My name is Emma, i go through all of this, I'm diagnosed anorexia nervosa. It's been over 20yrs since it started, we don't recover, we just get times where we delude ourselves and end up relapsing. I'm a 37yo woman, 4 kids and last year, I almost died due to all mine. I hit 6st, I have pernicious aneamia quite severely, can only intake liquid food because ei won't eat if I just see the food on a plate because even a child's meal to me, it's like being in the edge of a cliff. I've had hair fall out, teeth snapped so now I have full dentures, I rely on 70 tablets and morphine a day to function with my health. Please treat food like its your medicine because of you don't, you medicine become exactly that.... Your food. It was a quote id heard before, and it really hits home for people like me when the damage is done and we can't change that, it gives those in early illness a chance to fight against the disease. I've lost many freinds I'd made in hospital through things like cancer, ed's etc.
I think Cheryl has the most interesting character in the show, her life as a kid was probably so lonely with just his brother on her side. Her life was not so normal ever since.
i dont feel valid, i struggle with these thoughts alot but it stays for months and then fades, i sometimes skip and only eat dinner but sometimes i hace a snack latr and i dont feel like im sick enough to actully have an ed and it kills
i get what you mean but remember that an ed is a mental disorder, and it starts somewhere before it gets "bad enough". so take care of yourself and don't let these thoughts dictate how you live
I feel like it’s hard in general the thoughts are where it starts I think at least it’s hard to follow through in the beginning but as time passes it gets easier to want to skip meals and that’s scary I’ve never been diagnosed with an ED but I might have one based on my friend that has had it told me. That’s nothing I’m proud of I can go 4 days no food on the fifth day I eat but I throw it up later and that repeats on a cycle but my bones don’t show I don’t feel sick enough either
i remember watching these years ago when i was sick. i hope that someday u will realise that u ARE sick enough to start recovery, that nothing is worth treating ur mind and body with hatred that u would never treat anyone else with. u deserve more than this, u deserve to be on ur own side. please start recovery. i’m on ur side.
The most frustrating of anorexia is when the stupid people say things like: -Well, you can't leave to eat -If don't eat you can't be sick The people don't understand nothing about eating disorder, NOTHING!!!!! I hate this shit because I'm anorexic and the people used to tell things like that. I know I know 🙅🏻♀️✖️NO EAT✖️🙅🏻♀️ IS BAD!!!! I CAN DIE!!! Everybody knows but... Isn't easier like the people think
