My 15 year old son (who has constitutional delayed puberty so is only 5 foot 2) started of restricting his eating a while ago and would only eat ‘clean’ foods. Which was fine… however it then progressed to restricted eating and obsession about food and his body image. He is on the waiting list for camhs for potential arfid, body dysmorphia and ocd. Things have escalated this last week. Yesterday I saw he had bruises all around his jaw and he said that he had been hitting his jaw with his phone because it’s fun and seemed quite embarrased. After speaking to others and then my son it turns out that he was trying to hard maxx? (Never heard of it until then). He’s basically been hitting his jaw in an effort to cause fractures to get a good jaw. I don’t really know what to do about it. He’s a very young immature 15 year old.
Anyone have any experience of this?
Holy shit. This is hilarious.
But, beyond that, this is the consequences of us going mainstream. This kid needs at least 3 surgeries + HGH + NTmaxxing to even be seen as human by others. Can't afford that = over. His cunt mother doesn't understand who shit the dating market is these days.
