some ed symptoms i have even though im at a healthy weight that i dont see talked ab very much a thread for #edrtwt especially younger people

brittle nails my nails have always been quite brittle and ive just started talking vitamins that should help them, but its gotten soo much worse in my most recent relapse i pick at the skin around my nails a lot and i cant even do that because i can feel my nails bending back

@cigaretteofed i got my belly button pierced a week ago and im so nervous to see how it heals bc of my ed and restriction. i know it'll prob have slower healing but i hope to god it doesnt get like infected.

@cigaretteofed To add to this thread, some stuff ive had to deal with even after after recovering and at a healthy weight: arrythmia and tachycardia if youre ana and starving once your muscle starts going it starts going, same for the weaker bladder. Its really hard to recover these imo

@cigaretteofed the brittle nails are insane for my mind break off anyway and muscle cramps in my back linger for hours

@cigaretteofed My hair has been breaking of like crazy... and my migraines are insane, they feel like my brain is rotting from the inside, but I just can't recover. Everything I think about is my weight and my kcal intake

@cigaretteofed one I've also had even though im bmi 21-ish is passing out, and idek why 🥹

@cigaretteofed piercings not healing we is so real i had to take out my eyebrow piercings because they were mad asf 24/7

@cigaretteofed The body pain is so realllll like sometimes moving is the only thing they helps but also is so exhausting, but I def can never lay or sit comfortably cause I’m always uncomfortable and cramping

@cigaretteofed Pls stop i just got my bellybutton peirced im rebukimg this thread

@cigaretteofed just fyi, cramps and sleep issues can be related to low magnesium. these lessened dramatically when i was put on a magnesium supplement so that might be worth talking to your doctor about. 💜🐦

@cigaretteofed Diagnosed osfed. But I think they were trying for bulima but I didnt say much and labs were normal. But purging is newer technically for me. Honestly im surprised my labs and vital keep on being normal with the things im doing lol. I guess im lucky or its all fake

@cigaretteofed this isn’t off topic / but it kinda is, you should get your leg pain checked, i know you’re sick and it’s probably making it worse but sometimes it’s not just pain from ana and pain from an actual condition you might have.
