fat people are allowed to be fat even if they don’t starve themselves or push themselves physically past their limits btw

one of my potential controversial mental health opinions is that harm reduction should be applied to restrictive eating disorders. obviously someone isn't 'recovered' for going from anorexic to over-exercising and rigid eating routines but it's better than like...literally dying. and the way recovery is currently pushed is a recipe for disaster. I don't know one person who actually recovered from an eating disorder after being forced into treatment.

Over half of British men show signs of body dysmorphia, a recent report found. Within the community of avid male gym-goers, a study published last year in the US found that all participants who immersed themselves in bodybuilding practices described themselves as having some degree of muscle dysmorphia. Men, however, are less likely to seek treatment than women – despite one in three eating disorders occurring in men, according to the National Eating Disorder Association, only one in 20 people in treatment are male, Vargas says. Meanwhile, in 2016, it was reported that less than one percent of all the body image and eating disorder research was conducted exclusively on males, leading some researchers to state that this is a “silent crisis” in men’s mental health. [...] Swami sees this intertwining of muscularity and masculinity as a relatively recent cultural change, beginning in the early 90s, when fashion and beauty industries realised the market power of targeting men, he says. Men began to be sold the idea that their bodies are non-biological commodities to be invested in, he says. And with the backdrop of evolving gender roles, Swami thinks muscle-building offers immediate agency over one’s virility: “It’s the one form of masculinity that feels like it’s malleable.” But for Oscar*, as a transgender man, this malleability was a lifeline: while on a two-year wait list for hormone therapy, he started weightlifting to connect with his masculinity.“I thought, well, if I build more muscle, I know I can look closer to how I feel in my head,” he says. But living within a culture that valorises the muscular physique can delay recovery, MD sufferers say. “A lot of your physical symptoms to the outward world are great,” says Mycock. As a result, self-destructive behaviours can be hidden in plain sight. “It’s hard to stomach the nuance of it because for so long, we’ve been told it’s good – and no matter what, it’s good,” he says. He adds: “Exercise should be treated more like medicine, in the sense, there’s always a list of side effects.”

Being fat, actually fat, with an eating disorder is fucking hell.

People assume you have BED, and if you actually do have BED people are so gross about it. If you have a restricting disorder people get concerned when you start eating more. People get concerned if you start to like yourself. People love to see you fucking miserable, and will completely ignore your misery in the same breath. It makes them feel good. They benefit at your expense through weight stigma.

So many physicians prescribe disordered eating to us. ED specialists in many places won’t even consider how EDs affect us. Our own community uses our bodies as inspiration to hurt themselves. Because nothing could be worse than looking like us, right? How are you supposed to love yourself when so many people actively don’t want you to?

To the fat person reading who needs to hear this, I give a shit if you recover. I give a shit that you are hurting. So many people don’t notice, so many don’t give a fuck, but I do. You deserve better. I want you to eat even if it means you gain weight. I want you to be happy in your body as it is. I want you to feel loved, I want you to feel seen.

If you are fat with BED, I see you. There is so much stigma and it is not your fault. Your weight isn’t “your fault”, you are sick. It’s not a moral failing. You deserve compassion, and the extent to which people project their own issues onto you is awful. You deserve to be comfortable in your skin, and your body is wonderful.

If you are fat with purging tendencies, or with restricting ones I see you too. We get praised for hurting ourselves, or no one notices. I see you. I’m sorry.

I wish so badly the world were more compassionate to you, but if no one else gives a shit, I do. Fight for recovery for me, even though I know that journey can be so, so lonely when you aren’t thin.

To those of you who have recovered, to those of you that may. You are worth it. You may be fat for the rest of your life, and that’s okay. It’s wonderful, your body is wonderful, and I see you and I’m proud of you. Sadly I know many of us recover alone, but I hope you know you aren’t. I’m rooting for you.

fat person: “i really hate how fat ppl are treated in our society, we are literally dying from medical fatphobia and are forced to loose weight before doctors will help you with an issue that has nothing to do with weight. they’d rather let us die than help us. eating disorders are rampant among fat people and we go without support and treatment because either no one believes us or they encourage restrictive eating disorders because they want us to loose weight. we get shamed for using fast fashion when there’s literally no ethical brands with affordable clothing in fat sizes. we are constantly told how unlovable, unattractive and worthless we are because of our weight. if ur not fat or have never been fat u will not understand.”

skinny ppl for no damn reason: “ok but consider this; someone told me to eat once and i find that oppressive.”

I'm actually begging thin people to make fat characters. You have so much power to normalize fatness by simply not making every one of your OCs thin (whether it's thin and dainty or thin and muscular).

More specifically, I want to see characters who are fat and are quick and quiet and have high dexterity. Characters who are large and burly and something other than a brute-force melee class. Make fat elves and nymphs and succubi, not just dwarves and orcs. Make fat characters with complex personalities. Don't have every fat woman 'make up for it' by having an extreme hourglass figure. Make fat characters who are desirable and loved.

But also, on a related note: please make characters who love to eat well, regardless of their size, and do not make it into a joke or a goofy trait. Make characters who go on long traveling quests and don't magically lose weight from all the walking, because not all bodies work like that. Make characters gain weight as a sign that they are physically or emotionally healing. Don't have every character refuse to eat as a tell when they are upset. Don't be afraid to have characters enjoy food. Please.

#this is obviously not an exhaustive list but. I am begging. This is so important to me #like if you tell me about your 7 different OCs and they're all skinny? You need to do some self-examining #fatphobia #fat positivity #fat liberation #ed tw #food tw #ttrpg #misc

answer under the cut, please don't spoil it for others tho!

"rebuilding" is fake! the others are all, incredibly, real. and most of them are crazier than i was able to fit in the poll answer box. :/

[serialunaliver]

it's crazy how different doctors approach you when you lose weight, like now when I go I unlocked the ability of "talking about many different aspects of your health". before it was just like, are you exercising enough? ok appointment over👍

and the real kicker is I didn't even lose weight by being healthy. in fact eating healthy and exercising was perhaps the most inefficient method. anyone who lost weight very quickly secretly knows this but it's easier to lie and accept praise--except there's two kinds of people seeing your weight loss transformation pics: the kind of person who sees you as inspiring, and the kind of person that notices how much your hair has thinned
