Eating Disorder Comfort - Tumblr Posts

Hey I had a super spook moment yesterday and almost like died bc of my bulimia.

Basically my head hurt so bad and I was rlly nauseous even tho I had like zero food in my system. And I almost passed out because the vertigo I had was so strong.

Can I get a crumb of comfort from my favorite Haikyuu boys?

May I ask for Suga, Noya or Oikawa comforting their friend/ s/o who had an episode like this?

Thank you for reading this! :)

Pls make sure you’re eating as much as you can! It’s not fun to be where I was! Drinking water helps lots too.

Have a good day xx

hi, love. i’d like to apologise for the reply that took me months to get out, but i do hope you’ve been doing good and handling everything okay. 

I chose Oikawa for this - if you want a part 2 with the others, feel free to ask :) oh and you make this gender-specific, so i just went with gender neutral, but oikawa calls the reader some pet-names such as “dear”.

NOTE: I’m extremely sorry if I got any of the information regarding this eating disorder wrong - since I am not very familiar with this topic, I am writing based off of information I could gather online!

you were home alone when your head started to hurt

at first, you didn’t think anything of it

you hoped it was just a headache caused by staring at your laptop screen for too long 

but then you started to feel nauseous 

really nauseous

you tried shrugging it off, hopelessly attempting to distract yourself by turning on the tv, but the many movements on the screen and sounds only amplified the pounding feeling in your head 

you decided against watching tv and tried getting up, your goal being the kitchen to get a glass of water - and maybe a wet rag to place on your forehead and eyes

keyword tried

as soon as you stood up, your vision clouded black and you collapsed onto your knees, clutching your head in your hands and closing your eyes tightly

it took some time before you could gather yourself, ending up stumbling into the bathroom half-conscious when you felt the need to throw up

you weren’t able to throw up though, stomach empty of any contents

as you were sitting on the bathroom floor and fighting not to fall unconscious,  it totally slipped your mind that you were meant to meet up with oikawa today

now, oikawa was your long-term boyfriend, whom you told everything

it was inevitable that he’d find out about your disorder sooner or later, so you had told him quite early on in the relationship

when he heard, he immediately was understanding of your situation and started informing himself on the topic almost immediately

you were insanely grateful l for that

he never pressured you into anything, but was by your side whenever you needed support

well anyways

when oikawa had been waiting for 20 minutes, he didn’t think of anything yet, simply sending a text message

oikawa, 6:50pm: hey baby, are you arriving soon? it’s kind of cold D:

oikawa, 7:07pm: :(

oikawa, 7:20pm: well now you’ve got me kind of worried. if you don’t reply soon i’m coming to your place

when you still failed to reply, he frowned and started making his way over to your place

he didn’t bother ringing the doorbell, instead pulling out the spare key you  had given him for emergencies 

(he used it for surprise visits more often than emergencies anyway)

“y/n?”

he called out your name as soon as he stepped into the apartment

he got even more worried when no sound was heard in response

he checked the kitchen first, then your bedroom, before he heard a tiny sniffle from the bathroom

he instantly walked inside

a soft gasp left his lips as his eyes met your frame - looking vulnerable

you were sat besides the toilet, knees pulled up to your chest and hands clutching your head, tears streaming down your cheeks

“oh my, dear, what happened to you?”

you finally noticed your boyfriends presence, ripping open your eyes to look at him, regretting that decision when the harsh overhead-lightning did no good for your headache

he, obviously, took note of that and turned off the light, the room still slightly illuminated by the hallway

“i’m not feeling too well..” you managed to speak up

that made oikawa let out a little huff, crouching down beside you

“i can see that, love. do you think you can stand up for me?”

he reached out a hand, which you grabbed onto and attempted to get up, but again, your vision clouded black and you collapsed, knees feeling like jelly

your boyfriend’s eyes widened and he hurried to catch you, picking you up like a toddler - also using this chance to hug you to his chest

“shh, i’m here now, baby. have you eaten anything today?”

he felt you shake your head, responding with a nod, carrying you to your bedroom, softly placing you down on the soft mattress

as he was adjusting your head to lay on your pillow, he started speaking, “that’s okay, i’m going to go grab you something light to eat, and then you can rest, alright?”

he ignored the way you scrunched up your nose at the mention of food,  instead patiently waiting for you to verbally respond

“mhm, alright...”

he pecked your forehead, pulling your blanket over you and leaving the room, walking to the kitchen

he made quick work of prepping a meal - a vegetable broth

as soon as said broth was done, he walked back into your room holding the bowl

you awoke from your mini-nap, eyes shifting to look at your boyfriend

he greeted you with a light smile, moving to sit beside you

he handed you the bowl of broth and you let out a soft sigh but nonetheless started eating, knowing he’d bug you until you ate anyway

when you were finished eating, he patted your head lightly and nodded 

“i’m proud of you, love. now get some rest.”

he took the bowl from you and placed it on your bedside table, pulling you closer to him and engulfing you in a hug 

“thank you, for helping me” 

you mumbled into his chest and he hummed

“don’t thank me, i’m always here to help”

with those words, you succumbed into sleep, exhausted from the pain you endured all day, yet content, knowing you had such a great person by your side

a/n: again, apologies for the time this took! i hope this drabble could fulfill your expectations.
