Brian and Justin deal with mental illness

[mrs-koki.livejournal.com]

I was wondering if there were any B/J fics where they deal with a different mental illness other than multiple personality disorder, like Schizophrenia for example. Like Justin has it and gets kicked out of deb's house cause she doesn't understand it or him and Brian sees this and takes him home with him to the loft. He then helps Justin to deal with it and such.  I don't think there are as I haven't run across any yet, but it never hurts to ask any way.


Not Found per say: What I was looking for wasn't found BUT I did get some good recs in the comments section. If there's more out there let me know! Thanks.

How does one have an eating disorder based restrictions? *kinda confused...honestly* I mean I know there's different types of eating disorders, I just don't really get that one. Eating disorders of any definition are hard to over come and it's hard to keep oneself from reverting back to it.


Happy ending for B/J? *puppy dog eyes*


I'll give it a read. Thank you. XD

You're welcome, hope you enjoy! By 'restriction', I mean restrictive eating (i.e. limiting food intake). Anorexia is a eating disorder based on hyper-restriction, as is orthorexia (what Brian has in this story). This is opposed to other EDs like compulsive overeating, or just to disordered eating. EDs are extremely difficult to recover from - they're like Black Holes. You feel like you're trapped in them and when you finally break out, you have to fight tooth and nail against yourself not to slide back into them.

But on that note, this story does have a happy, but realistic ending :-) Hope you'll enjoy it ;-)

Oh ok! Now I understand that one better, thanks for clearing it up. Exactly, I mean right now I have this urge to purge my system of my dinner I just ate. But since I don't really want to actually do that I'm telling my brain to knock it off with urges. I still can't believe I let my own shit get so bad that I developed two EDs one right after the other. Orz.


Yay! I love happy endings for B/J. XD
