Bulimic? No Idea.

So yes, I think I am bulimic. I make myself throw up a lot, and am looking into buying Ipecac.

I just wanna be...very skinny.

Yes, I am a male.

But I am intimidated by all those...stick - thin guys I see in Hot Topic (popular store for teens/young adults) and places.

I am also intimidated by my brother's boyfriend - who is 21, 5'9, and weighs 87 pounds.

I just want to be very thin.

I mean, I know this will probably effect my chances of ever starting testosterone, and I am worried.

I don't know how many calories I get a day, probably a lot, but I just end up throwing it up once I finish eating.

Sometimes when I do this - I honestly do NOT know why - it takes away my thoughts of being female, which I love.

Being only sixteen, I'm scared about how this will effect my future as an adult.

I mean, I only want to be about 100 pounds or so...that's not that bad, right?

he's knocking on death's door with a bmi of like 12. that's extreme anorexia. nothing but bones. organs are going to fail...soon.

it's probably just the feeling of being "in control" of your body.... eating disorders have high rate of comorbidity with anxiety disorders (like OCD). Bulimia won't make you more masculine... being healthy & getting on testosterone will (even if it takes a few years for that to happen)

A lot of teens struggle with eating disorders around this age... I'm 22 and still have problems.. we really should *want* to be healthy, though. Check the BMI charts, know your body, talk to your doctor about wanting to lose weight, and avoid any thinspo crap online

Love,

Alison

I wanted to re-iterate, you may be jealous and envious of the rail thin guys, but they honestly have a fear of whether they will wake up the next morning when they go to sleep.

No exaggeration.

      No idea, so far as I know, if you visit using one of the spammers favourite VPN IPs, you shouldn’t be able to access the forums.

      @Adrianna DanielleI'm sorry I was raped too so I know the feeling.

      I hear you. My therapist moved to another job at the VA.  I liked her a lot and was very comfortable with her. Now I have an appointment with a new one, but not till June.  I asked for the first one to be in person.  I think I'll be able to see what she's like better that way.

      Hi Mealaini (what a beautiful name),   I applaud this attitude; I think that is such a healthy way to look at your situation. I have an ex-wife (who also has a beautiful Gaelic name) and we are such great friends now, having broken up, that we both agree our relationship has never been so healthy. She has found a man she loves; I don’t know if they will last indefinitely but I like him and he likes me and there are no hard feelings between any of us.  Anyway welcome, and thank you for sharing your story. I have been thinking of trying EMDR myself so it’s good to hear a success story.

      I was in the field artillery in the early 70's.  At times we had to hump ammo.  A projo weighed around 200lbs.  There were very few women, they seemed to be mostly in the medical roles.  I suppose if you were openly trans, you'd have been kicked out for being gay. But I suppose things are a lot different now.  There are more technical jobs for one thing.  One of my daughters was in the Air Force for a number of years.  Started as an "airman", and came out as a captain (nurse).

      Reading your post, I need to comment I have breast forms and sometimes get a chance to wear them to bed. But wearing my lingerie they always fall out so I wear a more full coverage bra to bed so they stay where they are meant to!

      That's horrible

      This would be a nice place to start by introducing myself to everyone, I already graduated from high school, and some college. I played the piano when I was younger, and I played in some bands. I used to take walks along the sandy beach, while collecting rocks and seashells along my way, I guess that would be the mermaid side of me.  I like fashion clothes shopping, and spending time with my close friends and family. I'm an online administrator from my own website in the community, and group facilitator in the lgbtqai+ community. It's nice to meet new friends here, and whatever help I can be I'm here for you.

      Very simple tonight. My wife and I devoured 1kg of honey & soy marinated chicken wings!

      Same here. Shaving my legs would be the natural next step for me, but my wife is also disapproving of it and I'm not really desperate enough to force the issue. What does give me hope is the thought that if I did shave them, my wife might actually like it, especially during times of intimacy, and she might then demand that I keep my legs clean shaven after that! I guess it's a bit of a fantasy. She has accepted that I will shave them one day just for an experiment, so we'll see what happens after that.   In the past, I've thought about what might appear to be selfishness too and came to the conclusion that I'm not. Rather, I'm non-committal, and I am that way because of my comparative lack of illness-inducing dysphoria. Nothing about me needs fixing, so there is nothing preventing me from continuing to have the best of both worlds either. It's apparent that we are dealing with a similar issue in different ways though. The main difference between us, I think, is that I am the simultaneous type of bi-gender (if indeed that's what I am), and I deal with it by presenting myself a bit androgynously, rather than either/or.   @Sally Stone, aspects of your story are eerily common to my journey. I can hardly wait for the next instalment!

      I had purchased an antivirus software with my credit card that comes with VPN protection, and I also get the same problem, but a little differently when certain web browsers, pop up message suggesting for me to turn it off? why am I paying for a service but only to turn it off?

      Well my wife's mind hasn't changed. As she shared an anti-trans post on facebook yesterday. I just hope she still ok with me.   Decided that starting in June I am going to do in-person appointments with my therapist. I don't have to, I just want to. If asked why at work. It is to work with both the out going and incoming therapist.   Strange how someone can become so much an important person in your life in such a short time.    Hugs, Kymmie
