Looking for someone who can keep me accountable to not eat.

[thinnnxr-deactivated20180131]

I have this crazy idea that I can get to my goal weight by starving and then once I’m there I can eat healthy and maintain. I know it’s messed up but in my mind it makes sense.

My exact mindset

False rape accusations are an anomaly.

True rape accusations are a norm.

You’re, quite literally, more likely to be killed by a comet than falsely accused of rape.

“Because 1 in 33 men will be raped in his lifetime, men are 82,000x more likely to be raped than falsely accused of rape. It seems many of us would do well to pay more attention to how rape culture affects us all than be paranoid about false accusers.”

Privileged folk ridiculing safe spaces is so funny as if men don’t refuse to enter “girly” stores and have “man caves”, as if white people don’t avoid black neighbourhoods, as if straight people don’t ostracise gay people from their social circles, like who’s really the one with the safe spaces lol

[saitoblush]

that’s the thing about power dynamics. Your boss has no problem entering your work space randomly, while you can’t enter his office as freely. Same mechanic is happening here, only that when you refuse to let your boss (privileged people) enter your space (safe space), they feel offended because they think they’re entitled to entering your space all the time.

What you realize 6 yrs after high school

- Being a nerd pays off, literally. I see the "popular kids" I graduated with on Facebook, working in retail or at restaurants while I have a professional career and degree. - Just because the cute guys in high school ignored you and rejected your invites to school dances doesn't mean you'll never find someone who loves you wholly and, even better, someone who is CUTER than those losers. - Many of those pretty girls who bullied you and acted like they ruled the world in high school will end up gaining weight to an unrecognizable degree, have kids with multiple partners, or will become a trophy wife to her high school bf, who has also gained weight, is balding, and working some blue collar job in your old town. - Your depression becomes a lot easier to deal with and almost nonexistent some days once you begin meeting other adults who are decent human beings and don't have to live with your parents. If you're in high school right now and having a miserable time, just know that it REALLY does get better and all the people who seem happier and to have more fun and fulfilling lives may not be going in the right direction, and you are probably doing what is right for you and leading you to where you are meant to be.

That episode of New Girl where Jess has painfully high expectations for celebrating her birthday... It makes me realize that I am painfully like Jess.

My bf is out of town for Valentine’s Day. I told him I was wanting pizza, and he told me he’d order. Two hours go by with no pizza, and I learn that he was joking. I spent the first hour of this time thinking how sweet it was that he would go through the trouble to buy me pizza... I shouldn’t have expectations.

For Valentine's Day

I decided to make my bf a jar with 100 things I love about him. However, I'm having a hard time listing 100 things (currently at 57). He's amazing, so Idk. Should I be concerned about my relationship?

[shesgotwhatittakes]

While cleaning out my room I found a paper that my therapist gave me some time ago to deal with obsessive and intrusive thoughts. Sorry the paper is a little crinkled and stained, but I figured I’d post it in hopes that it will help someone like it helped me.

[shesgotwhatittakes]

Here it is again with text for anyone who can’t see the picture

That thought isn’t helpful right now.

Now is not the time to think about it. I can think about it later.

This is irrational. I’m going to let it go.

I won’t argue with an irrational thought.

This is not an emergency. I can slow down and think clearly about what I need.

This feels threatening and urgent, but it really isn’t.

I don’t have to be perfect to be OK.

I don’t have to figure out this question. The best thing to do is just drop it.

It’s OK to make mistakes.

I already know from my past experiences that these fears are irrational.

I have to take risks in order to be free. I’m willing to take this risk.

It’s OK that I just had that thought/image, and it doesn’t mean anything. I don’t have to pay attention to it.

I’m ready to move on now.

I can handle being wrong.

I don’t have to suffer like this. I deserve to feel comfortable.

That’s not my responsibility.

That’s not my problem.

I’ve done the best I can.

It’s good practice to let go of this worry. I want to practice.
