A few ground rules I'm setting for myself:
* No food diaries / "what I ate today" kind of posts.
* No exercise or movement posts of any kind.
* No photos of myself or body comparisons.
* No food advice ("eat this not that").
Just to start with.

I think I internalized Tabitha Farrar’s philosophy of recovering from anorexia too much early on. I’m even more critical of her now than I was at the beginning

I should be given a stipend for tattoos specifically. A solid $1000/mo should be enough I think

I feel a little funny liveblogging the progressive development of my philosophical viewpoint
Following the logic: The Divine spark in each of us is imperfection. Our inability to embody perfection means we are able to destabilize anything. There are no binds strong enough to overcome our innate freedom.
In certain theological accounts, the primordial act of the Divine is to let go of control. The paradox: the Divine perfectly controls, the first Divine act is to not. Because of this, it’s easy to think control is godliness. But theosis demands imitating that act, letting go of control.

Hard therapy appt today. One big theme was that relapse happens. I really don’t want to accept that. Feel like I’m failing everyone when I’m not trudging forward.

sometimes I get flashbanged by images of aspirational thin bodies in pop culture and have to remind myself, no, looking like a draugr from skyrim is not a healthy goal

Anorexia lies. It will never make you safer or happier, not in any way that matters. Fuck it

Seeing the way some disordered ppl give in to the ED voice really makes the Evil Deity Worshippers in fiction make more sense to me

It’s a little weird to me how many people I know who made bluesky accounts when it first took off and then immediately abandoned the accounts. Incl. two ministers.

I think my new prescription, mirtazapine, is making me groggy during the day. Fortunately, it has a paradoxical effect where higher doses have less of that side effect. So I’ll probably try to go up a dose level.
