blueberry-salutations:the-fury-of-a-time-lord:thattransguy:thatsnothowitworks:suckinontoez:thatsnothowitworks:dysphorik:thatsnothowitworks:This is why you need to bind safely.  The damage in the first picture is not the result of binding over numerous years with a simple binder.  It’s the result of unsafe and irresponsible binding.  Bind safely.OH MY GOD I’M SHRIEKING THIS CAN’T FUCKING HAPPENIt most certainly can.  In stead of just saying BIND SAFELY you should explain the safe and in safe ways to bind.1. Bind using only an actual binder (make sure you measure and get the proper size), or tight-ish sports bra in a pinch.  You want something that compresses while still having give so that your lungs can expand.  2. Never use ace bandages/belts/tape/etc to bind.3. Do not sleep in your binder.4. Do not wear your binder for long periods of time.  I’ve seen 8 hours mentioned as the max amount of time.  Learn to read your body.  Some people cannot handle binding for even 8 hours but ignore the signs and injure themselves.5. Whenever you take your binder off give a few big coughs, this well help to break up any fluid that may have settled in your lungs.That’s all I can think of atm, but I think I’ve covered the basics.I’m not tagging this for followers I just want all of you that bind hard to be careful. FUCKING REBLOG THE SHIT OUT OF THISwhen i was young and stupid, I used duct tape to bind. NEVER EVER DO THIS CHILDREN. i couldn’t breathe, i could barely move, it cut into me so hard that sometimes i bled, it was so hot i got blisters, i would sometimes cry because of how much pain i was in, and it left my breasts numb in some places because of how tight it was. It killed nerve endings in my chest.PLEASE. PLEEEEEAAAAAASE SPREAD THE WORD. PRACTICE SAFE BINDING METHODS.Also:6. Never do intense physical exercise in your binder.7. I’ve heard 15 hours at the very maximum actually, but whatever works for your body.8. NEVER bind with a bandeau-type binder. THEY ARE NOT SAFE9. Usually, a binder under $30 isn’t going to be quality. gc2b.co is a great place to get binders, especially if you’re in the U.S. I’ve heard underworks isn’t too bad either, but gc2b generally has better reviews and binds better. If you can’t afford/can’t get a binder safely, check out programs in your area. In a Bind is great if you’re in the U.S.10. If you have breasts larger than a C cup, get a full tank top. It will make sure you have full coverage. -- source link
