    We’re not all health food and exercise obsessed just because we don’t consume animal products.

    Even the fattest vegans are likely healthier than their equivalently sized meat and dairy consuming counterparts though as processed animal products are carcinogens.

    I’ve seen too many threads about obese pets where people with obese pets make excuses for their abuse and normalise their behaviour amongst themselves.

    Pointing out ‘the obvious’ and calling it abuse whenever I see these threads, has become part of how I interact online and something I appreciate when I see others do it.

    I genuinely didn’t realise that the users here were so in agreement with this viewpoint as to find it condescending to see it pointed out. This is really nice to hear, despite the downvotes.

    I don’t understand why you’re mad at me for contributing to this discussion with something relevant to this topic.

    I didn’t assume anything negative about the person I replied to.

    You however are clearly assuming negative stuff about me and have gotten upset with me over these assumptions.

    (Edited for spelling/grammar as my phone keyboard updated into something stupid recently and adds/miscorrects random letters/words now)

    Oh hey, I’m vegan too! High five for being ethical and eating well.

    I have the extra bendy with some unstable joints condition too, (that the doctor wouldn’t diagnose as Ehlers-Danlos because it’s too popular on ticktock with young women right now, despite my being in my mid thirties and I quote, “impressively flexible, does that hurt?”…) but I’d not considered rheumatism yet. Thank you for this information.

    I though I was dealing with autism burnout for years at first but it’s been nearly 8 now since it hit, and for most of that all I had the energy for was weekly food prep and showers, so changing my diet was the easiest thing to try to see if it would help. Cutting out dairy was a huge improvement for energy and wheat has been on par with that when nothing else- carbs, fodmap, there were others my memory still sucks, was.

    Ok I’m starting to feel weird talking about myself so much on the internet. It was nice to find another going through similar. I’m sending you well wishes for energy on your adventures and for luck with doctors.




  • I’m in a similar place with chronic fatigue and realising how much better I feel without wheat. Not quite at the stage to be going outside on adventures again yet, but it’s still pretty wild how much of a difference it’s made.

    That head full of cotton wool brain fog and numbness in my body that I was experiencing before is gone, and the brain fog I still have is just the heavy tired kind that isn’t anywhere as disabling. My whole body feels so much lighter and clearer now.

    And the only thing that’s changed in the last few months is removing wheat from my diet.

    So many people are reporting similar experiences in regards to this too, I think we’ve really fucked up something agriculture related (amongst everything else) what with all the poor soil management, microplastics and pollution.
