NOTE: if your blog has a username/theme/content that includes the promotion or advertisement of ANY EATING DISORDER, you will be BLOCKED FROM THIS BLOG. I do not want anyone who makes or reblog posts that glamorizes eating disorders interacting with me. This isn’t me being a dick, this is me drawing boundaries for my own good.

work is slow and I kinda wanna have a meltdown so let’s do some girl mike wheeler headcanons to make me feel better:
- turns out that he wasn’t necessarily attracted to girls, but rather he wanted to be one, and it hits him while flipping through a fashion magazine and he realized he was feeling envy rather than attraction
- he used to watch his mom do her makeup all the time as a little little kid, to the point that it’s ingrained in his mind and he can do it on himself almost exactly like her
- he started growing out his hair in high school bc of eddie but as it got longer and longer he found himself enjoying how it made him more androgynous
- he eats so little and is called a “twig” in s4 bc he was concerned about how tall he was getting and how he was gaining more “masculine” muscle mass/weight placement so he wanted to slow that down (michael baby please eat)
- he’s snuck into nancy’s closet more than once. he most enjoys wearing her dresses and spinning to make the skirt twirl
- however, he doesn’t normally like wearing dresses. he prefers skirts (especially long ones) and blouses and turtlenecks. he does also like rompers on occasion
- the first person he told about maybe wanting to be a girl was el bc he figured she has the least amount of biases from existing basically outside of society for so long, and she’s just excited bc it means they can share makeup and clothes (where they can both fit into the same size lol)
- he likes words like “girl” and “sister” and “girlfriend” but he rarely likes being referred to as she/her. the only time he really likes it is when will says “she’s my boyfriend :)”
- he tries a few different “girl” names but usually just sticks with mike. michael is only for his mother and the government to use
- his favorite nail polish colors are royal blue, forest green, and black
- eventually he embraces his height and also wears heels, and gets a kick out of going out dressed extremely feminine and then intimidating the men by being 6’5”
- he doesn’t necessarily feel like a binary trans girl and is just having fun with language and presentation, but it still made him scared as hell to tell will, who ended up being super supportive anyway bc he thinks it’s super cute

Failed my social encounter today! 😭 brought up my past eating disorder without thinking during lunch and then couldn’t go to the restroom during it cause I didn’t want them to worry about me even tho that’s not part of how my ed was but the only way to explain that would’ve been to go more into depth about my ed while everyone was eating 😭😭😭 rolled a nat 1 on that, I’m just gonna hide out under some blankets till the heat death of the universe, it was nice knowing y’all 😭😭😭

today has been better :) i ordered origami star paper, my treatment friends have been so supportive, i called my extie bestie last night and had a hilarious time, and did not sh last night either. so proud of myself. oh and i completed 100% of breakfast so I got to go outside which was great. we're going to play board games today at downtime and watch more of glow up and twilight, and my therapist agreed to do a therapy session outside tomorrow. so lots of good things coming even though this week was just horrendous.

@incaensio sent: 𝐌𝐔𝐅𝐅𝐋𝐄𝐃 - katniss/haymitch (maybe post 74th games/pre coronation?)
have you ever seen a bird with a broken wing ? they either push through and force themselves to thrive or nature does its thing. survival of the fittest applies to nature and the arena. he can't tend to her wounds before setting her free, like one might do with a bird. he's unqualified ... and he's never gotten through his own trauma. but the baker's son had been carted elsewhere. ( the doctors are working tirelessly on his wounded leg. ) those working on katniss say her hearing will get back to one hundred, but it will take some time.
it seems like a smaller issue when the new victor has a glazed look in her eyes. fear ? frustration ? panic ? maybe it's all of the above, or none of it altogether. but the sound of a medical cart capsizing outside sends metal clanging suddenly and harshly. he knows that the density of the supplies are much less than weaponry built for a battalion, but who knows how much of katniss is present at the moment.
he approaches slowly, and tries to be as light-footed as possible. maybe another time she would roll her eyes, and comment on how he'd make for a terrible hunter. ( katniss would be right. ) scrawny arms a biproduct of depression, addiction, and disordered eating wrap around her. " it'll be okay. " his drawl is deep and his voice gets gravelly from the low volume. it's an empty promise mixed with his humorously, tragic ability to comfort, or lack thereof.

gossip gays gifset au series | blair x serena
Serena has to admit that for once in years, after a lifetime of knowing each other, Blair's managed to surprise her. Cat fights are one thing, the physical brutality of the lacrosse game earlier another, but Ostroff?
Serena glances away at the veiled mention of Blair's bulimia (the very reason why Serena would never expect Blair to go so low). A sudden strike of worry that Blair might have started purging again with all of this drama hits her with force, and she wonders why she hadn't worried sooner.
She's still angry, of course. Defensive. But as Blair softens she decides to listen at least.

Little Book Review: YA/Children's Literature Round-Up (May-December 2022)
Dear Mr. Henshaw by Beverly Cleary (1983): Leigh Botts keeps up a years-long correspondence with children's author Mr. Henshaw, which becomes an important outlet after his parents divorce and he has to move to a new town with his mother. This is the book that won Beverly Cleary the Newberry Award, and frankly it's like when Leonardo DiCaprio won Best Actor for The Revenant instead of The Wolf of Wall Street. Cleary was a legend, but she excelled most at lower-stakes childhood (and sometimes adolescent) drama, like being bad at cursive, not owning enough cashmere sweaters, or (at worst) worrying because your father lost his job. This is still a sweet, sensitive problem novel, yet I feel like Judy Blume or Betsy Byars would've pushed it to the next level.
The Snow Angel by Suzanne Weyn (1996): In the eighth volume of a middle-grade series about four girls who are friends with angels, rich girl Molly is devastated when her boyfriend dumps her for hippie-dippy Christina. She distances herself from her loved ones, almost relapses in her recovery from anorexia, and ignores the gigantic snow-angel-turned-tourist-trap on her other friend Ashley's horse farm. Luckily, her dad just brought a catatonic Irish boy into their house! Can Molly help herself by helping him? I bought this book for a dime because it looked completely ridiculous, and it delivered on that front. I really didn't like any of the girls except for Molly, and with her it was mostly just the sympathy I'd have for any troubled teenager.
The Five Little Peppers and How They Grew by Margaret Sidney (1881): In a small New England town, widowed Mrs. Pepper and her five kids (Ben, Polly, Joel, Davie, and Phronsie) must work hard to keep their spirits up in the face of grinding poverty, measles, and monkey-related shenanigans. I made several gos at reading this book as a child, but always lost steam after the Peppers made friends with the wealthy King family. Little Emily was right on the money, because this classic is just not very good, especially after the rich folks start helping out. It's beyond treacly and only a few of the episodic chapters have a good amount of tension. Polly's almost-going-blind-from-measles-and-eldest-daughter-syndrome arc is still great, though.
Afternoon of the Elves by Janet Taylor Lisle (1989): Sheltered fourth-grader Hillary forms an unlikely friendship with her neighbor, outcast sixth-grader Sara-Kate, after the older girl claims to have elves in her backyard. I had to read this book for school in fourth grade and I did not like it. I felt like it was trying to lure me in with something fun (magic, miniatures), only to never deliver and hit me with the actual sad topic (poverty and mental illness of a parent) instead. I stand by my elementary-school opinion. The good version of this novel is Daphne's Book by Mary Downing Hahn (if you want to read about an average girl befriending the class outcast before losing her to Social Services) or Lucie Babbidge's House by Sylvia Cassedy (if you want to read about a troubled girl getting lost in the arguably magical miniatures sauce).
Ten Cents a Dance by Christine Fletcher (2008): Working at a meatpacking plant to support her arthritic widowed mother and little sister in early-1940s Chicago, pretty, scrappy teenager Ruby Jelinski takes a chance and becomes a dime-a-dance girl at the recommendation of a handsome neighborhood hoodlum. I read this book at some point in high school and vaguely remembered liking it, but this time I was blown away. Fletcher packs a mind-bogging amount of character development and historical detail into a fast-paced story that ventures into some unexpected territory. It's maybe one of the best historical novels I've ever read.
Mitch and Amy by Beverly Cleary (1967): Nine-year-old twins Mitch and Amy don't always get along, but, if an outsider messes with one of them, he better be prepared for double trouble. Class bully Alan Hibbler learns this to his sorrow. This is the kind of cute slice-of-life story that was right in Cleary's wheelhouse, although it's not her most memorable. There are lots of sweet moments between the twins; for example, Amy gets Mitch an exciting book from the library when he's sick because she senses it'll help him with his reading struggles, and Mitch goes to bat for her when the dreaded Alan spits in her hair. I do think it would've been ideal if Mitch had also done something to help Amy with multiplication, for the symmetry. Also, I can't believe I missed the beginning-of-the-late-1960s California setting. These are some Joan Didion babies.
Cleopatra: Daughter of the Nile by Kristiana Gregory (1999): Her older sister wants to kill her, her father is a severe alcoholic, and she's stuck living in Rome with a bunch of gross old men who don't take her seriously, but teenage Cleopatra doesn't let that keep her from learning and adapting. This is one of the Royal Diaries I didn't read as a kid, and I really enjoyed the characterization of Cleopatra, who's resilient, clever, curious, and conflicted about her thorny family relationships.
(The Snow Angel, The Five Little Peppers and How They Grew, and Cleopatra: Daughter of the Nile were all first-time reads; the rest were rereads.)

The anxiety of having to go out to eat and eat in front of people you don’t know and meet up with people you don’t know and barely know

out loud acknowledgment and appreciation for human!connor actually, who grew up (was ‘raised’) in the circumstances he grew up in and set out to learn the things he needed to learn to be the person he is now. acknowledgement & appreciation for connor who took three runs at getting on top of an eating disorder which hospitalised him more than once and, on top of that, spent the first year and a half of college figuring out what he liked and what he wanted, other than the big things he could not ignore (Detective Detective Detective), and who taught himself to communicate through trial and error all through school even though the house he grew up in was always lonely. appreciation for connor who has worked on his socioemotional skills and his self-regulation deliberately and with intention because it is more truthful, gets to the point better, than not having those skills.
human!connor is the person that he is because of several individual decisions he made on his own, while very lonely, because he has always known or suspected which way was up. he loved amanda once upon a time And he is who he is because he has worked, deliberately, methodically, to be who he is, with or without her contribution. in any verse: connor is a very intentional sort of a man. he is where he is on purpose. he shows up in the ways he shows up, deliberately. there is no accident in being who he is, it is not something he ‘tripped into’, he chose it.
he chose it.

when i'm hungry and when i feel capable of eating literally never seem to happen at the same time. i even have my safe foods stocked rn and i'm so hungry i know it's about to become nausea but the idea of eating? also nauseating like i just don't want anything in my mouth rn. vs when i'm not even hungry but my brain is making me eat like the foods going somewhere. i hate it

There was this “stress painting” event being held on campus so I rsvp’ed for it cause I thought it was going to be a fun event where you paint with other students, y’know, a de-stressing event
It was motherfucking art therapy, I was the only student who showed up along with two instructors who ended up being homophobic, and I ended crying over my eating disorder because apparently art therapy fucking affects me !!!!
I just wanted to draw a goddamn cute squirrel
