° ↳ hii, my name is jonah! : ༄ ➵ i post chill vlogs + updates on my anorexia recovery or just fun things! ˒ 🌱 ៸៸ this can vary from baking, editing, studying, chilling, photography + many more!
I also feel out of place for having anorexia since I've always been very skinny and have a very fast metabolism. I did not restrict as much compared to others but I just looked "sicker" than them (I hate saying that, but that's what my treatment team tells me). I need a lot of help mentally since my disorder did not stem from weight issues, but because of the way I look, therapists are overly concerned about my physical state. I've been inpatient four times and when getting discharged, I get so excited to start on the therapeutic recovery part, only to be let down because therapists see me as too physically sick, even when I'm weight restored. I wish there was more representation for those struggling with eating disorders that do not have to do with weight/body image issues, but more as a byproduct of other struggles like depression or loneliness.
This is so brave, Ed rep in men and boys is so under represented, as a girl who overcame my ed I know so many guys feel embarrassed by it or like feel “un-man”, but for anyone reading this that’s absolutely not true at all and if a girl ever treats you like that then she’s not worth your time, and it’s not too late to recover you can do it like I did too 💕💗🫂
When you talked about knowing the calories for a pop tart I felt that I have calorie aspergers for everything - thank you so much for being so vulnerable with us
I love your “approach “ (damn no idea how else to say it) to recovery, like you’re not just romanticising it. I really relate to your experience and I guess seeing someone with a similar issue dealing with it is making my recovery journey easier (even if I’m at the beginning of it). So yeah thanks and I’m proud of your progress
i tried to keep it as real as possible on this channel, and i have from the start, it's just easier for people to relate to you that way. i wish you the best on your journey! <3
Hello I am a teenage boy who has anorexia. I am now on my way to recovery which has been hard. I just really wanted to control my life and the only option that I could think of was losing weight. Now I make sure to eat breakfast everyday and honor my cravings. Thank you for talking about male anorexia. I think it is not really noticed in society as much as it should be.
@@selma7452 Sorry about typing my weight. I know how triggering it can be to people. I just wanted people to know how serious anorexia can be and how I would have died if I wasn't closely monitored because I was at such a low weight. (I took the numbers of the weight off the comment). Just remember you have no reason to fear this disease. It latches on to you and controls you like a puppet. It sounds crazy! But it actually does! Now I am no longer afraid of my eating disorder. I hope everyone with anorexia can eventually overcome their anorexia and accept and love themselves.
Don't worry the end wasn't cringe at all I got emotional aswell and cried for you.😭 I just want to let you know I am always here for you and will supports your journey.
Crosley not the kind of good record player, you got to have a audio technica record player, that’s sound better. And not ruin your records like Crosley.!
Watching this made me feel so much more valid, my ed also hadn’t been about my weight but more just avoiding food and then developed into fear of weight gain
JONAHH HOW R U SO UNDERRATED? I LOVE UR CONTENT BESTIE! As a guy who also suffered from an0rexia, you make me feel not alone! U DESERVE MORE FAME BESTIE. 💗
@@jonahhab I’m a girl and my eating disorder is a bit different but I find other things we have in common, I’m glad he helps you, Alice is amazing for making boy ed representation
i wouldn't say extreme hunger per say. for me, i suffered from not being hungry which was hard in the sense that i didn't want to eat food cuz i was so full but i had to stick to the meal plan 😭
