Thank you sm for talking about this! My period only just came back recently and I know that that’s amazing but the ED voice in my head is trying to twist it into something bad but I know that it’s much better to be happy and healthy than live up to these damaging expectations diet culture and my ED have made up. 💗
I really enjoyed your talk & insight, it felt like talking to a long lost friend. ^-^ I've had an ED since I was 18, I'm grazing 26 now, and my period has vanished once years ago, came back as I stagnated on a weight (still underweight, but not as bad as I used to be), but just recently for the second time, I lost my period again, since my health has declined again, despite some recovery, I'm back down health-wise again... So yeah, life makes me realise that nothing is a linear thing. You don't just recover, and it's all done and dusted, sadly... and it's harsh and mentally weakening to keep falling down after small successes... But videos like yours, your shorts, etc. makes it feel much less isolating and lonely. Though I wish none of us had to deal with any ED or other mental health issue, just knowing that there's others who keep going, helps me up from the slumps every once in a while, and it makes me love the internet just a little bit. ❤ Thanks for your video and the educated explanations. It grounded me and gave me a bit of hope that maybe one day I'll have my period back again. ^-^ Sending you (and anyone here for the same reasons as me) big hug. ❤
Sending huge hugs your way 🥺 I’m 26 and totally relate! Recovery is not linear, but just remember the direction is more important than the speed. I believe in you and I’m so glad to help ❤️
i don’t think you could ever make a video that i don’t find hugely helpful & beneficial to watch! you’re amazing Meg, thank you for everything you do😌I’m so proud of you too! xxx
Hello, I love your channel! Just yesterday I got my period back and despite my recent “pre-relapse” thoughts and tendencies- I was so happy and I started to cry. I ate three full meals yesterday and im going to try my best to continue to do so. I’ve been learning that I can’t rely on people to shove food in my face for me, I have to be the one to make the change. Anyways, thank you for the vid and I love your channel. It helps me feel so much less alone, since no one in my family seems to understand 💜
