@gun__luvr didn't want to associate with you by a like but apparently going all the way to ur strawpage and writing out a long-winded submission is somehow not worse according to their logic
@verdantwyrm as someone in shedtwt get rlly icky when see anyone younger than 20. even 18 or 19 feels too impressionable to be here. it only rlly works as a comfort when you already have that disorder and bad coping methods, don't intend to recover & want a community in a similar boat.
I have a theory that her obsession with looking as tiny as possible is also tied to wanting to be infantilized and may be a somatic trauma response lol.
The fake baby voice, the oversized sweaters, the high school ponytail, acting like a shy little kid all the time, along with her constant need to ruin relationships, it feels like she might have had massive daddy issues growing up.
Maybe her dad walked out, or maybe there was a divorce, or something else happened, and her brain is basically stuck in this weird regressed child state because it feels safest there. Restricting her food probably also gives her a sense of control that she felt she lacked growing up because a lot of the time, EDs are about control.
It feels like she’s subconsciously recreating the trauma and separation loop because she witnessed it growing up and it feels comforting and familiar to her, it’s basically her brain somatizing the trauma. She targets taken men so she can orchestrate the separation herself and regain the control she didn’t have when her dad left.
But I could be wrong. I’m not even sure her dad left, but a lot of the stuff with Ariana just makes sense to me if that were the case lol.
people talk about ao3 like it’s some kind of dark web csa/csem trafficking ring just to continue going on the site, engage with the content and encourage others to also. like huh
