  • Honestly if she were stranded in a island she would have a lifetime of food supplies
  • @umnasaif8875
    i got goosebumps when she was chewing that nail sandpaper thing 🤧
  • I actually have pica and sand is my worst craving. I understand what she’s going through and it’s hard. I hope she can get over this forever❤

    This is the only women in the world that can survive a starvation.
  • @gubbas6867
    She adds a whole new meaning to the word “sandwich”
  • @Impwerk
    On a medical note, this person probably has “pica”. It’s an iron deficiency that creates a craving for non-food items like sand, shale/sedimentary type rocks, erasers, and more. 😳

    "She want me to stop eatin' sand 😒" is my new favourite thing to say probably
  • @candace8412
    She's probably got tooth sensitivity from using the nail file and grinding her tooth enamel off.

    Is no one gonna talk about how the nail workers were just laughing while Brea and her bsf were talking about ✨secrets✨
  • @jennyneon

    for about 10 years (from when i was roughly 10 to 19) i was addicted to using lip balm. i remember i literally had to keep it with me at all times, constantly re applying it every 15-30 minutes. if i ever lost it everything i did would have to stop until i found it, because it was like torture when i needed it. of course thats definitely not as damaging as eating sand, but it was still a huge hinderance on my life. i actually had to sleep with a blanket wrapped around my mouth so that i could fall asleep without having to reach for the night stand all the time. eventually i made the decision to get off it, cold turkey, whatever it took. the first day was absolute torture, the second day was pretty bad but not as bad, and after that it became manageable. ive been 3 years sober from lip balm to this day, and i am so glad i broke the habit

    The gum thing almost made me go 😳. I just cant imagine crunchy gum.

    The way her sister "intervened" was soo caring. She did not shame her sister. It's so nice to see sisters being kind and compassionate to each other. Best wishes to both women.

    "I strongly recommend that you stop eating sand" is such a mood
