☆ ED hygiene and general health ☆ Hola! Here’s a lil’ post on ED hygiene and health post because if you can’t recover you can at least be hygienically healthy and not become extremely unhealthily ill with other reasons to be hospitalized! ♡ bbys with anorexia! ♡ believe it or not, we have hygiene issues but obviously awful health issues too, here’s how we can prevent them and b healthy skinni queeeeeenz! ♡ dehydration ♡ people with anorexia can become dehydrated really bad because food contains water and some times people become to afraid to even drink water due to the illusion of “water makes you fat” or “water has calories” which, by the way, if you believe this you’re in a severe stage of anorexia and you need to recover or you will die! but anyways, drink a lot of water! i suggest 6 to 10 bottles with 16.9 ounces of water a day, this can also help with weight loss and honestly water tastes great, you can also eat ice (tastes even better!!!!!) to get your hydration up also you can drink sodas like coke 0, diet coke, and ICE (it’s a drink with 0 calories, btw they were forced to put 5 on the bottle and it’s actually 0) and they all taste amazing! ♡ headaches ♡ if you restrict to extreme numbers, such as 500 and under, you have most likely experiences a HELL RAISING headache. it really, really sucks and it’s because you have super high dopamine levels and super low sodium, to raise these levels i suggest eating an avocado (unless they have too many calories or you hate them) and a little salt like a finger tip or something or mineral water, which btw has 0 calories! ♡ dizziness ♡ E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E and i’m literally not kidding, EVERYONE who starves themselves are going to get dizzy. Let me tell you, it’s every single time i get up -_- so here’s how to stop being super dizzy! * drink hella water * try to reduce your stress by doing something calming wether it’s yoga, watching your favorite tv show, listening to relaxing music or drawing, relax. * get a bunch of sleep, sleep burns a lot of calories by the way! * drink caffeine, it raises your blood pressure! ♡ fatigue ♡ yes, people with anorexia feel super lazy and sluggy too, which can suck if you’re a compulsive exerciser. well to let you know, exercise has helped me stop being so fatigued! i like to do chloe ting workouts and other workouts with amazing instructors who make it fun and talk to you during the workout! try doing workout challenges like abs, legs or full body because this can help you lose weight and also feel amazing! ♡ osteoporosis ♡ “i HaVe OsTeOpOroSis” ok but like really, this is horrible, i was born with fast bone maturing (idk what its called lol but i have it???) which made my bones like those of a 18 year old in a 13 year olds body, but anyways osteoporosis is awful, here are some things you can do to prevent it; * drink milk (non-fat: 83 calories per cup) * eat fruits and vegetables like spinach, oranges, peppers, pineapple and others, i would look for ideas on nof.org * try to get calcium and vitamin D, foods like almonds, yogurt, salmon, and eggs are safe like a lot of foods with these! * try to stop smoking and drinking although i know this is how a lot of us get calories * get a lot of sleep ♡ lanugo ♡ i’m not sure if you’ve heard of this but lanugo is when you get so cold your body decides to grow access hair, there is literally no way to prevent this if you have an ED so just be ready, but a lot of people want to shave it but DONT!!!! if you shave it you’ll be cold, if you want to, hide it. ♡ preventing thin nails and hair ♡ we all know that so so soooooo many people with anorexia have hair loss or brittle nails and i would prefer to keep my hair and nails thanks, here’s how i do it; * take biotin and hair vitamins * do a deep condition every once in a while * stay hydrated (this is literally a thing for all of them!) * eggs, almonds and avocados are good for these!

They usually played together in groups of two or three, I was covered in glitter, I smelled like birthday cake.

THE BARE BASICS

1. CLEANSING

This step can literally make or break your routine tbh, if you get a cleanser that’s too drying, it will cause major damage to your skin. Your skin has a pH of 4.5-5.5 and most of the popular cleansers recommended on skincare threads you might see on say twitter etc such as Castile soap is actually too alkalic for your skin! It strips your skin of moisture and leaves it super dry. I know most of y'all love that squeaky clean feeling these kind of cleansers give your skin but that’s not necessarily the case. (side note: if you use makeup I’d highly recommend double cleansing where you remove your makeup with an oil based cleanser followed by washing your face with a water based cleanser)

Some good oil based cleansers ;

Neutrogena ultra light cleansing oil

Tatcha one step Camellia cleansing oil

Banila Co clean it zero

Heimish all clean balm

The Face Shop rice water bright rich cleansing oil

DHC deep cleansing oil

Low pH water based cleansers;

Cosrx low pH good morning gel cleanser

SebaMed clear face foaming cleanser

CeraVe foaming facial cleanser

Su:m37 miracle rose cleansing stick

Cleaning waters (optional, can be used to remove residue of dirt and debris after cleansing and also as a quick cleanse if you’re in a rush) ;

Bioderma hydrabio H2O micelle solution

Thayers witch hazel (alcohol free version )

Caudalie micellar cleansing water

Garnier skin micellar cleansing water

2. MOISTURIZING

Moisturizing is a crucial step in skincare (yes, even for oily skin!) to help keep your your skin youthful and it hold water in the outermost layer of your skin to act as a barrier. It protects your skin and helps improve texture. Studies have shown that people who moisturize their skin accumulate wrinkles at just a fraction of the rate of their dry skin counterparts.

3. SUNSCREEN

Do I really need to explain why this is super important? If you’re not wearing sunscreen, especially if you’re outdoors (side note: please reapply every two hours), you’re more prone to forming age spots, wrinkles, blemishes and we’ll ask hyperpigmentation meaning this can also cause any acne scarring etc you might have to get darker, making it harder to get rid of.

THAT’S ALL FOR THIS POST! I’LL BE MAKING ANOTHER SEPARATE POST ON TOPICAL SUPPLEMENTS FOR INDIVIDUAL SKIN NEEDS. HOPE Y'ALL LEARN A THING OR TWO FROM THIS POST AND FEEL FREE TO SEND ME AN ASK IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ♡

(side note: as a POC myself, I am aware of the whitecast most sunscreens leave but I couldn’t reccomend many that don’t since I have yet to properly research good products in that category. I will do my homework on this and make a separate post on that for you guys)

we should uhhhh normalize non binary people or anyone under the nb umbrella choosing to use the trans flag to represent them instead of the non binary one or any other flag. the trans flag is for all of us, we are the white stripe and tbh ive gotten weird looks from people for calling myself trans and using the flag instead of the nb one. why! its ours too god dammit! we are still trans and we can use whatever god damn flag we feel like using
