Cycling through different ED's?
Hi,
I'm new to online forums but came across this app hoping to meet people with similar experiences to feel not so alone.
Anyway, I have had severe eating disorders most of my life. As a child I was very overweight and consistently felt not enough because of it. As I grew older eating too much turn to not eating at all. This turned in bulimia with my weight ranging from 200+ and dropping to 100, all within a years time. This cycle has been happening for years. I have been hospitalized and officially diagnosed with Anorexia(purging type and non purge), bulimia(laxative purge) and EDNOS. I even suffered some related issues with my pregnancy. Every day I feel like my life is dictated by numbers, calories and the scale.
Most people think it only effects teens but I'm 26. And I see no end insight.
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one with this cycle. Do any of you feel this way?
I feel the same way. I'm having a rough time lately, and my eating disorder looks very different. It evolves into something different every time. It's really frustrating!
