For me, disordered eating was about control. I couldn't control what happened around me, or much what people were saying about me, but I felt somewhat better or more " in control" , when I didn't eat too much. But it's like your mind starts going with a pattern of what it thinks is " normal", when clearly it's not. So, I feel like it's getting yourself out of this pattern, and a newer way of thinking. Like taking a shovel to climb yourself out of a hole. Realizing that our bodies that house us are temporarily here to manuver us while we are here, puts it into a little more perspective. It's made to last us a lifetime. And, we can't care what other people say in the end because it's not about them, only the opinions that house themselves own them, and their minds really . Yep.

I think it's so brave of you to say all this. I've struggled for years with anorexia. I started listing to your music about 5 years now and it's gotten me through a lot. I never felt a alone and it's horrible the stigma of men and mental health. I was brought to tears hearing this because I knew those feelings. I was body shamed since elementary school and now I'm in and out of hospital with this, life changing thing as you said. I hope you can find ways to learn to look at yourself and love you. I'm starting off small with small things I like about myself. It's a long and rocky mountain of a journey. I know how it feels, you want to look like a skeleton, you want to see ribcages when you see yourself. I know I hate what I see in the mirror. And I'll admit during covid it got a lot more.. life dangering. I'm 5'1, and barely 98lbs. I want to recover, and I'm trying. But starting small is the best advice I can give. You're worthy of eating, you're worth it.

I'm not handling it well and don't have any words of wisdom but I understand you.

I'm sorry u are struggling. I don't have an eating disorder, however at one point I was 82 pounds (I'm 4'11" btw) due to health issues and definitely caught myself having thoughts like, "I don't wanna get fat again" whenever I would eat after my health got better. I've always been a "fluffy" girl except for that time in my life. What worked for me to start eating regularly again without those intrusive thoughts is, I would do something like watch a movie or TV or read while I ate, to distract myself from the fact that I was eating. I know it won't work for everyone, but it's the best advice I have in this situation. I will say this though, if that's u in your profile picture, u are gorgeous!

@Skye, I mentioned in Richie's comments earlier, I am an aging human body that survived anorexia but very late in life. Aging plays a great part in recovery. As you said, "metabolism slows down." More than you can imagine. The thought of living with this poor self image and self worth I have of myself will distract me, but anorexia will put me in a grave earlier than hoped, or in the life expectancy alloted a Boomer. If an old body can get back on track I see no reason why a young body can't beat the odds already in their favor. Youth. Good luck, young people. Learn to like yourself at least a little bit before the hormones and all that our human form requires to exist begins to diminish as nature intended. 👍🌹😊😷💉☮

Wait Mercy Kill was in 2018? Holy hell time flies. Also I didn't know the phrase "skinny fat" until you mentioned it in a video. As a big girl my whole life I literally laughed. But I get what it's like to have people immediately assume they know how to fix a person based solely on their weight. There's so much more to weight than what you eat or don't eat. Mental health is a huge part of it and people clearly see that with ED but if you are a big person it's clearly a character flaw and it's "easily" fixable. Life isn't fair and the standards of beauty are so unrealistic, we're not anime characters we can't just erase what we don't like about ourselves, we can improve it and grow with it but that takes work and a support from others. The first step is realizing there's a problem and admit to it, congratulations that's a big step.

Recovered ED here; if you want any advice on how to slowly recover, start with premier proteins. They have very low sugar/carbs/calories. You have to get consistent protein after starving your body for so long. Just try to have one or 2 a day. They have a coffee flavor I really like. Take one day at a time and one shake a day (hopefully with other meals throughout the day, but sometimes you just can't everyday) but get those shakes in. They won't make you feel full/bloated which can lead to anxiety and guilt. But protein is the biggest positive change you can make now that you've made the huge step of admitting there is a problem. Oh and stay hydrated. You can do this! IF YOU HAVE THE WILLPOWER TO HAVE AN ED YOU HAVE THE WILLPOWER TO RECOVER FROM AN ED!

It's called the perfect bar is made with peanut butter honey and angel wings I don't know it is to die for the dark chocolate almond it's a little questionable you probably find the peanut butter and chocolate chip, just peanut 🤤 butter you can probably find it online. I despise protein bars usually, they taste like "healthy"! I got my nephew to eat these he takes medicine for his ADHD and it kills his appetite. He's always got one in his book bag.

As a 30 year old guy, I can so relate to this. I've struggled back and forth with anorexia for about 15 years now. I'm only 5'5" but for years hovered around 98 pounds and then in 2015, decided I was tired of starving myself and just ate what I wanted. I got up to 160, which makes me look huge and ever since have fluctuated between 120 and 160. It's good to know that I'm not the only one who'd rather be small and prefer the sickly look over being muscular.

Exercise is generally the cure all for eating disorders but no one ever wants to do it. I’m not even just talking obesity… for underweight people to. The obsessing over food and calories thinking that’s all that matters tends to be a common theme. So shifting that focus entirely away from food and actually focusing on the physical side for the body works wonders. This tends to get shunned or overlooked, for whatever reasons, in today’s climate. Exercise is borderline a dirty word now 😂

KZfaq was nice enough to grace me with reminding me who you were. Fan ever since. I really hope you remain resilient and take care of yourself. So proud of your honesty and vulnerability! That takes courage and such a genuine level of respect for yourself and the hopes of others wellness. I have been hospitalized 6 times for mental health and addiction. I don't like my body and I never have reached a level this caliber. But was no more than 115 to 120 all of high school. I lost 37 a few years ago when my body decided to just reject all food and I've never had the best appetite since. I have spent many times looking in the mirrior,disecting my every flaw. I felt disgusting at 165 and considered not eating or just inducing myself to vomit a few times. I would cry and believe nobody could every love or appreciate me. Thank God i never did that,i just got life threateningly ill instead. For 6 months i had no choice but to throw up violently probably 7 times a day or on a good day just when i ate. Never figured out why. They said acid reflux and ibs and i stopped the treatment for those. I still dont get sick like that. Anyway im cruising at 135 for now. Still wished at times maybe I could be like 142 and try to turn it into muscle. It absolutely is a real problem and isn't just some imaginary unreal situation.

I’m a little late to this one but as someone with a lifelong ED I feel compelled to says something here. You are so not alone in how you fell into your ED. I know many many stories of both men and women who ended up with debilitating ED’s basically by accident like you have. After losing a bit of weight from having the flu, or even from dieting that they fully intended to stop once they reached their healthy goal weight, they found that the brakes had disappeared and they couldn’t stop the thoughts or behaviors. I’m so sorry that this happened to you. It’s truly a terrible, insidious disease and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone ever. But you are not alone, and you certainly are not weak. It takes incredible strength to talk about any mental illness, let alone to admit that you’re struggling with one. Im so grateful that someone with a platform as large as yours is bringing attention and awareness to the fact that ED’s are widespread and they do not discriminate. They cross all lines of gender, culture, etc…and they are life-destroying and progressive, fatal illnesses. The good news is, you can heal. The best thing anyone with an ED can do is exactly what you’re doing and that is talking about it and about how it feels for you. ED’s thrive in silence and secrecy. A good therapist and positive support groups have helped me tremendously over the past few years. I have a long way to go, but it has undoubtedly gotten better. Please keep speaking about this, for yourself and for others. Use your creative outlets to express yourself when words fail. I deeply hope you’re able to heal from this. Thank you so much for showing courage and bringing your struggles out into the open. I’m sure it’s already helped so many people. It makes me feel less alone too.

Hey man I don't know if this will help at all or not but I have Bipolar Depression and have noticed a significant difference in my feelings of anxiety and manic episodes once I started eating more often and working out. It isn't a miracle cure by any means but it definitely made life feel way more manageable. Just eating more healthy and often made me feel better without even working out. Hope things get better for you.

It’s going to be okay Richie. I know this is hard. I’m still struggling with anorexia and body dysmorphia. I understand the pain and hurt of those friends saying to “just eat”. I hate my body, and yeah it’s all in my head, but my head is my own worst enemy. Anyway, not trying to ramble about myself, I just want you to know that I understand if no one else does and that I’m here if you need to talk. Thank you for sharing your story with the world, I know that took a lot. You look great! I hope you have a lovely day!

I just spent the last couple of hours binge watching most of your vids, and i can tell you're a really nice guy with a nice personality. quite entertaining tbh). I was able to relate to this video in particular. I am too going through a lot mentally aka anxiety. and its been kicking my ass LOL. but this video made me feel safe about me feeling so different from everyone else. Its OK to talk about it.... i hope that you feel better soon. and its ok not to be ok.

Richie, I hear and see you. You are not alone in this. Your "oh no" moment is something that I personally experienced and others I've spoken to have also experienced. I've been in ED "recovery" since January but have been taking seriously the last 4 months due to heath complications. I can say that it does get easier, but fighting that demon is so fucking hard. Coming out and recording this video and posting it (!) took so much fucking strength to do. And you're absolutely right that there is a mix of what "causes" it, from aesthetic to societal pressure, to issues of control. It does also cause that confusion and memory issues, called brain fog, that take a while to get out of once you're nourished. This video was bold and vulnerable and I think you doing this is you holding yourself accountable. For me, I personally wasn't able to hold myself accountable and needed intense therapy, but if you're seeing a therapist, or are thinking about it, this is something to bring up with them or even a nutritionist. Men have eating disorders too, and they can be just as deadly and debilitating as they are for women. I'd like to leave you with a little saying we have in the eating disorder recovery community. #NEDA Richie, you can do hard things.

I knew this the day you said on stream you only had boiled eggs to eat and were exercising. I told you that couldn't be good for you and you said you loved how you looked, you silly goose. And I said nothing, cause I know if I tried to make you see it, it might get worse, I'm no therapist. I wish i could give you home cooked stuff bro, and some distractions. Anything to help. I know I don't know you personally and I can't say I love you bc of that, but know Richie, that despite I know you were a bad boy in some aspects, I appreciate you a bunch, and if you liked it (bc i know you hate it), I'd give you a tight long hug, my dude. You deserve to get better.

I hope you can get a handle on this before it gets out of control, completely. I struggled for over 12 years, but I am completely recovered now. On a side note, I hope you know that not everyone dislikes you. I randomly was suggested one of your videos-through the interesting KZfaq algorithm-and I have grown to really like you. Contrary to popular belief, we all make mistakes. We all do dumb things. But, we are humans. We didn’t all come with our own unique user manuals to use in every situation we go through in life. I see you as another human trying to get through life. You are incredibly talented as an artist and I find you to be extremely well spoken. I didn’t think we had too much in common before I watched this specific video. This only further demonstrates my opinion that you are just trying to navigate this confusing life like the rest of us. I wish you the all the best. A nutritionist and/or therapist might be helpful in order to help gain some insight and keep you accountable ❤️🩹💫

I remember thinking it was crazy you had the will to do that. I have OCD and just general neurotic tendencies. Eating was never disordered for me until I got sick and dropped a lot of weight. It was like something clicked in my head that said "Your weight is something you can control and obsess about and make charts and do math."

You have EDNOS, like I do. I'm struggling right now because I AM a big person and nobody believes me when I admit I have an ED to get help. Me not eating is what makes society happy, but the more "omg you look so cute you lost so much" I get, the more it feels good. I want help... not compliments...

I feel you. I was developing the same disorder. My meals consisted in about 600-700 calories. Fasting, a meal a day. I was living alone. So nobody could tell me what to do. I didn't have the pressure to keep myself healthy. Now. Well. I don't live alone, I need to cook every day. The problem isn't gone but at least I went back to 2000-2500 calories. The fact that I have to cook for someone else, helped me to try to reconcile with food. The calories counting isn't truly gone. I don't think it'll ever go away, but I'm more conscious about what I need to eat. If not for my sake, for those around me. It took a while to understand that it's in fact an ED. I simply didn't want to admit that I've had caused myself another problem. But it won't change the fact that it exists. The only thing I can recommend is try to take care of yourself. Little by little, you'll be alright.

Making this video was one of the best things you could have done. Admitting it is the first step. I am a recovered addict for 7 years now. While you may not think of that in the same way, I still see eating disorders as a form of addiction and believe that addiction to anything all stems from the same things. Fear & resentment leading to a spiritual malady or hole in the soul. Luckily there is a solution to this as anyone who has overcame knows and it typically is not just willpower alone. We catalog our fears and face them, list our resentments to see where we are at fault to make amends and realize that we ourselves cannot be the center of our own universe....... we need someone or something else to give us much needed perspective. Find someone who has been been there and recovered to help you through to the other side....that is what I did. You can overcome this and will ultimately be a better man in more ways than expected. You may start on the road to overcome an eating disorder but find yourself transformed into an entirely better and happier person.

Richie… this video was posted almost three years ago and I don’t know if you read newer comments on old videos, but if you do I just want you to know that I know exactly what you are going through and how hard it is to overcome. But you can recover from it and making this video is an incredibly brave first step. It’s now summer of 2024 and I hope you are feeling better. My eating disorder was triggered by repressed memories from a very traumatic childhood. I was devastated and was losing my mind. The eating disorder was a desperate attempt to control SOMETHING. ANYTHING. And what a lot of people don’t understand is that eating disorders are very hard to stop because it is addictive AF. It took me about 2 years to overcome it and now I’m eating healthy amounts of food. I sought professional help and when I asked my doctor how bad it was, how much danger I was in, she told me that my condition was diagnosed as moderately severe. Moderately SEVERE. Those words scared the shit out of me and pushed me to get out of denial and do whatever I could to get better. I can see the fear in your eyes in this video and I recognize that pain. I’ve seen many of your more recent videos and you seem more happy and safe. But I like your general message on your channel: stay sad but not too sad. It’s a very real thing to say. Human beings can not be happy all the time and we go through hard times. Anyway, I just want you to know how much your art and your music and your genuine spirit is helping me. Thank you so much.
