i always see a lot of people talking about using drugs to get skinny (usually jokes) but from a recovering drug addict just lemme tell you, that shit FUCKING SUCKS and is NOT worth it.
how do normal ppl know when to stop eating? like before i developed my ed if someone offered me food i would totally take it and eat it even if i wasn’t hungry but some people just. don’t do that? they know when to stop and say no and they’re skinny without thinking about it?
