tw sh, sui, eds !!
when the universe blesses me w creativity to write i write. this is gonna be an article on how topics like sh, ed’s and sui have been romanticised thru media etc !!
so what do i mean by “frosting n sprinkles or cuts n blood ?”
well it’s pretty self explanatory but basically the romanticised part is “frosting n sprinkles” and the reality “cuts n blood”, and how some might not be able to separate the romanticised side from the dark reality. how some push the romanticised side on media even if they don’t realise and how harmful that can be to young impresionable girls (or any other gender !!) including me.
why do some romanticise it and how ?
i don’t know if they realise what their doing but i hope they realise some day and heal. examples of this is like on tumblr theres sooo many post w hashtags like #cvtting is silly #older men do it better and #thinspo etc, and usually the posts have disturbing pictures ( sh, sexual stuff, nudes and dangerously thin ppl who r clearly not healthy ) and it can be soooo triggering !! i once out of curiosity searched up sh on tumblr and saw all these posts w pictures after pictures of sh and i couldn’t stop scrolling, it triggered me so bad that i relapsed after months of being clean. so i can’t imagine how others could get triggered and what that could cause them to do. how has mental health has become a competition these days? which is so crazy !! i can’t say i haven’t bragged about being injured when i was younger but i stopped, bc i saw how that affected others and had a friend who trauma dumped and sent pics of her sh and how triggering that was to me.
theres so much online that (indirectly or not) triggers and encourages others to do harmful things to themselves and others online and in person.
i mean take ariana grande as an example, at first i felt bad and worried for her but it’s gotten to a point. young adults and teens (like me) see her and its encouraging ppl that they should try look like that since ariana says thats her healthiest body she’s had, which isnt true !! i’m not trying to comment on her body or make her feel bad but she has so many young fans who look up to her and are now using her as #thinspo, and she must know about it !! its irresponsible of her as a big public figure known by most. and i understand if her company and media is making her feel insecure and stopping her from eating properly, she’s been in the spotlight for so long it must’ve affected her as a child too but still, stop telling ur fans that ur healthy when ur not </3
thoughts ?
and for me i still sometimes think that being thin and sh is whimsy n cute, which it’s not !! i’m on a healing journey but seeing all these things make me feel like i should just get worse again, which i slowly am, and this is probably affecting that and causing it a bit at least.
i know this is a heavy subject but it’s so normal these days and it’s not okay, i don’t mind when things / people r harming me but when it’s affecting others like me i get protective and want them to js be okay </3
so if ur struggling u can always message me (or chat in my substack’s chat !!) and i’ll try respond as soon as possible <3 ik talking to adults or friends or a therapist can be hard especially if u don’t want to heal right this moment. if u try talk to someone they usually push u to try heal, but the only way to heal is if u want to. so u can always talk to be n i wont judge or pressure u, i’ll js listen, even if u don’t wanna talk about whatever’s bothering u. we can js yap n have fun <3
thank you for reading my random thoughts, remember to take care of urselves angel ⊹ ࣪ ˖ ໒꒱
