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.
a gente tem que parar com essa de achar que todo “tempo de tela” é inerentemente ruim
assistir um filme, jogar com amigos, videochamada com a família, ler no kindle
nem todo tempo de tela é scrollar horas no tiktok
