Ive seen this a million times people dont get it bulimia isnt just throwing up its a cry for help wrapped in silence and shame

Ive worked with so many recovering from this and honestly the quietest support often means the most-showing up with warm tea and zero judgment changes everything. No lectures just presence.

I dont know why people keep enabling this behavior... If they really wanted to get better theyd just stop bingeing and purging. Its not that hard.

You think its that simple? Youve never been in the trenches have you?

My cousin went through this and the only thing that helped was when her sister started cooking with her-no talk just chopping onions and laughing at burnt toast 🥲

YES!! Small moments matter more than grand gestures. Hugging someone after they eat a meal without saying a word? That’s the magic. 🤝❤️

Ive sat with people who couldnt say a word for hours and just held their hand. Thats all they needed. No advice no fixes just someone there

Its fascinating how society reduces complex psychological trauma to simplistic moral failures. The cultural obsession with control over the body is a symptom not a solution

The phenomenology of disordered eating is a recursive epistemic loop where the self becomes both object and instrument of self-annihilation. The body is not a vessel-it’s a battlefield.

Based on empirical studies conducted across diverse cultural contexts including longitudinal data from the National Institute of Mental Health it is evident that familial support systems significantly enhance recovery outcomes when characterized by consistent emotional validation and absence of evaluative commentary

THEY ALL DO THIS TO GET ATTENTION. THE GOVERNMENT AND THE MEDIA PUSH THIS TO MAKE YOU FEEL GUILTY SO YOU BUY MORE DIET PRODUCTS AND THERAPY SESSIONS. THEY WANT YOU TO BE WEAK

I dont know why we keep making excuses for people who clearly lack willpower

This is what happens when you let people get away with being weak. In my country we dont coddle people like this

You all think youre helping but youre just feeding the cycle. If you really cared youd cut them off until they got it together

Ive studied this for 20 years. The real cause is 5G radiation and GMOs messing with serotonin levels. No one wants to talk about it because the pharmaceutical industry owns the FDA
