TW: disordered eating

(Anonymous) 2021-03-23 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
My doctors desperately want me to lose weight. I weigh a LOT. But I've lost ten pounds in two weeks. My secret? I'm just not hungry so I don't eat. My stomach growls from time to time but I just don't ... want any food. I know I need to tell someone about this but I'm afraid they won't care because I'm actually losing weight finally, which is all they care about.

Ugh. I was anorexic when my mom passed away and now with COVID and my dear granny passing away everything came back. I know it all too well - the lack of appetite and the way people are glad you're not overweight anymore until it's deemed too much because fuckers won't stop controlling not only their own weight but also other people's.

It's all very annoying. Forcing myself to have a meal a day at least, though, because I have to go out as I am a * essential worker and could die from it.

I've been forcing myself to eat at least once every two days. But only something that's barely a meal, like a box of mashed potatoes and some cheezits. Not a meal. But it's what keeps me going. It makes the doctors happy. Is this anorexia? I don't even know what to call it besides a total aversion to food.

AYRT yeah if it gets to a pathological level. In my case when I feel in despair I don't want to eat anymore and end up losing a few dozen pounds. Anorexia nervosa often just pairs that with "well, but people seem to appreciate me better like this so whatever" and the high that you get on a physiological level that helps masking the sorrow and all that. It's not that bad at first if it's just losing extra weight (though yes there's an imbalance of fat/proteins etc.) but it can get to a pathological level so be careful.
