SI wound treatment

Self-Inflicted Wounds (in case you don't know the shortened form)

A lot of girls I have met who are also anorexic have cut in the past or still do so this info goes to you.



Before anything else, stop the bleeding. Put pressure on it with gauze, not a tissue because when the wound is clotting to stop the bleeding it takes in the tissue. Gauze is too thick. Don't bother checking constantly to see if the bleeding has stopped it will don't worry.
After the bleeding has stopped, clean up the wound a bit with just water.
Applying an antibiotic is alright but don't put too much.
Cover the wound and change the bandage daily.

NOTE- If the wound is deep and won't stop bleeding Please get medical help. Even if they put you on a suicide  watch, it will only be for the fact you cut NOT the fact that you aren't eating. So make them think you just aren't hungry during the watch but still eat a bit to keep them away from the subject. You will get the help you need and no one will bother with your eating habits as long as you know what to say.

Ana Creed

Decided to post The Ana Creed for many reasons.
1. I have it in my PA (pro ana) Journal
2. I may not agree with every last one of these but I agree with the message completely.
3. I was asked to put it up to keep a few motivated so here it is :)

I believe in Control, the only force mighty enough to bring order to the chaos that is my world.
I believe that I am the most vile, worthless and useless person ever to have existed on this planet, and that
I am totally unworthy of anyone's time and attention.
I believe that other people who tell me differently must be idiots. If they could see how I really am, then they
would hate me almost as much as I do.
I believe in oughts, musts and shoulds as unbreakable laws to determine my daily behavior.
I believe in perfection and strive to attain it.
I believe in salvation through trying just a bit harder than I did yesterday.
I believe in calorie counters as the inspired word of god, and memorize them accordingly.
I believe in bathroom scales as an indicator of my daily successes and failures
I believe in hell, because I sometimes think that I'm living in it.
I believe in a wholly black and white world, the losing of weight, recrimination for sins, the abnegation of the
body and a life ever fasting.

Things I Do NOT reccomend (4)

28. Just throwing away food. Someone could find it, wrap it up in paper towels or flush it down the toilet.
29. eating before you go to bed then laying on your right side. It's true laying on your right side helps with digestion, but you don't burn off all the calories you just consumed.
WEIRD FACT!!! Laying on your left side helps with circulation, so it you have poor blood flow, lay on your left side and it will help some
30. What is out of sight is out of mind. Not true you still think about it, so keep your mind busy on other things. paint, rearrange furniture, etc.
31. Not cooking home made meals. WRONG! homemade vegetable soup is great, one bowl has few calories and the soup lasts for a few days, even a week if you make a lot.
32. eating with the family Every night. It's not so easy to get out of this sometimes but I ended up finding a few shows that my parents LOVE and are only on during dinner hours. they are in front of the TV and I can throw the food out easier. (Works vice-versa as well, say YOU found a new show and ask for them to watch it with you as a family)
33. Placing food in your hoodie pockets. Not a ad idea necessarily, but some food gets mushy and then you are stuck explaining the food everywhere on your clothes.
34. Not keeping busy. Take a dance class, get into painting, do something. Everything burns calories!
35.  Not having a food diary. Bad idea, you need this. Well, you want this. you want this because you can ALWAYS look back and see your progress and see if you are eating too much or need to just be more active.
36. Getting your food first. I say get it last, that's what I do. That way I can act like I'm eating it before I sit down and already throw out some. If your parents notice food in the trash say you dropped some but already cleaned it up.
