#ARFID
Does anyone know of any recipe books or forums for #supertasters? Are you a supertaster? I'm unable to find much in the way of resources. I'm considering trying to create a #recipe swap for supertasters so we can share tried and true recipes for the holidays. Anyone else interested? #AskFedi #AskFediverse #ARFID #SPD #SensoryProcessingSensitivity

My kid has ARFID. This means he can only eat very few things. My wife created a pancake recipe that he like and that provides him with important nutrients.
A few weeks ago I asked her to write it down just in case something happens to her. I case she dies I want to be able to keep him alive. It's better to be prepared.
My son shared this with me, it’s him to a ‘T’.
Who knew it had a name?! 🤷♂️
“Kitty struggles with Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder!”
...#diabetes, food #allergies, #arfid (food aversion), gastrointestinal issues, specialized #diets, and #food prefs are not limited to the privileged...yet these needs are dismissed as invalid concerns for us who are "poor" or #homeless.
...also, little to no consideration is given for needs of hot or prepared meals to soothe right now hunger, or even a simple awarness that we lack access to cook or safely store items.
*why hand out frozen chickens when lighting a fire would get us arrested?*
Supplements are exactly that, things that supplement our diet! When we can't get all the nutrition we need from what we eat, for whatever reason, they can make a big difference to our overall wellbeing.
If you already have compromised health it's worth double checking with your doctor or other health care provider before taking anything new, just to be safe. But, otherwise, grab that multivitamin if you damn well need it!
And, if people who know nothing about you and your life pass comment on what you eat or how you bring nutrition into your life, tell them to get fucked.

My fellow ARFID sufferers and other food restricted souls...
It is not wrong, cheating, or giving in to take a freaking multivitamin!
Yeah, sure, in an ideal world, we'd get all the nutrition we need from a wide and varied diet. But for many of us, that may have to remain a goal we keep working towards. In the meantime, if you can access/afford them, take a damn multivitamin!

My loved one is sick, please help.
I'm posting a link to an Amazon wish list for a loved one who has been diagnosed with failure to thrive. The problem now is that Medicaid insurance isn't paying for Kate Farms, the only liquid nutrition that the child can stomach. The child vomited up the ensure because it's got dairy and they're allergic to dairy.
I been making the shakes from scratch from a protein powder that is safe for them, and coconut milk. It is tolerated much better. I'm doing this while I'm fighting insurance, to avoid hospitalization. I am running out of money to fund this. If anyone can circulate or buy anything from this list, that would help so much. I can feel the approval on the horizon, it will probably take another week or two to go through and then ship.
ALSO: I'm open to suggestions if there is a better protein shake powder out there for teens! This was the only one we could find without sugar, peanuts, wheat, dairy, eggs, or yeast.

Autistic Self Compassion can look like...
Muttering "Fed is best. Fed is best. Fed is best" to yourself as you force yourself to eat literally anything you can tolerate, to combat the shame.

I remember a mom sitting in my clinic, her face etched with worry. "He just… won't eat," she’d said, her voice barely a whisper. "It’s not just being fussy, Doctor. #ARFID #cognitivebehavioraltherapy #eatingdisorder #malnutrition #pickyeating

@coppercrush LOVE this! I can't stand eating mushrooms (#ARFID sucks!), but fungi are sooooo cool! All those colours are amazing 😍
I've said it before, and undoubtedly will again, #ARFID SUCKS.
It's one of the hardest parts of autism for me, often very disabling. Days when I just CAN'T eat. Food turns to wormy clay in my mouth, even safe foods seem scary.
It's really messed up.
