Aly_Realrecover (Alyce) is a supposedly 19-year-old anorexic woman from Milan, Italy. She claims to be in recovery, and posts pictures of expensive meals, but it's likely that she's not eating them. She's also known to rip sandwiches and claim them as bite marks.

>>101194Apparently not.
"Most Member States regulate compulsory admissions of mentally ill people by means of special
mental health laws. Only Greece, Italy and Spain do not. One of the main reasons for not issuing a
separate mental health act in these countries is to avoid stigmatic effects when separating rules and
regulations for mentally ill patients from those in effect for general health care. Many psychiatric diseases,
however, impair an individual's capacity for reasonable judgement, thus making legal regulations
necessary. This special situation puts mental health care in a position distinct from that of other medical
disciplines. Clear legal regulations for this special problem which adequately consider the civil rights of the
compulsorily admitted patients seem to be a good safeguard for the interests of the persons concerned.
Thus, there is no evidence that a not separated mental health law in itself constitutes progress."

>>>Why are they leaving it so long?I'm guessing because she seems willing to improve and has talked to doctors, taking steps (at least in the past) to recover, so they can't just force her into a hospital with our laws.
>>101732Honestly, looking at this I feel sad. I don't understand why you people seem so mad at her. She obviously needs help. Fighting EDs isn't a linear path, there are relapses and you need lots of support in those times too. At this point I just hope she gets hospitalized and gets all the help she requires.
Idk, farmers, let's just not do something that might make her feel worse.
No. 101746
>>101744I'm just pissed because people who are struggling with eating disorders and recovery are REALLY sensitive. She puts on a front that she IS recovering, and while her words are inspiring, she still posts the outfit of the day photos where she is looking thinner. She's a walking
trigger for so many of her thousands of followers. It's not okay for her to mislead impressionable folks who look up to her. That said, some of the responses here are pretty cruel, but she either needs to, admit to her lies/relapse, or at least stop posting body shots.

>>101746>>101748The thing is that I agree and understand all this, but I don't really think she's doing this with malicious intent? So it's like, yes, she needs to stop for the sake of the other recovering people who follow her, but at the same time treating her like she's doing this on purpose is also not fair to her?
The only 'right' thing I can see happening here is someone - a good friend, someone who has experience anorexia - talks to her frankly but with tact and explains why what she's doing is harmful to herself and others. Or, possibly, someone contacts her mother to explain the issue and point out that she must have started purging again.
No. 101780
>>101763I don't think she is a "bad person" at all, but the reason she makes me raeg is that she knows damn well she is in the middle of a horrible relapse yet she keeps typing out these long bullshit captions about how she is fighting and beating anorexia.
Instead of just silently restricting, she is purchasing and preparing expensive food that she does not eat. She wastes her family's money and lies to her mother, who seems like a lovely person.
There is no reason for her to post an OOTD every single day. If you compare her selfies from now to ones from months ago she is visibly thinner and sicker. She posts them because she needs daily validation that she is thin. She comments frequently on the number of followers that she has and she loves the attention. There's no way she'd ever gain an ounce and have to "be fat" in front of her many followers.
Meanwhile impressionable young girls struggling with their own EDs see her "eating" tons and tons of rich, calorie dense food while she continues to get thinner, and that in turn makes them feel like failures when they DO quickly gain weight from eating a high calorie diet.
So yes, she is most definitely lolcow material.

A lot of centers seem to figure junk food must be everyone's worst fear and eating balanced is just inviting the disorder back in. So they stuff you full of unhealthy, non-nutritious food and insist any sense of balance or healthy eating is disordered.
I've seen it send people to the other end of the spectrum, leading them to binge eat, or compulsively eat, or binge and purge.

I don't know how she has managed to con people for almost a YEAR into thinking that she's regularly eating and keeping down 3000+ calories a day (sometimes "binging" on FAR more; never any mention of purging, of course) and gaining weight. It's really fucking obvious that something fishy is going on, yet she has a huge following of people who truly seem to think she's ~really recovering~…
I also don't know why, if she wants to fool people into thinking she's gaining weight, she wears and photographs outfits that emphasize how emaciated she is. I mean, she's clearly fishing for attention online, but how are people in her real life not noticing her progressively getting thinner and thinner despite the MASSIVE amount she "eats"?

But… how is three/four days going to stabilize her enough? It seems like she would have to stay far longer than that?
Bet you anything she convinces her mom to let her continue to ~recover~ at home. She claims to have gained 800gr this week (which is less than 2lbs) and that was "more than usual" and freaked her out. Uh sorry but if she was even gaining ONE pound a week she would have been visibly healthier by now.

>>111122Electrolytes (she's a walking heart attack). Plus, she's severely dehydrated. She'll gain a ton of poop and water weight, guaranteed, which might make her edge over the minimum %IBW.
In hospital, they usually make you gain 3.5 pounds per week. Some people exceed that amount. If she had been following a meal plan she wouldn't look the way she does. I don't even know why she's pretending with the food since she's going IP.

>>111227>>111311She said she went to a different clinic that would admit her "inpatient/day hospital." I think she means a partial hospitalization/day treatment program. She balked at the idea of inpatient when the first place mentioned it, then went to this second place and apparently agreed to go there instead, so I'm thinking she's not actually going inpatient there but just doing a daytime hospital-based ED treatment program.
I still think she'll either find some way to get out of going there, or she'll magically continue to lose weight (or at least not gain any) while "in treatment."

I'm glad to see that at least a few more people have been calling her on her shit in Instagram comments. They'll probably get deleted eventually, but still. I just feel bad for the younger/more naïve of her followers who are also struggling with or trying to recover from EDs and are taken in by her act. The fact that she's been passing her fake-eating and starvation (or purging or whatever she's doing) off as "recovery" and "weight gain" and "progress" is just surreal seeing as all you have to do is scroll through her Instagram to watch her get thinner and thinner as time progresses.

No. 115140
>>115104oh yes, its definitely mostly subconscious. though some more self aware/honest anorexics will tell you that they know staying in a more childlike body lowers peoples expectations of you. of course, thats not the only driving force behind the disorder. theres genetics, trauma, and other influences. as with addiction, i believe "genetics load the gun, environment pulls the
trigger".
i know i do this, tho not on an extreme level anymore like a certain "joyous happy child".
i have a masters degree, but I've just been nannying for over a year bc i don't want to get a "real job". and as long as I'm eating (and paying my own way, i live on my own and don't ask my parents for $$) nobody really says anything. Then again, I'm an adult and not financially dependent on anyone, so i really can't be told what to do. Aly is technically an adult too, but she's def dependent on her parents for $$. Italy may not have laws in place for involuntary commitment, but her parents can and should cut her off unless she goes to inpatient.

No. 117757
>>117748Nutritions aren't the most important thing is someone is severely underweight. They want the body to get to a more stable state as fast as possible.
Plus, animal products are generally more calorie-dense so you have to eat less for the same amount of calories in a lot of vegetables - I think it's easier to eat smaller amounts instead of bigger ones? (Apart from eating at all, fear foods etc.) Same with water. You shouldn't fill yourself up without consuming calories.

No. 117787
>>117761Story time! I was forced into ED treatment at a really awful hospital/clinic when I was a teenager, and they made EVERYONE eat meat unless they could prove that they couldn't for religious reasons. Since I wasn't religious, too bad, so sad.
I stopped eating meat at a young age, both because I hated the taste and texture and because I was disgusted by the idea of eating "flesh" (I eventually got over it and realized that flesh can actually be pretty delicious). My vegetarianism wasn't at all about losing weight, and I didn't start calorie-counting, restricting, over-exercising, and rapidly losing weight until years later. Also, I'm not lactose intolerant, but I've always hated milk and most dairy products.
In the hospital, from day one, I was required to eat meat and copious amounts of dairy products, even though it made me sick. At first, they lied to me and tried to pass off meat as vegetarian imitation meat products, like I was so stupid that I couldn't recognize a chicken breast. Then, they basically just said that I had to suck it up and eat whatever shit they threw at me (and a lot of it was pretty disgusting - have you ever had to drink straight salad dressing?) if I ever wanted to get out of the hospital.
It was weird, though. At first, chicken and turkey tasted AWFUL after years of not eating them. After being forced to eat them for a few years, I started to really like them, and now I can't imagine going back to being a vegetarian.
No. 117791
>>117787A really common thing amongst people with ED's seems to be the categorisations as foods as "Good" and "Bad" like people really into veganism and vegetarianism.
I know this one chick who was raised as a vegetarian (She later converted to veganism of her own volition) and all of her food issues seem to stem from this. Like loving the taste of cheese so she'd binge eat an entire block in the middle of the night but then feel so guilty about eating it and contributing to the dairy industry or whatever her parents had told her she'd spend the next hour throwing it up.

No. 117883
>>117864Oof…I can only speak for myself, but going from eating a restricted intake for an extended period of time to being reintroduced to massive amounts of food was MISERABLE. It's extremely uncomfortable, both physically and mentally. If you're in such a position, chances are, your digestive system has been fucked to some degree, especially if you've been using/abusing laxatives and/or purging. Your stomach has probably shrunk and your digestion will likely be sluggish at first. You may experience extreme bloating, disgusting gas, horrible abdominal pain, miserable heartburn/reflux, and the worst constipation ever. Oh, and if you were a purger, you may continue to involuntarily upchuck your food. I can understand why people do anything to avoid treatment/weight gain.

>>118070She went to one ED clinic and they said "get thee to an emergency room immediately," so she just went and found another clinic that apparently is willing to let her do day treatment/partial hospitalization only rather than being inpatient. She's still calling it "inpatient" on IG, though. Since she's as emaciated as she is, she has low potassium levels, and she's been passing out, it would be pretty irresponsible of a clinic to let her stay at a "lower level of care" when she clearly needs to be medically monitored more closely.
I won't be at ALL surprised if she just doesn't go to this clinic, either, though. I'm guessing they'll advise her to actually go inpatient and she'll balk and decide she doesn't need any professional help.

>Farrokh posted a video plea for help in April and opened a GoFundMe page asking the online community to raise money for her treatment at ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders in Denver, one of the only treatment facilities Farrokh and her husband said would admit her. However, Farrokh’s husband, Rod Edmondson, says her physician has instead suggested home treatment to rehab from her extremely fragile state. She currently weighs around “40-something pounds.”“In Denver you’re looking at high altitudes and there is a number of different factors that are there,” said Edmondson, citing worries over the potential complications he believes the thin air could cause.
But a doctor from the ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders said Denver’s high altitude isn’t cause for any extra concern. “In my experience, there is absolutely no contraindication to receiving care for anorexia nervosa at altitude,” said Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani, a certified eating disorder specialist and assistant medical director of ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders. (Gaudiani, it should be noted, has not examined Farrokh and is not providing her with medical care.) In fact, 20 percent of the center’s patients arrive by air ambulance, a cost often covered by insurance, Gaudiani said. “We have a terrific track record of making sure that medically fragile or weak patients are transported safely to ACUTE rather than languishing in a local, possibly in-expert, hospital setting,” said Gaudiani in a telephone interview with Women in the World.
People on Rachel's fb page called APS on her. It seems like you really have to go hard for them to take notice, or maybe CA APS is more responsive.

It took me a ridiculously long time to get my very underactive thyroid diagnosed because my parents insisted to all the doctors I saw that I was 'depressed.' Because of that, none of them ever tested me for anything, they just said it was psychological, no matter how much I insisted that I really, really wasn't depressed, I was just exhausted, freezing, and felt like absolute crap. Other than these weird physical symptoms, I was normal. By the time I was of age, those notes were still in my file, so the new doctors said it was just depression too.
Ironically, I ended up with disordered eating tendencies because of my thyroid issue causing me to have great difficulty losing weight, which in turn lead to me actually becoming depressed and a whole slew of other issues that all stemmed from being constantly ill.
And now I'm 20 and finally have my damned thyroid medication, and I'm doing pretty fine.
TL;DR, fuck medical treatment of mental health issues, and also fuck HAES, because a large part of why my issue went ignored even at my insistence was because 'I wasn't overweight, so it couldn't be my thyroid.'

There's a statistic that I cba to cite (Google it) that says that people with panic disorder are more likely to die from heart attacks than the general population. They're not more likely to
have heart attacks, just more likely to die from them. Maybe there's a legit medical reason, but I can't help but wonder if this has to do either with it being assumed that it's just a panic attack, or with people not seeking medical attention, either from fear of not being taken seriously or because they themselves think it's a panic attack.

>>119928>>119934>>119936>>119940>>120178>>120218Hah. First time back on lolcow in a while and I come back to this…I was diagnosed with AN at 14 and have spent much of the last 12 fucking years of my life trying to get health professionals to look beyond that diagnosis and pay attention to my other unrelated health issues (including a congenital functional GI disorder that I was repeatedly told was "just in my head"). It really is disgusting how being branded with a mental illness can cause professionals who should know better to completely disregard you.
Cool story, bro time: I went to see a doctor on Monday because I felt like I was dying. He sent me to the ER. I'm still underweight (goddamn fucking GI issues) and that AN diagnosis is still in my charts, so every single doctor, nurse, and assistant in the hospital told me that my symptoms were due to a "panic attack" and/or me being "malnourished." They didn't even ask me what meds I was on before they started administering other meds that turned out to interact with what I was already taking. They admitted me, ran a few blood tests and an EKG, told me I was fine and just needed to gain weight/eat more, and discharged me in even worse shape than I was before.
As soon as I got a hold of my psychiatrist and described my symptoms, it took her about two seconds to figure out that I was ACTUALLY experiencing severe serotonin syndrome. The meds I was given in the hospital could have killed me, and I still feel like dogshit. (Yeah, I know, no1curr.)

Oh, and one must also be pigeon-toed (toes together, heels apart) to make the legs appear longer. Most of them pose pigeon-toed in any photo that shows their legs.
My personal favorite, very similar to the laying on the ground/sucking in tummy/sticking out ribs/"hay guise look at this pen" pose, is the mirror selfie of the back. Proper form involves being as hunched over as possible, with arms and everything else as contorted as possible, so that the latissimus and trapezius muscles, plus the ribs and pelvis all look prominent to some degree.
There's also the selfie taken at just the right angle so that the arm attached to the hand taking the selfie looks skinnier… And some before and after photos, with optional "my story" captions are common.

Honestly, the "good part" of me hopes that Aly will realize she's in severe danger, drop her façade, accept help, and be able to gain enough weight to at least get out of the ~danger zone~. Even if she's been blatantly deceiving everyone this entire time, her family doesn't deserve to watch their child die like this at such a young age. I doubt she's physically beyond saving at this point, but mentally? Who knows.
However, I won't lie: a big part of me finds this whole saga fucking hilarious. If she was eating anywhere near 3000, even 2000 calories a day, she wouldn't need to be being carefully tube-fed in a hospital alongside those tragic little meals. If she'd been gorging herself on gigantic, LUSH, OILY, DELISH food, her stomach should be able to tolerate what they're giving her in the hospital. She wouldn't be a spoopy skeleton who's been visibly losing weight for the last, I don't know, 6+ months? More? She wouldn't be about to go into organ failure because of starvation/malnutrition/dehydration/electrolyte imbalance/whatever. It's ludicrous.
If any of her followers truly take her pictures and words at face value and aren't just trying to be supportive or humoring her, I'm embarrassed for them. It's so painfully obvious at this point that, unless she has some bizarre, obscure health problem that none of her doctors have caught, she's just another one of many gravely ill anorexics manipulating everyone around her.
I'm fucking gagging on all of these "UR SOOOO BRAVE OMG SUCH A FIGHTER!!! UR MY INSPIRASHUNNN!!!" comments from her fans, but at least SOME people seem to be concerned/dubious about what she's posting. Although I think that may be more due to them being asspained that she's only apparently going to have to stay in the hospital for a week or two when they were kept inpatient for months and months, until they were at a stable BMI.

>>120982yeah, but we'll see what happens when she gets out. if she stops lying and actually gains weight
that'll be inspirations. going into hospital for any treatment is scary, but it's not "brave". it's what millions of people do if they don't want to die.

Who's this girl? She says she's "like a sister", but she looks like her. Half sister?

>>121060I thought so, too, but when I Google Image searched "NG tube" I found a lot of pictures of adults with tubes done like hers and a lot of pictures of babies and kids with tubes like the ones I've seen used on people with EDs. From what I've seen in the US, it seems like using the thinner, more flexible pediatric tubes, tucking them behind an ear, and taping them to the cheek is the norm for patients in ED wards/clinics.
I imagine the thick tubes like Aly's must be pretty damn uncomfortable, though. I've had to have a few tubes inserted for GI tests/procedures (pic related - esophageal manometry test, 0/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND) and they felt horrible the entire time they were in. I don't know if I'm just a huge babby or something, but every swallow kind of tugged on the tube and it made me gag. Aly reeeeally should have stuck to actually eating that lush, oily food she was so meticulously photographing.

She posted ger typical OCD pic of some pasta but what caught my attention was this descriprion. What does she mean "It was hard eating with the old lady." She doesn't want to be seen eating? It doesn't hold water since she likes to talk how she eats lunches and snacks with her mom, bro and best friends

she's fucking killing me here. watching her lies come unspun is oddly gratifying. that probably makes me a horrible human being. oops.
No. 121320
>>121314If she was in an ED ward, she'd be (or, at least, it would be ludicrous if she WASN'T) observed during her meals, during the first few days especially. Trusting an anorexic at such a low weight and with what seem to be fairly severe health problems to eat unsupervised would be fucking idiotic. However, in a general hospital, I think there's a good chance she isn't being monitored nearly as closely as she should be. In general, I'd say that a lot of health professionals are pretty clueless and easy to fool when it comes to EDs; I don't know how it is in Italy, though. I also think she would have complained about being watched right now if she was on 1:1, considering how bothered she is by having another person occupying the second bed in her two-bed room…then again, she seems to be an expert manipulator and food magician, so even if they have someone watching her, she might be able to find a way to "eat" the food without really eating it. Who the fuck knows.

>>121355I also doubt that, if she was being closely observed, the nurse or whoever would be thrilled about her arranging, photographing, and posting her food like she has been. It's pretty damn "disordered" - photographing each of your fucking supplement drinks? Seriously?
This dinner is so sad. No bread, no pasta, no rice or anything. Maybe ONE carrot, at most, cut up with no visible oil, certainly not an "absurd amount of oil." That would make it look, well, oily, not dry as fuck. And wow, look at that shockingly "huge" piece of chicken…half of that probably isn't even edible meat…

>>120473Indeed this is an earlier dinner time for Italians, especially in the summer. Since now it's hot as balls in Italy, they usually wake up late, have a small breakfast, some small snacks/sandwhiches over the day, and then late in the evening, when it's finally a little cooler, a biiig fat dinner. It's not unusual to eat late (~10PM) and stay up late.
Even children stay up late, because once the sun goes down/nighttime it's the only time of they day they can really play outside (unless maybe you live near the sea). If you go to a playground at 10-11PM you can be sure to find lots of children still playing. Life i Italy often really starts at dawn which is why dinner is often late.
At least that is my experience from Sicily.

I don't think this hospital knows much about treating EDs. They let her continue to do weird shit with her food and post pictures of it online for other people with EDs to ogle at, they tell her she's gained 4kg in 4 days because they are "'over feeding' [her] body" and scare the shit out of her…she's already freaking out about relapsing from the "too fast weight gaining" and it's only ~hospital day 5~. This bodes well for the future, yep.
I liked this comment:
>Do they have an explanation why you didnt gain that fast at home with more cals??
I hope people are just trying to get her to 'fess up and aren't really as clueless as they come off sounding.

Annnddd she continues to remain completely delusional. WHERE IS THE OIL, ALY? WHERE IS THE CHEESE? When you photograph something close up and describe it completely differently, do you not think people will notice? Granted, this one looks like there might be a bit of "oil" (IDK, a tsp of butter?) mixed in, but still.
I actually thought (hoped?) for a moment there that she was going to drop her act once she got hospitalized. She is incredibly dedicated to continuing her life of lies, though.

>>121845We have a branch of Costa in our local General Hospital. On ward they bring a machine around a few times so you can get a coffee in a plastic cup.
In psych ward you can have caffeine. There's even a vending machine for cokes, so they don't care if alcoholics or addicts use caffeine. I know top notch places like the Priory don't allow caffeine.
