[@RoMitchell]

I’ve been getting hate from vegans for not being vegetarian anymore, and l'm frankly so confused. Reminder that I’m a human, with feelings, and that you have absolutely no idea what actually goes on with my life and my health day to day. I'm not eating meat every single day, and I'm not 'killing animals' (as one person said). I’m one person who can’t be a vegan because I need to prioritise my health. I have a massive heart and I adore animals - trust me it took me months to come to this decision. Someone called it a 'little thought experiment'. Guys, I have a RESTRICTIVE eating disorder which nearly killed me. If I need to eat fish a couple times a week to make sure I live a full and healthy life, recover fully and am not restricting - I don't think it needs to be something I'm made to feel guilty for. It's a decision I explained and I don't want to feel restricted and as if I can't join in with things. I'm not asking for opinions on it, I'm explaining it so that people aren't surprised when they see me eating different things. Don’t bother commenting if you’re going to berate me for making a decision that’s best for me. I do my best to be kind always. I ask that you do the same.

[@stephcwooten]

I had to make this same decision and I am SO proud of you, Ro. Keep being brave and vulnerable and authentic and challenging the eating disorder voice. 🔥

[@lavishlyvice]

The way people worry more about the animals you eat rather than your recovery baffles me quite a bit. You can care about animals while still being respectful about other people's choices to eat them, _especially_ when it concerns recovery. A lot of vegans have pretty big virtue signaling problems and hone in so hard on the "eating animals is immoral" argument that they ignore every other factor that plays into people making decisions like this. It's kind of insane. Keep doing what's best for you, Ro. Your journey is inspiring a lot of people to love themselves and I'm grateful you're sharing it with us.

[@Dan-gv8js]

I'm so sorry people are sending you hate. I'm vegan myself but prioritising your health is so so important and that's your decision and nobody else's. You can be so proud of yourself for how far you've come and you should never have to feel guilty about doing what's best for you x

[@AyselGwynith]

I am sorry you're getting these reaction. I have a lot of respect for you for realising and admitting that eating vegetarian may be related to your ED. It doesn't mean that all the other reasons for going vegetarian were not true motivations. They very well may have been, and perhaps still are. You can always go back to eating vegetarian if you feel like you want it and it is for the right reasons. I applaud you for making the decision to challange your ED _despite_ all the valid reasons to stay vegetarian. That must have been hard. It just goes to show how serious you are about recovery and how much you respect yourself, your body and your mental health.

[@sun-bleachedbones6027]

As someone who is forced to eat a 90% meat diet to survive (veganism in my teens destroyed my health), I can tell you that depriving yourself of meat in your diet is not the way to live a happy and healthy life, no matter what people might tell you. Eat what your body needs and ignore the haters! Proud of you Ro.

[@makenna4540]

I used to watch Ro’s videos and think “god I wish I could recover like her”, one day I finally realized that I could recover if I wanted to. Then, I wanted to recover and she helped me so much. I’ve been “fully” recovered for 6 months now and I’m so glad I found the strength to do it

[@lisi2315]

Actually I think you carrying on with this channel and showing your life after recovery is just as important as your journey to recovery that you documented. Because to me seeing the drastic difference of where you started out and the person who you have become now who can do and achieve all of these things and actually enjoy her life is the biggest motivation to keep choosing recovery for myself. You're literally showing by example that recovery is first of all possible and also completely worth it.

[@maartjecourant3302]

Ro saying: "I'd never regret recovery" is the most helpful thing I've heard in months. Recovery it is... and there'll be no more relapses. Ever.

[@Pluto-tj9mq]

One thing about eds is that as much as I would never wish them on ANYONE , they really make you value the things that most people take for granted . Feeling rested , feeling satiated/full, taking the easier road , sleeping in your own bed , having a normal conversation , feeling focused , seeing people , evenings in , evenings out - all the little moments in life that most people would gloss over , you come to value . _(:3 」∠)_ that’s my hot take !

[@girkingrightnow]

very true

[@milly_annxx7516]

One of my old friends once said to another girl “ I hope you get @norexi@ and die” and then proceeded to show off about her own Ed. I don’t believe that anyone who has ever truly suffered with an Ed could wish it upon anyone else

[@monicas2461]

After I got depressed and totally lost appetite, I was so happy when I got my appetite back. Being able to eat is wonderful. I understand every moment you mentioned. Thank you for the reminder! Have a great week ❤

[@halfasleeppoet]

I began recovery a year and a half ago and I’m doing so well now, but I’ll never forget the horror of fortisip omg. If any of u have had to drink it, I know it’s not the best lmao but you can get through this.

[@leanygaard3505]

Your answer about "Do I regret my ED?" was perfect. Thank you. Getting ill was never any of our fault and therefore we can't regret it. And we would have become great people without the hell of ED.

[@milly_annxx7516]

My dad used to lock me in a room alone with all my meals until I'd finished it all. Its only given me trauma around my home and meal times. I'm so glad you're parents were never aggressive to you because it honestly held me back so much. thank you for helping me choose recovery for ME you bring me so much comfort and motivation

[@ACKRYL]

WHAT, do you still live with your dad??

[@stenitez9724]

My mom had a eating disorder in her teens. Her grandmother would feed her whatever she wanted and never gave her portions, just endless food. They would praise her for eating so much and then when she was finished they would sing, fatty fatty 2 by 4, can't fit through the kitchen door. They judge her for the eating disorder and didn't understand how she developed it. She had a horrible relationship with food for a long time because of it. Why are some family members so evil? I'm sorry you had to experience that. Proud of you though!! Keep growing and blossoming!!

[@mummytrolls]

That’s what the hospital did to me and ppl say I’m dramatic for saying it traumatized me 😵‍💫

as a vegan I don’t understand other vegans who try to force their believes on everyone, u should be respectful towards people opinion , we live in free world, btw i am so proud of you, u r such an inspiration and your channel helped me a lot through my recovery journey 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@mareike_666]

Totally agree 🖤🌱

[@EmiliaKate]

fully agree with this!!!

[@lfairy6130]

Veganism isn't a diet though. You're talking about the animal rights movement, which is a social justice movement which is completely different to the diet, that is not even half of the philosophy. Wfpbd is separate to the animal rights movement of veganism.

[@MadPuddings]

Exactly

[@sentienttapioca5409]

My ED also cost me my A-levels, (I sat them, but absolutely flopped) and it's SO disheartening to be asked 'So, what are you doing now/next?' by people, even if they mean well. I genuinely don't know what to do with my life, but that's not the response anyone ever wants. I'm sorry not to be living up to their expectations, but I'm a burnt-out former gifted kid who's doing her fucking best, and I need to remember that that's enough. We all do. 💛

[@RoMitchell]

you’ve done your best and that it’s always enough 🤍

[@claire778]

🙌 But you will still be "gifted". We don't change that. We just take the paths that suit us and our needs.

[@Pluto-tj9mq]

Sis there ain’t no past tense in gifted ! A levels aren’t the be all and end all , and loads of successful people didn’t even TAKE any qualifications! Ur still so young , you’ll find your way if u give it a chance ❤

[@soilgrasswaterair]

There will be more chances to fix your grades. I skipped school so much in my teens for various reasons, and after a few years I decided to fix my grades (years after my classmates had graduated). I fixed my grades and managed to get top grades, and I’ve studied psychology at uni. and now I’m studying law at university. It’s not too late, take it in your pace and compare yourself with you and the steps forward are yours to keep. It’s also ok to stand still and also moving backwards. Tend to your mental health and know it will be ok. *You are not alone and you are so valid* ❤

[@ACKRYL]

A path never ends though. Just because your ED caused you to shift from paths doesn't mean you've failed, it just means life has chosen different possibilities for you. There is no right or wrong path, each and every path has it's benefits and downfalls, you'll be okay. Also, regarding life choices (specifically pointing at career).. Something that has helped me is asking myself this: ''What job would you find the least agonising to work at for an extended period of your life?'' Like every job for me is a big no, fucking hate everything, but if I were to see what would be doable, I was actually able to choose between 2 jobs. (Instead of labeling it as ''My dream job'', I'd label it as ''Least worst job'').

[@millymoo6272]

Hearing you say 'I don't even think/worry about the calories anymore' is just absolutely incredible. I cannot believe how far you have come and to hear that that is an actual possibility is just amazing. Thank you Ro

I don’t have an ED but I do have PTSD, AUDHD and OCD which have some overlap in symptoms etc. I struggle to honour my hunger because of executive dysfunction and I avoid foods because of textures or contamination fears.

a few months ago I could barely eat, when I saw Ro eating what she was afraid of and recovering, she gave me strength. Without you Ro I would not be getting my life back. I love you forever Ro ❤❤

[@chloesusan4804]

I'm so glad you talked about this. I've been struggling with anorexia and bulimia for almost 12 years, and i've started being a vegetarian during that time. At first, i thought that it only was for the environment etc, but i've been thinking about that a lot those past few months, and i actually think that it might have been a way to restrict, find excuses, and have control over my meals. I've been eating fish for almost 2 years now, and i actually kinda want to eat meat again someday but i found it so hard because i've never enjoyed it a lot (i adored my mom's chicken curry and barbecues) and i also because of, i mean, the animals. I've been struggling with those thoughts so i'm glad to see that you talked about it

[@SarahRenniexoxo]

Hello lovely, on the topic of university I went to university and that's when my alcohol addiction spiraled out of control and I think with all the pressure, deadlines, new surroundings it might set someone back with their ED if they aren't fully confident. Don't feel any pressure to do things you don't want to, stick to the path you want to take. It really resonated with me when you were speaking about parents, my Mum used to shout endlessly at me and even get physical with me and none of it ever helped if anything it made me worse it was only when I got my own flat and done recovery myself for me was I able to recover. I don't know if it's the same with ED but with addiction I always say no amount of love or anything will help someone stop the only person who can stop it is theirselves and as always I'm so proud of you, I love seeing when you put out a new video 💗

[@38mama38]

[@diekleinemu7300]

You're such an inspiration, Ro ! It makes me happy seeing you doing so well. I want to recover as well (I've been stuck in quasi recovery for years and have a normal bmi) however, if I eat anything carby/fatty/sugary I literally can't stop. It's really not possible, I eat until I'm in severe pain. My mum always comments on how much I'm eating and that I can't be this hungry which makes me feel worse. Also I'm so afraid to stop exercising(is it true that you shouldn't work out at all if you want to get your period back?) I feel like everyone who recovers still exercises and no one overshoots like I did..

[@newwavemusic6065]

I am fully recovered from Ana. Partly because of you and your videos it got easier and easier day by day. I kept going and now I am here. Thank you Ro. We love you

[@agnesstenlund4627]

Have followed you since day one because of exactly these incredibly wise thoughts and just who you are as a person. Love that your answers are so nuanced and show that not everything is black and white. I've never had an ED but also decided not to call myself a vegetarian (although I mostly eat vegetarian food and care about the environment), because I don't like putting put restrictions on food at all. And that's okay. If you change your name from rorecovery, that's okay as well, you are so much more and we are many who don't view this primarily as a recovery channel. I've never in my life been so proud of someone I don't know and would like to thank you for letting my come along on your journey.

[@brightfurys]

this time last year i found your channel and i was going through the hardest time ever. i may miss my sick body sometimes, but i dont miss my sick life. im now in college - having narrowly passed my gsces and just turned 17. i've finally made friends for the first time in my life. i got excited about claiming a free bakewell tart from costa on my birthday. i went to the cinema and had a picknmix (entirely chocolate ofc.) i even get a sausage roll on the way home from college sometimes. most of it was up to you - which sounds like a lotta pressure, but i gotta be honest! you are such a beautiful soul and i will continue to watch and support your content no matter which direction it goes in. thank you, ro! :D

[@alexy5917]

i just want to thank you for saying that it’s ok to stop school for your mental health, in my mind school has always been the only thing I’m good in. My ed is the reason I’m currently redoing my school year. I wish somebody would have told me it would have been ok to take one year of(my grades last year had been ok but I would have been in my last year now) and I wish I had taken this school year as a break but atleast having done everything before lightens the pressure a bit, I’m not in recovery yet and I can’t let it go yet but it’s good to see someone saying school isn’t everything

Hey Ro, sorry for the unsolicited advice feel free to completely ignore it! I was in a fairly similar situation with college and I was too unwell to sit my Alevels at 18. I ended up sitting my Alevels using an online site called uplearn and sitting them as a private candidate at 19/20. It worked really well for me as I had no stress of deadlines and could do them purely from my own home. I went to uni at 20 and am so so happy. I know everyone is different but I just wanted you to know that if it is something you want to do it is still possible! You seem to be smashing life at the moment :)

Anyway, fully support people who need to incorporate all the food groups for the sake of mental health.

Hey Ro! I'm in full recovery and have been for a couple of years. Full recovery is what you said exactly, like tonight I had bread with chocolate spread and part of me was like "no! You already had bread once today!" And then I was like *shrug it off* and ate it anyway. Also, as a vegan of almost 10 years I am sorry that those annoying vegans have a go at you. The environment and the animals are always going to prefer to have healthy advocates so if your journey requires you to stop being vegetarian then your mental health is more important. Good luck with everything!

I didn’t go to uni until I was 36. If you want to go there is always time. Having said that my husband never went to uni and has never been out of a job. There’s plenty of time for you to decide what you want to do. ❤

I love ur curly hair!

[@nothing-yj4bb]

you’ll never hear someone who is fully recovered saying « i regret recovery », if your mind ever told you that you should regret recovery , then it’s only because you’re not recovered

Ugh yes on the return to life! We've been locked down an extra year because of having a pandemic baby, we didn't want her to get sick. Now she's vaccinated and I'm having ED therapy homework to go out and buy a donut to challenge the "but then people will see me buying the donut and judge me!" intrusive thought, but I've been struggling to do it and the social anxiety along with the ED anxiety are compounding! Ro give me strength!

[@georgiahilliard3416]

I think you’re so brave Ro- you’ve come so so far and you give me so much hope that things can get better. I think owning the vegetarian things is incredibly mature and sensible. I think it’s incredibly common within this community and sharing that will hopefully help others too x

As someone who doesn't remember my 21st birthday (and party) because I was entirely caught up with my ED and anorexia was in complete control. Celebrate it, do something special, do something you'd really enjoy.

You do you Ro 👏🎉💖

I love the chill sit down vibes in this video❤also just wanted to say that I completely support you going back and trying out non-vegetarian foods! I'm vegetarian and I actually did it in a similar way to you- I made that decision while I was in my eating disorder and really unwell. recently I've been questioning whether it was fully non-disordered as I always insisted, or if like you said, there was some anorexia in there as well. I saw on your insta that you said some people are giving you lots of hate for this, but I think your mental health should be a top priority, so if that means reintroducing and challenging fish and meat then you should feel fully empowered to do that! you have your whole life ahead of you to be vegetarian- fully recovering is the most important atm, and you can always decide to be vegetarian later in your life when you're confident it's fully non-disordered. sending lots of love and support❤don't feel guilty for doing things you know are what you need in this moment xx

Just the distraction I needed while doing the dishes 😂 Warm greetings from Germany to you Ro

[@puffinboo3919]

You’re so pretty 😍

[@Hollyestelle11]

This is so helpful to me, thanks Ro! I feel torn about being vegetarian and whether I need to let that ‘restriction’ and ‘label’ go in order to fully recover. This has really made me think xxx

[@tuvi0032]

You dont Need to quit unless you certainly know you went veggie because of health reasons. I am a recovering living in a vegan household with my partner who is also vegan but not disordered. I have questioned my veganism at times because its heavily discussed in this ed recovery community. But for me it was never about health or restricting, as I can cook the same meals as I could non vegan. But that’s also because I live in Sweden and the options in grocery stores here are endless. Heavily consider your main intentions before going back to meat! If you do it’s always an option to go back to veggie when you’re fully recovered. Im almost fully recovered. Got my period back a few months ago, at a healthy weight 😊 just need to work on my inner thoughts

[@Hollyestelle11]

@@tuvi0032 ah thank you for e he sting your experience. I became veggie when I was anorexic but I also never much loved meat and fish so it is hard to work out what my primary motive was. I will think carefully about it. I am so so glad you’re recovering ❤️
