Is the author actually trying to commit suicide?

Cause this kind of severely disordered eating is a very good pathway there.

EDIT: I ask this as someone who has spent a literal lifetime struggling with both disordered eating and suicidal ideation.




for science. but i think he's gonna time it perfectly with his natural death sometime far off into the future


I suppose self-induced when the weapon is food is, technically, natural.

I’m reading someone (very sadly) doing destructive testing on their own cardiovascular, pulmonary, integumentary, and alimentary systems, seemingly without a control specimen.

Hopefully you’re right about far off, but everything I’ve seen reading through some of these posts implies that further off isn’t growing more likely.
