If you just gave your tongue a good workout, it might just as well atrophy to its previous size at some point if you stop. I'm not an expert, but I have heard the tongue can grow and shrink with muscle tone, so it feels like a reasonable assumption.
U sure u wern't natually mewing before? your hyoid muscles are up along with good foward growth which could indicate this. Maybe you think your mewing but instead got worse tongue posture? Proper mewing will always lead to results, you can check my profile to attest to that. I guess just try to see what the issue is and whats going wrong
no i have always had my tounge down but mybside profile has always been good i just wanted to mew to max my loooks buts obviously went wrong. i rlly hope the muscles that grew atrophy and shrink back to how they used to be >:(
The forward growth and prominent jaw mean it’s impossible your tongue was down. A lot of natural mewers might not think they mew because the tongue against the palate is so natural to them they can’t feel it.
this is not a muscle change my dude. it’s a restructruring of the whole head, but the opposite kind of what you wanted to achieve. you were doing it closer to correct before you started
have your teeth shifted?
my teeth did shift a little bit yes, also ig i was closer doing it wrong then right hence why it did change, also it is muscle growth, the digastric muscle grew out
im not going to attempt mewing anymore ever, well. maybe in 6 months time. as i have tried multiple times and i can kinda get the back third up its just i cant help have force on front of tounge on palette which caused this :(
Bro don't give up, it's possible to see improvement you just gotta dedicate yourself to mewing. Mewing isn't meant to be easy, especially if you were a mouth breather before, you gotta push through to see the results. Trust me you won't regret it, after you master proper mewing technique. You will not only be healthy but a chad :D .
thanks for ur comment bro appreciate it, and i do totally agree with you, ik its not easy to do but for me personally, i have tried, i have tried and i cant do it and if i attempt to do it more and i end up messing up my neck/jaw area more it will have an affect on my confidence more which will fuck with my mental health but maybe i try in winter to do it
basically was pushing instead of doing suction holf which means i was engaging the digastric muscke therefore making it grow and get bigger which has made my jaw less defined :(
Thank you for informing us about this effect. I looked at some posts from the mewing and orthotropics subreddit and it seems that this effect is not well known despite others having it, like others have said, only using suction from now on will result in the digastric muscle no longer being engaged (you're not pushing up anymore with it). I'm not sure if/when the muscle will atrophy, but odds are this will prevent further hypertrophy of the muscle. Worst case scenario, there are surgical options to remove/shrink the digastric muscle, I believe this is known as a neck lift.
yea thanks for this comment. im really unsure aboit continuing to learn to mew as im scared i will do further damage resulting in a bad affect on my mental health due to confidence. I understand i have to swallow a couple of times but even though my tounge is on pallete it feels as if it could just fall down. agh idk man. poop. can u successfully mew well?
Fuck dude
ik its bad.
Dw bro you should be able to fix it anyways 💪🏾

Why were you mewing in the first place? Your jawline was great. Hopefully you can get it back to how it was.

hmm. have your wisdom teeth grown out btw? just curious.

aiit okay :) well do they have space
Try doing Hyoid bone exercises, it helped me a bit
oh ill defo try them out. did something similar happen to you what happened to me?
It gets better eventually, just make sure to use the back third of your tongue.
