[@SanamshaysTutorials]

it seemed like the girl who called others 'healthy' despite it being a trigger for herself hasn't fully recovered bc anorexia can be so competitive to the point where its nasty and I just dont understand why she would say that

[@garfieldsgirlfrindvb]

Finally someone said it instead of attacking her

[@sarah.phillipa854]

even if she said it just to judge if he had an ed or not its such a triggering thing to say

[@cayseaxo]

she mentioned towards the end she has not fully recovered and has a long way to go. i wish her and everyone else the best in their journey to recovery!!

[@greton5225]

bro how can you just outright say "you have a big presence" when you've struggled with anorexia yourself. can't wrap my head around that

[@fey0217]

⁠@lilith hi i have an ED. she knows what she's saying is messed up and she knows she is talking to people who MIGHT have an eating disorder. idc what goes on in her head but many people in ED communities agree that you shouldn't say stuff like that people. projection is never okay. this isn't an issue of having a "lack of empathy" she just lacks manners and projects.

​@@lilith1497😂

[@sumessu]

@@lilith1497 anyone with an ed would tell u the same. i know my friends who suffer think the exact same. she’s clearly still struggling and using it as a way to make people realise how small she is compared to him. she’s making people aware if they weren’t already thinking it. she’s doing it to make herself feel better and u can tell because she did it multiple times in this video

[@greton5225]

@lilith really wish she 'had empathy' too, being fully aware that the people she is talking to might be struggling with the same shit she is - she's guessing whether they have an ED, not their shoe size or favourite rapper. i get that it's not malicious, but you have to take into context the situation she is in and that she might not be the only victim of a disorder on this show.

[@carly9857]

Y’all.. she not only used the “bigger presence” card, but she also intentionally said someone looked healthy after admitting how those words made her feel so she could see if she could guess people correctly

[@emilyk1109]

Cut should've triple-checked to ensure that no guesser has a history with (specifically restrictive) eating disorders themselves, for the sake of protecting the contestants. The thought patterns, externalised hate and projective behaviours don't go away just because you stop purging or develop healthier eating habits, and it was obvious that she was far from being actually significantly recovered by the time her introduction was done. Not trying to generalise everyone who has an ED, I'm affected myself and the majority of the "community" has enough empathy to not behave in such a way, especially those who are adults with years or decades of their own experience. I'm also not trying to shift the blame away from her over to the casting directors at all, she's a grown woman with two children and more than a decade of experience in regards to how hurtful and triggering certain phrases can be, there isn't any excuse. Nevertheless, many affected people do struggle with recognising their own toxicity, especially if they think of themselves as being recovered, so Cut should've been more careful to counterbalance this.

She knows that it is a good thing to be called "healthy" it just triggers differently for her. But she knows that it isn't like that for everybody else and I bet they talked about that too.

[@kaitbunni]

@@simonisenberg4516 the problem is, people’s idea of healthy isn’t always the same

[@anonymousbo0318]

​@kaitbunni Except that's bs. Healthy isn't an opinion that varies. It's a truth. As in factually people are healthier than others based on certain actions and genetics. That's it.

[@keri2868]

@@anonymousbo0318 I think what Kaitbunni is stating is that people's personal relationship with the word healthy is not the same. And someone's own feelings about "healthy" are not factual. For many with EDs healthy has negative connotations of being 'plump' idk exactly how to phrase it. While calling someone healthy may sound like a complement, it could reinforce some people's body dysmorphia/triggers. Hence, appearance based compliments can often be unwise to give people who could potentially be suffering with EDs

[@raversfantasy]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@simonisenberg4516 actually, being called “healthy” is a trigger for alllll us ED ppl, mainly those of us that are restrictive. Most of us are on online forums that encourage our disorder and it’s very known to be an insult for us. It’s not just a her thing at all. She was being pretty rude, but it’s the disordered part of her brain that makes her want to act that way so that she can feel better about herself.

[@simonisenberg4516]

I don't get why so many people here get it wrong. He came out with a big chest and wide arms, she mimicks it when she says that and he mirrors it back, understanding what she meant. Dude is wide and strong and owning it. She commented on that. That so many people seem to interpret it as something like "Wow, you're fat!" says more about your own body image problems.

[@thatssomavin]

Hi Folks! First Guy here! I wanted to let y’all know that I felt in no way harmed or offended by comments or observations made! It’s the name of the game! Blindly guessing and especially on such a normally difficult topic to navigate through, this in a way destigmatized a conversation that would be considered TABOO in our society. I have such a beautiful relationship with my self and food and am in a healthier more loving place in my life. You are not alone in your struggles. It’s not easy, and the thoughts linger, but it is possible to heal and grow and not be defined by your trauma. I love y’all.

Wishing you the best with your recovery, keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your story with us! I have to be honest, and I still have to admit I was completely disgusted by that comment. Whether you were offended or not, she had no way of knowing whether a comment like that could have triggered you. I think Cut have to be more conscious of the content they put out and someone who has suffered from disordered eating/ weight fluctuations myself, that comment would still send me into a spiral even though I consider myself to be well into/ completed my recovery journey.

[@bambeano5703]

i think this is an amazing topic to cover in one of these videos. i’ve been, actively, in recovery for about 3 years now. Even when I was heavily using, the people around me seemed to not realize. They were shocked when I finally shared my struggles, apologetic that they never caught on. (100% not anyone else’s fault, tho. We can’t expect help if we don’t ask for it. I needed it and never knew how to ask) if you met me, by chance, you wouldn’t know what I, internally, struggle with on a daily basis. you don’t ever look at someone and think, “this dude is recovering.” you might just see me as a human, someone you want to connect with. the thought of recovery might not even pass through your mind. Topics like this are important, even necessary, to discuss and explore. It provides more visibility and compassion.

[@cut]

Wondering why we made this video? Read this note from our director: Unfortunately, society stigmatizes eating disorders. They are deemed shameful and we don’t talk about them widely, making it harder for people who suffer from eating disorders to get the help they need and harder for people to avoid getting one. We believe everyone has a role to play when it comes to destigmatization around mental health challenges, and challenges with food, eating, and body image. As this video shows, it is a fallacy that eating disorders present in one particular way. Many people do suffer without outwardly appearing as so. Creating safe spaces to have honest and open conversations, educating ourselves and others, and showing compassion and empathy for others, are just some things we can all do to help. We hope by making this video, we are encouraging people to have more productive and healing conversations around a topic that is affecting nearly 30 million people in America directly.

Suggestion: The most common eating disorders by far are binge and overeating disorders. It would be nice to see more representation of that. Society mainly focuses on anorexia and bulimia but sooooooo many people struggle with gaining weight due to food addiction or addiction to eating more than they need. Eating disorders aren't just about body image but also how you view food and if you overeat or undereat, and it can be hard to admit to onesself that they are overeating because it is so normalized. It is possible that multiple people in this video have overeating disorder but don't realize it due to how common it is.

I was looking for this comment because i cant belive so many people dont know that OVER EATING is an eating disorder!

[@charlysiapicot803]

watching this video, the woman that has the two kids mentioned that she struggled with an eating disorder and still struggles with comments such as being called "healthy". then proceeds to tell someone that could potentially have an eating disorder that they look healthy. or even when she told the man that he had a bigger presence. as a person that struggles with an eatings disorder this really aggravated me.

[@natreeves1111]

So happy to see representation of ARFID here !! I have ARFID too and it’s often not very known about in the ED community, so definitely wasn’t expecting it but pleasantly surprised to see it shown in this video

[@timetwo2230]

i HATE that the girl with glasses was guessing based off her own experience. she is not very open minded at all & only cares abt her type of ed.

[@OfficialTomsSkujinsFanClub]

As someone who has anorexia I was shocked by Nicole’s lack of filter and lack of subtlety. It was incredibly disappointing to hear her be so focused on appearance and body. I can tell you from experience those are the worst people to be in treatment with. Anyone at any size can have any eating disorder, it’s not about how you look. Eating disorders do not discriminate by gender, age, race, religion, sexuality etc.

[@EmmaJaworski]

As someone who has struggled with anorexia in the past, a lot of people dont understand that it's a MENTAL illness that can (but not always) be seen visibly. Only like 6% of eating disorder sufferers are visibly underweight, and anorexia is not the only (nor the most common) eating disorder. All are serious, all cause mental/emotional distress, and all are deserving of treatment. Even though I did fall into that 6%, I was unfortunately never able to get treatment beyond seeing my primary care physician and a few therapy sessions because of how inaccessible treatment is, but thankfully i sorta outgrew that stage of my life and the eating issues resolved as well since i was no longer in the environment that was making them thrive, but this isnt the case for other people. Eating disorders have the 2nd highest mortality rate of any mental illness, with someone dying every 52 or 62 (i forget which) minutes. Increasing peoples access to treatment is something that needs to be seriously addressed, especially with eating disorders becoming more and more prevalent. Thank you Cut for raising awareness.

[@Lets-Get-Serious]

I'm worried about the anorexia girl's two kids. Her brother had anorexia too? What was subliminally handed down to them? And will it unintentionally be handed down again?

[@alfie6441]

It likely will. She doesn’t seem to really have a handle on it herself so she likely will pass it down to her kids.

[@danivieiraribeiro715]

None of us can know based on a 14 minute video what their family dynamic looks like or the specific conditions and factors that have led to them developing eating disorders. We are all capable of recovery and change and the steps their family members are taking towards recovery is very personal. A lot of people with eating disorders are understandably concerned about 'passing down' their conditions, but an important part of breaking these cycles is releasing shame about who we are. You can have an eating disorder and be an amazing parent. The fact that she's in this video talking so openly about her experience is already huge.

[@yaeli_i_guess]

I mean all mental disorders have a genetic basis so it will statistically can be handed down, but the same is true to depression, bipolar, etc. Everything really.

[@simonisenberg4516]

She's working through it and is aware. I bet it will be a topic and I have high hopes that they can break the cycle or at least start to deal with it at an early age.

As someone whose never had an eating disorder, I cannot imagine how difficult it is to overcome since food is part of our every day life and we need it to survive. I commend all of you who have worked through your EDs and sending love to those still struggling! Hoping you can all come to realize our bodies are just a vessel ... what's really important is what's on the inside!! ❤❤

[@erinthevegan9629]

I love this comment so much. I have anorexia and it's so refreshing to have someone who hasn't had an ED understand what it's like. It's literally one of the hardest thing to go through. The hardest part about overcoming your ED is that unlike people who are addicted to alcohol or drugs, we cannot give up our drug, but need to learn how to live with it. We cannot survive without food but we tell ourselves that we are worthless and don't deserve it; EDs are our coping mechanism. They are a slow death and so hard to get out of when your perception of yourself and your body is so disordered. Eating disorders are also so normalized in society so you never feel like you're worthy of recovering. I wish everyone struggling the best in their recovery journeys ❤❤

[@brianahicks4805]

The fat girl to fat girl “is that from torrid?” exchange is so relatable.

[@cottagegremmy]

Eating disorders are so stigmatized and I feel like a lot of assumptions are made when it comes to EDs. Not everyone that has an ED is chubby and hates themselves-- and that's coming from someone who is chubby and had an ED. I feel like people assume that skinny people don't have EDs (unless they became skinny through the ED); however, there's a massive difference between having an ED as a skinny person and having an ED as a chubbier person. Also, not every ED makes you skinny. I'm trying to get my psych degree right now and we honestly don't cover EDs enough-- they're so complex and there's no one way to have an eating disorder. I hope everyone in this video either loves themselves, or reaches a place in which they do--- or, at least have body neutrality. Everyone deserves to live comfortably in their body without the stress and judgement society gives, we wouldn't have to struggle with this.

[@basmentchild4879]

I've been skinny all my life due to my fast metabolism and I've had couple of people including my mother think that I have an ed and assume that I think I'm fat and starving myself just because I'm naturally skinny, so honestly most body types get some kind of criticism.

[@cece1117]

​@basmentchild literally same its so annoying. And no matter what you say they don't listen to you.

[@CandesamoTheGreat]

Huh, that's interesting. In my personal experience I've seen more people assume skinny= more likely to have an eating disorder. Fat= just lazy, lacks self discipline, "nO eXcUsEs", etc. Usually when a larger person has an eating disorder others are in disbelief because they solely associate EDs with anorexia and being extremely thin. Which is of course, incorrect and ignorant. Not disagreeing at all with your comment, it's just interesting to me.

“When somebody calls me healthy ir is a huge trigger” “You look healthy”

[@imid3440]

anyone else noticed that people with anorexia often quote the whole “not everyone with an ED is underweight… BUT I AM/WAS”? also identifying as ‘anorexic’ as if it’s a part of their personality?

[@maradoesnotexist]

anorexia literally takes over your entire life, unless you manage to recover it becomes pretty much your only personality trait. also why would it be weird to ‘identify’ as anorexic if that is what you are, like would you also be upset if a person with depression calls themselves depressed?

[@ae9999]

Yeah because anorexia distorts your brain and makes you proud to be unhealthy and underweight. They often see it as a competition to be as thin and unhealthy as possible. This is why the concept of this video- look at someone and guess whether they have an ED- is so bad. For an anorexic, being told they ‘look’ like they have an ED validates their illness and is triggering. Being told they dont ‘look’ like they have an ED is also triggering because they feel like they are ‘failing’ somehow. Obviously these are generalisations, but those are very common anorexic thought patterns.

[@birdie_.]

Great episode! I’m very thin but I struggle with OCD and ADHD and it causes me to hyperfixate on certain meals and eat nothing but that type of food and become a picky eater and I found out that although I’m thin on the outside, I have dangerously high levels of cholesterol and sodium so just because you see a thinner built person doesn’t make them healthy. I’m vegetarian so I relied too much on cheese and eggs for protein and avoided a ton of healthy foods that I didn’t like the color or taste/ texture of. Got diagnosed with ARFID. Just because you see a heavier built person doesn’t make them unhealthy and that was super eye opening. Take care of yourselves everyone and don’t worry so much about others!

[@harmonyw7935]

“rain” was so so so disrespectful fr i would cry if someone said that stuff to me

[@emilyk1109]

I had to scroll so long in order to come across a comment like yours. Her conversation with the last guy disturbed me so much, as did the fact that the editors found her comment on eating disorders being hilarious so "iconic" that they chose it as this episode's intro clip. Anorexia nervosa is obviously non't quirky nor funny in any way whatsoever. It has one of the highest mortality rates of all psychiatric disorders and males are even more likely to die as a result of their condition. I'd really love to hear what incited the association between eating disorder and "hilarious" in her mind.

[@abbyortiz132]

I love the group hug at the end. I would of definitely needed it if I was there 🥺❤️ I love how Rayne asked for hugs. Even though I have been recovered from my ED for 4 years now, I know how triggering the word “healthy” can be because that was also in my beginning stages of my recovery or even using words like “big/bigger”, “ch*bby.” I still struggle with that but I know my body image doesn’t define me. I know Nichole is struggling, and sometimes when individuals (some) who struggle with anorexia tend to compare bodies with each other or want to make themselves feel better of how they look by judging how others look. That is uncalled for and unnecessary that she said “bigger energy” while she could have said “bright energy” which could of been better/nicer.

[@simonisenberg4516]

Hug life! It's always a good time when Rayne (?) is on but those are three of my favorite Cut regulars and the right people to do this round. edit: Concerning comments about the "Bigger Presence" scene, I think from his body language he got what she meant since he handles himself now very differently as opposed to making himself appear smaller and weaker when he was bullied. It was more about posture and size in general (I mean he looks like he throws washing machines for a living), not about weight/fat percentage. It's clear that he just has a wide body type and works out. Also, from my own experience, when you are someone who is obsessed in a way with judging yourself and being judged by others, that tends to make you judgy too. Your mind is just constantly evaluating stuff and sometimes it comes out weird.

I REALLY appreciate you including someone with ARFID. There is such a huge stigma around that one. There is stigma around every eating disorder, but it's a little different with that one IMO. I literally have a family member who had experience with anorexia, their mom totally gets it, but thinks I just wanna be special. Like yeah, sure, I love being the weirdo who has to eat nuggets at a wedding. She explained it so well too, when I eat something I don't like, it's like my whole throat just closes up, it's impossible to swallow food at that point. Thank you so much for this episode!

I didn't guess it but the girl with ARFID totally made sense as soon as she said it because I was getting SPD/autistic vibes from her and I think ARFID is usually a sensory processing issue at its root. Certainly sounds like it is for her with the way she talked about textures.
