KierWhen I was younger, after eating a meal, I'd always feel the urge to go on a walk, I'd feel so energetic. All the adults called me weird while groaning about how full they were and how they couldn't wait to sit down or take a nap. Turns out I wasn't weird, and the sudden energy was just my body providing for me, rewarding me for eating. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/edrecovery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#edrecovery</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/eatingdisorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eatingdisorder</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nutrition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nutrition</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#health</a>

Tombe la pluie - TheespookjeSomething already triggering enough as someone recovering from an eating disorder is that I have to keep an eye on what I'm eating because Methadone gives me the munchies and a sweet tooth all day long... But on top of that, my mum who is dieting and denied to my face I had an Ed (despite worrying about my low weight) is commenting on everything I eat or don't or how fast I do it 😔 <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/eatingdisorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eatingdisorder</a> <a href="https://ohai.social/tags/addictionrecovery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#addictionrecovery</a>

J. R. DePriest :verified_trans: :donor: :Moopsy: :EA DATA. SF:Sensational headlineWeight Loss Medication Changed my Life - Now I Can't Afford ItI've been prediabetic for a few years. I've been clinically obese for 20 years at least.I'd been taking Metformin and it was helping, but not enough. I was supposed to change my diet, but I could never seem to pull that off.I wasn't eligible to be prescribed Ozempic or Mounjaro because those are specifically for Type II diabetes. So I'd have to develop the full thing before I can get the meds.I was just slowly getting fatter.But some of these newer meds based on the same science are not "just" for full-blown diabetes and my insurance would cover some of them!I was put on Wegovy in March and I expected my out-of-pocket to be around $100 a month. Instead, insurance got it down to $25 a month.I hated it. I hated what Wegovy did to me. It made food taste bad. It made brought back food sensory issues I hadn't dealt with since I was a kid / teenager. Like textures and mouth feel and the smells. It made me not enjoy eating. Eating was a chore that I had to do because you've gotta eat.I got used to it. I was eating much smaller portions and it was enough. I wasn't snacking all day. I wasn't craving food. It was fine. I could deal with it.At the beginning of this month, my insurance stopped covering any "weight loss" medication. Under no circumstances will they cover it. Prior auth doesn't matter. There is no diagnosis that a doctor can provide that will get them to cover any of them. Ozempic? Mounjaro? They will cover those because you have to have actual diabetes for those.$25? $100? More like $1,600 a month ($1,400 with a coupon).Fine, I thought. I didn't like what it did to me.I was wrong. I knew I had an unhealthy relationship with food in the past. I knew I used it as a reward and a treat way more often than I should. I knew it was my only reliable source of dopamine in my sad life of no drugs, alcohol, or sex.I don't think I ever fully grasped just how bad it was until now. You know those butterflies you get when you are thinking about going on a date or when you're about to jump off a high dive or make an important speech in front of a crowd? I get those when thinking about my next meal. I'm basically "horny for food" all the time. Thinking about getting some Taco Bell for lunch (for example, because it happened on Monday) causes me to think about it all day until lunch time. I might even order early because I can't wait. I shovel that stuff in and savor every sensation. My body rewards the hell out of me for it.That's not normal. That's very unhealthy. That's like eating disorder territory. The only reason I'm not fatter is because I also like to deprive myself so the eventual reward "feels" better.Now I'm crying about not being able to get Wegovy. It turned off that reward mechanism and I hated it for it. At first. It fixed something I didn't even know was broken and I was mad about it because I liked it that way. My brain used that to find ways to make me feel good and I got somewhat addicted.Wegovy worked. It saved me from myself. And now, thanks to fucking insurance and people abusing the system turning these medications into a fad, I was cut off.My family doctor is willing to help me find a reputable compounding pharmacy and a weight loss specialist who might prescribe it for me again. I have my annual physical Friday and we are doing to talk about it in person.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Wegovy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wegovy</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Ozempic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ozempic</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Mounjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mounjaro</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/USHealthcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USHealthcare</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/EatingDisorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EatingDisorder</a>

Kaona 🇨🇦I had an appt with a doctor from the eating disorder place today. It's amazing how you can become so used to some aspects of your disordered eating until someone professional sort of goes "Hey, that's pretty fucking bad". She also said she suspects that I have features of ARFID with my Binge Eating Disorder, but their psychiatrist would have to confirm it (currently am on a wait list for a consult). I've been diagnosed with B.E.D. for years, but the ARFID part is news to me. <a href="https://disabled.social/tags/EatingDisorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EatingDisorder</a>

Last time was 3 months ago, and I wish this one would be threw months away still.I'm *not* looking forward to it, as my last appointment, I struggled. Hard.They want me to start a personal treatment for the disorder. I want that. I fight with it a lot, I want to know how to deal with it better.But.... I told them last time about my recent developments, my struggles involving time, energy and money.I told them I was going to move, which costs a lot of money and energy, and also time. They said they understood. I told them I could not commit to a treatment yet due to this. I want to do it right, have the spoons for it, and be able to afford the drives there (and back). They said they understood.And then came the "buts". But this... But that... Maybe if...I felt like I wasn't taken seriously. I felt like my current situation didn't care as it wasn't in their interests...They gave me my adhd meds prescription and a new appointment. Today. And I still have to move. I still have to get into a new routine and new life. The situation hasn't changed yet. I'm still too low on spoons, too low on funds and not really motivated to commit because of all that's happening.I just can't commit yet. And I'm afraid they'll push me into it now, as "I've been given some time already". I just feel that will be one of their arguments... And I don't have the energy to discuss it again, to explain how hard this all is for me, again...So I'm really dreading the appointment...Need to drive 45 minutes for a 30 minute appointment, then drive back... I asked for an early time for the appointment, they set it at 14:00. Which could be early for them? But for me, it means *before* the afternoon. Ugh... More stress because I have less energy in the afternoon...Yeah, yay for mental (and physical) health issues. At least life won't be too boring?🧚🏼‍♀️ 🍀 💜 🐾<a href="https://beige.party/tags/PixysJourney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PixysJourney</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AuDHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AuDHD</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/NeuroSpicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NeuroSpicy</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ActuallyAutistic</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/EatingDisorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EatingDisorder</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MentalHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MentalHealth</a>

Kaona 🇨🇦My mental health has really taken a dive lately. I can't get the treatment I need for my mental illnesses or my eating disorder because it's not covered. I guess it's no wonder that things keep getting worse. I'm having more frequent PTSD nightmares, my depression and anxiety are getting worse, and of course, my eating disorder is getting worse. I'm having a pretty hard time coping. <a href="https://disabled.social/tags/MentalIllness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MentalIllness</a> <a href="https://disabled.social/tags/EatingDisorder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EatingDisorder</a>
