine! mine is about halfway down my back.

my shampoo and conditioner i don't use anything fancy: head & shoulders "clinical strength dry scalp rescue" for shampoo and the dove damage therapy intensive repair conditioner.
once a week or so i use the dove's "10 in 1 serum mask" with hyaluronic acid.

the head & shoulders pretty much got rid of my dandruff, and i just gently scrub it into my scalp with one of those silicone scalp brushes when i wash. i don't notice any real breakage when i do this.

as for leave in products i use a generic dupe of the aveda "scalp revitalizer", it's a 10 "miracle leave in", and then garnier fructis "sleek & shine anti-frizz serum"

if i decide to heat style (or dry my hair with a hair dryer) i use the beyond the zone "turn up the heat protection spray" but i try to air dry my hair as much as possible.

i just use silk pillow cases and tie my hair in a low and loose ponytail at night. i'm growing out a super layered wolf cut so there are too many irregular sized pieces to properly braid it.

Reusable sanitary products 8531[Reply]

Does anyone here have any experience with reusable sanitary towels? I've usually always used the Always brand but I've recently found out how toxic their products are. I'd like to get into the reusable ones but I don't know how effective they are and how comfortable.

I use reusable pads and find them much more comfortable and longer lasting than disposable ones. Less leaky, too and no weird smell. I got them for cheap on amazon.

TSS is more for things that are internal. Mostly, tampons, because they soak up all the blood and bacteria, and if they're in there for a long ass time, they can get pretty nasty.
Some people keep tampons in there for like 12 hours, which is a big risk for TSS. TSS is basically a bacterial infection. A pad won't really cause that since it's external.
I think even most menstrual cups have less risk of TSS than a tampon since all the ones Ive seen are made of medical grade silicone and have less chance to breed bacteria compared to a super-absorbent tampon.

Anonymous 10481

Literally just don't sleep in tampons and you'll be fine. Mine start to feel sore after hours of being in, so I have to remove them anyway. I can't even imagine leaving it in there long enough to incur TSS. I'm guessing some women just don't feel it? Also, make sure not to completely rely on tampons and wear a pad to let it air out a bit after removing a tampon.

Anonymous 15092

I use some made from bamboo cotton, and while they're very comfy and absorbent I haven't switched to them for my main menstrual use, only for sleeping and for discharge I get before/after a period. My first issue is: because the poppers can only hold it on loosely and even pads with two popper options can't always stay put without rolling sideways or slipping up and down I don't trust it to keep blood from going on my thighs and trousers. I've had them slip when heavy discharge was coming out and I ended up with a big wet patch above where the pad had been sitting, and thank god it wasn't bloody.

Second issue: I don't bleed when lying down but that means when I get up there's a fucking tsunami of blood and clots I have to rush to the toilet to get rid of. I've noticed when it does hit the pad all the clots and, for lack of better words, stringy red goopy shit in the blood sits on the surface without going in. I'm honestly amazed how the material has never soaked through to the other side when with disposable pads I'm frequently only saved by the plasticy adhesive backing being waterproof, which suggests it really does absorb a lot. But why the fuck does so much sit on the surface like chunks and silly string? It's unpleasant to feel and rinsing it off in the sink is nasty too. Is that just something with bamboo cotton? Do they all have this problem?

Third issue: the side you bleed on is dark gray so I don't have any problems with blood stains, however there are occasionally lightish stains that can survive a few washes and handscrubbings before going away. It's embarrassing because I can't tell if this is from the discharge I can't help, or some moment where I happened to be talking lewd and might have leaked other fluids. I don't know. Never had a problem with those staining anything in the past so this is news to me. Could just be that the pads are getting worn and the rougher surface holds stains more easily? I have no idea but I'm glad the neighbors don't use binoculars to eye my laundry.

What I'm most curious about is whether there's a brand that's particularly secure and doesn't slip, and whether "period pants" are basically the same thing. The latter are way more expensive than buying reuseable pads, and the thought of changing your whole underwear every 4-8hrs to stay fresh seems pretty inconvenient, so I've never tried it.
