For my next roommate, it would be great to have someone that doesn’t make themselves throw up. I am so tired of listening to that 24/7. She does it so loudly too. You have a therapist. Talk to them about it. That’s what you pay them to do.

I get it’s hard to listen to that, but your roommate doesn’t want to be purging either, and probably already feels guilty. She’s sick with an eating disorder and probably could use your support rather than judgement.

No I’m not. This is actually a very rational thing to be annoyed at. No one wants to hear you loudly make yourself throw up every single day. Put yourself in someone else’s shoes for a change and try again.

I can’t be empathetic 24/7. I’m only human. Especially for those of us that work in care taking roles, don’t tell me how to feel. Take ownership for your own body and well being. There comes a time to where you need to take care of yourself. I’m tired of waking up nauseous because my roommate keeps making herself vomit. She literally has a therapist. She can easily just talk about her issues. I’m allowed to be annoyed. I am not required to be nice all the time. I am not a fucking robot.

You’re the problem for trying to police people’s feelings when roommates are being fucking disgusting. Silence the cop in your head. Grow up #2 hope that helps!

I’m not the problem, and I’m not policing anyone. This is called Roommate Rants. I’m allowed to rant about this. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to be here. Keep scrolling and move on. I don’t have to be cool with listening to my roommate loudly vomit multiple times a day. She has a fucking therapist and it’s her responsibility to take care of her own mental health because she has the supports in place for this. Stop being a cop and do something productive with your life. Go away bitch

No it’s not. Everyone should take care of their mental health. That shouldn’t be an unpopular opinion. I’m also saying this as someone that used to have an eating disorder.
