Just watched the new season of "The Crown", which is largely about Diana and Charles. They show her b/p-ing a couple of times and I didn't think it was very realistic - who flushes the toilet while their head is still in the bowl???

Or is it just me who thought it was weird?

What are your thoughts?

AND WHO PURGES SITTING

 

whew, so it's not just me!

 

At least they have shown how messy it is, with her cleaning afterwards, brushing her teeth, using the air freshener. Still, these scenes weren't graphic enough to warrant a "viewer discretion advised" disclaimer imho

Maybe she just wanted a vomit infused toilet water face cleanse

AND WHO PURGES SITTING

I don’t know how it was shown but I do because I’m to exhausted to stand lol I just sit in my chair bend over and all the food comes out

oh the lovely backsplash face wash

What worries me is also the typical glamorisation of bulimia: I feel like they glossed over her purging and focused on the more "glamorous" aspects of having an ED, such as eating / not eating and being thin. Yes, her purges did look painful, but just not enough. And she seemed to almost enjoy bingeing? I don't know about anyone else, but I usually cry my eyes out and hate myself whenever I binge...

i wasn't going to watch the crown but now i feel the absolute NEED to watch it this instant

 

i had no idea she was bulimic!

Brushing teeth after purging tho

I’m literally the opposite I can’t purge that well when standing. I either have to squat or sit. I would rather have to stand though since I’m sure that burns more calories lmao

Lol I know the girl who plays Diana

But agreed. Also wonder if Diana covered her hand marks as I can’t see them in any photos and I don’t know a way of purging which doesn’t mark my hand

[featherstone]

Oh!!!!! I was wondering if they included her bulimic disorder in the show!

As for your question yeah I find it weird too lol... maybe it’s psychological but I “like” to be able to visualize how much I have purged.

BTW: for anyone who’s watched the show, I haven’t watch the previous seasons... will I be lost if I only watch Diana’s?

I actually do this when I’m at someone house. They won’t hear me purging. As soon as it comes out i flush. I do it like three times in a row. They probably just think I’m doing number 2 and pre flushing lol 😂.

It's weird I've never marked my hand and I always used my fingers...maybe it has to do it mouth size, like a have a big mouth or something lmao

If you can open your jaw fairly wide or bend your hand down so it misses the top the marks fade within a few hours. Russels is honestly hard to spot in photos, I only have one noticable scar and it'd be easy to pass off as from punching a wall

I purge laying down sometimes, is that weird? Lol

I do enjoy binging, I get excited when buying/making food and feel euphoria/giddiness while binging. I don't want to invalidate you though, people experience eds differently and I wanted to give you my perspective, that's all xx
