My nurses were hopeless and clueless ; they had to consult a chart for the "correct" weight for my height ! Weighed naked each morning by a skeletally skinny nurse,, wasn't "allowed" to even do crosswords because "you might burn calories" !!

Need to do it in three or six months and I’m pretty scared

Hey man can you answer my question real quick i don’t know if you experience this but my body changed after surgery my ribs and my head tilted my ribs hurt a lot if I stand up for too long when will that go away I can’t go outside at all it hurts so bad pleas answer so I know a time frame

In France, when I was in hospital I got to decide if I wanted to know my weight or not !! So sorry for your terrible inpatient treatment, I relate to a lot but that place you are describing seems to be so horrible, like how can that be « legal » for a mental hospital to do those things, I can’t even understand how it can be still going on like this…

Unfortunately a mental health unit in a hospital doesn’t help you like you truly needed. If you ever need to be hospitalized again I beg you to find a specialized eating disorder mental health unit or hospital. You deserve a true place to heal.

You are so brave❤. My son will have the surgery too. How many days were you in hospital?

this happened to me earlier this year i was admitted to a psychiatric unit for the 3rd time & they told me “we can’t help you with your ED, we’re here to make sure you don’t harm yourself” and they even said they wouldn’t stop me from p.urging either (which i didn’t bc i was going through psychosis) it was a horrible experience for me and i never want to go back there while struggling with a mental illness with the highest mortality rate!

i’ve been on a waiting list for surgery for a year and this video was so helpful and comforting yet made me cry

The quotes are unbelievable.. wow.. thats horrible

Oh my god.. this is insane!! I cant believe this type of treatment is still happening in this day

Thank you. That's all I can manage to say. Wait...I validate, hear and understand. Thank you.

What all were you hooked up to after

Parents must really love cars to name you after two of them.

Hi hi I had scoliosis surgery two months ago, too.

What a brave girl

You are so calming, thank you for the inspiration <3

Hi

Hi

This has been a great help! I am facing scoliosis surgery! I’m a bit older than you tho but I don’t think age matters! You did so well and I hope that after the year you’ve been through you are much better!! Thank you!

How old were you when you had this surgery and what is stuck in your throat after surgery?

I had this in October 2020 for the people see this later and I’m doing good

I will have my surgery January 5, 2021. I so happy to see you walking

How far are you able to bend and what cant you do?

wow, they should not have treated you that way as professionals in the mental health field. I'm so sorry that happened to you.

Great video! And such a lovely name, think weight gain comes with age too, but should never be looked down on or a negative look to people. You need more videos!! :)

Best video ❤️

You're an inspiration for me! Thank you so much💖

you are so strong, i couldn’t be more proud of you! I definitely have noticed same things, it’s so amazing when food isn’t the only thing on my mind anymore and i can actually enjoy doing other stuff. Keep going 💛

Thank you soooooo much for this video!! ~Love, your friend Vicky ;)

YAAASS i missed you while u were gone, ur literally like an idol to me and you inspire me so much! I love u💖

Yay thank you for posting another video, they're very helpful and inspirational! Glad to see you back here and on Instagram, but especially happy to hear you're taking time to focus and better understand yourself!!

hey! i’m getting spinal fusion in 1-2 months and ik this sounds stupid but i’m more nervous for all the needles/IV’s than the actual surgery🥺 i’m terrified of needles, are there many!

you’re so beautiful and strong!! so glad to see you still here❤️❤️❤️❤️

i’m scared of the feeling when i stand up i’m about to fall when i get it done

corona virus has ruined my date for surgery!

i’m not looking forward to the moment i’m in that horrible gown going into a cold room🥺but i’m so excited as well!

Yoo I'm getting spinal surgery too

Very interesting video!! I´m operated too and I share my experience with the community through poetry. I think that it´s very important to share our experiences to help others :)

I was able to see my weight at an eating disorder unit, it was an adult hospital (even tho I’m 16) and they didn’t care for mental health at all, they specifically said it’s not important in the refeeding process so they wouldn’t care if you saw your weight or not, only some nurses realised how detremiental it could be and for girls who weren’t able to see their weights without breaking down would write it in their notes, loved the video btw xx

I can definitely relate to basically everything you say. my inpatient experiences were pretty much the same: unprofessional nurses, and that glamorizing... missing it. Which is stupid because it was always horrible. But it was “escaping” the real world for sure. But yeah, most of the healing really happens at home. Stay strong angel x

having fusion in just under two months, your video helped a lot thank you so much

I’m so....UM....glad....UM....you shared your story. UM...you are so strong.

You honestly are amazing Porsche ❤️ I’m sorry that you’re experience wasn’t the best, but from that I can see how much you’ve grown as a person and just how strong YOU are. Not your disorder. Sharing your experience, for me, reassured me of a few things that I didn’t think others experienced, so thank you. Keep up the amazing work, bumps included. Love you lots and I know that so many people will agree when I say you really are an amazing, wonderful and kind person. ❤️❤️

Actually in Germany at least it’s common to know your weight when in inpatient. Sometimes they even force you to look at the scale.. Also you said so true things at the end, oh my god you spoke my thoughts about romanizing inpatient.. It’s also a really good video and I’m sorry you had to go through this.. Love you, stay strong 💪🏻❤️

Yes Porsche!! I’m so so proud of you for pushing through and fighting!!! And btw I relate to those breakdowns so much 😅 like those exact thought patterns!

Love you! So proud of how hard you’re working. Keep going. You’re in my thoughts often x

You are SO STRONG! Thank you for being such an inspiration!

you’re so strong Porsche ❤️ I also think all in is the way to go. Keep going!

You’re so brave for posting this! You’re going to help so many people (including me) to not feel so alone 💖 I feel the same thoughts you were talking about and I cannot explain how comforting it is to see that someone else has the same thoughts, although I wish you didn’t have to feel the same way 😣 but it just shows how devastating that “sick enough” attitude is, because I’m sitting here thinking ‘awww Porsche you were sick enough you are deserving of recovery’ but I have the same thoughts as you, so it helps show me that I can recover no matter what the thoughts are saying 💖

You make me so proud Porsche❤️❤️
