What a way to contradict yourself. It is a lot more than simple diet that affects anyone's weight whether surplus or deficit. If you understand the pressures of someone's decision either way, then you certainly know that the determinant of whether or not someone is "naturally" large have a lot less to do with their food intake and a lot more to do with where they live, the policy that affects their daily life, their income, hereditary conditions and other genetic causes, and a multitude of other marginalizations or circumstances.

Also "religion" doesn't mean just one. Not all religions view gluttony as a sin.

You are not the center of the universe or have any of the answers. Get a grip.

I have serious doubts it's satire. Yikes.

It's mostly that many people don't know how to do it. It's just like any other sexual encounter. It requires discussion, consent, tastes, preferences, etc. And also learning that as you get older, your understanding of it will change.

I still RP, but only selectively. It's a LOT of fun to create an experience with someone that you literally *cannot* create in real life (I've personally never been a fan of "real life" style RPs)

I have a degree in recreation—feel free to ignore those who would shame you for exploring your sexuality. Humans *require* play and leisure. Being secure enough in yourself to understand your own kinks, desires, fantasies, and activities means that there will likely be some growing pains.

So, no, you are not "too old" for RP. Hell, a lot of people RP in the physical bedroom. BDSM scenes conducted live are literal RP.

It just means that you're actually maturing and learning to understand that with that, things may change.

Hiccupx has it right. The way the platform is built means you have to kind of experiment with strategy, and adjust that strategy as you build an audience. I don't have many stories here, this just has to do with my creative output in general recently, but I am going to be ramping it up this year considerably. However the strategy in which I publish differs based on which platform.

There are some stories I personally will probably be making exclusive and premium here, but not all of my mine are going to fit the format of this platform so it has to be written for it because it has limitations.


Your question really depends on the type of story, your format, knowing the platform, knowing the audience, and as others have said knowing that the audience changes based on which platform you're on. "Going wide" which means having your work available in multiple places is really going to be key overall.

If you have a very long story, as you said If you're looking at a 60,000 word novel, I'm not even sure I would post that here at all because of the way the platform is built. It's really just not meant for long-form stories and I tend to not read them because it's just not easy to consume it. There are some whose stories I did decide to give a shot in a fell into it and so I'll read when there's an update, but I just don't click with reading long form ones here. DeviantArt and AO3 are waaaaay better for that.

Oh that might be a fun idea! I've had a bit of a feedist zombie apocalypse story bouncing in my head recently and something like this would be a nice complement or backstory!

If you're in a relationship as a feeder and you're "frustrated" that the other partner isn't getting fatter, you are not in a relationship. You are objectifying them. There are no alternatives.

The whole point of being in a relationship with someone, whether or not it includes feedism, is to love them as they are. You do not get to be frustrated by how another person's body does or does not change.

If it was the other way - expecting the partner to lose weight - everyone would see the problem for what it is.

You cannot have a relationship with feedism where one partner is not a feedist. If your partner isn't into it, that's the end of the discussion. If you cannot love them without their gaining, then you do not love them.

Also, feedism *does not* mutually include gaining. The gaining and feeding, while clearly related, are not the same thing, regardless of how commonly shared they are.

I am a non-gaining feedee. This means I enjoy the act of being fed and sometimes a lot of kinky fun with it, but I am not going to gain. If I ever, for one second, felt my partner pressure me to gain, the relationship ends on the spot. No questions.

I'm a non-gaining feedee. This means I like the act of feeding as a fun kink sometimes, but I don't have any interest in gaining. Too many people here see everything in absolutes with little room for nuance or subjectivity.

Feedism and FA are not the same thing, they just have a lot of overlap. There are also just belly fetishists in general, and typically you'll find those in more body expansion/preg kink circles (even if the expansion part isn't their thing).

No one said they weren't. What was said was that they ARE medically necessary for some people. The literal effect of medical amphetamines (which are not the same as recreational methamphetamine) for those who actually need them is vastly different than those who are actual drug-seekers. We know this for medical fact. My prescription is for ADHD which is more or less caused by (or presumed to be) deficincies in dopamine and norepinephrine. Medical amphetamines solve that problem.

Addiction is a disease often dependent on factors such as our brain chemicals. So is ADHD, and so are sleep disorders like OP discussed. No two brains are the same. Therefore, what people respond to and may be inclined to become dependent on vary wildly from person to person.

That is WHY Adderall is so heavily controlled. Because of people like you who literally do not know what they're talking about.

These are basic medical facts, and it is not your place to come trauma dump on a woman seeking advice about her appetite because she's prescribed a medication that is otherwise affecting her positively with intended results *as it was designed to do*

The reason every junkie you know started on those is because they were not prescribed and because they were already addicts and they would have gotten hooked on anything stimulating.

Her question was not whether or not she should stay on the medication it was how does she manage her appetite.

I was already in the habit of tracking macros and having set-ish meal/snack times before I started Adderall and that helped me maintain even just my break-even intake. It took a few weeks for the appetite suppression to kick in and now that it has I'm glad I had that habit before, because I am able to just check and be like "Oh, damn, definitely haven't had enough x today" and have a snack even if I'm not hungry.

I'd recommend focusing on just your maintenance levels first. Adderall didn't just change my overall appetite (desire for food) but also hunger signals (need for food) so I learned that I still need to eat even if I'm not physically hungry. Figure out what just makes you comfortable. Don't force yourself to stuff/overeat. Get a handle on that, find the rhythm, then focus on increasing your macros again.

For me personally, the moment I eat outside of my regular times is when my appetite goes to shit. My appetite functions MUCh better if I stick to mealtimes and overall macro consistency.

FWIW I've been on 10mg XR for about 90 days and I haven't really lost any weight. A few pounds perhaps but I don't really count anything +/- 5lbs
