*raises hand* fwiw I actually found your comment interesting.

(The only thing I've ever known an anorexic to be truly distressed by (though that might be considered a strssor rather than a trigger) is "having to sit by or talk to a fat person."

ED anon is sooooo anon

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, not quite anorexic but definitely recovering from an eating disorder of the starve-yourself-to-death variety (which is what a LOT of people mistake anorexia for), and I get stressed (but not triggered!) by certain foods, certain clothes, and people being JERKS to fat people.

I don't have eating disorder triggers, because the eating disorder wasn't the primary catalyst for trauma in my life. (Thankfully, people who cared about me intervened before I really, really made myself irrevocably sick.) Sure, shitty things happened, but I tend to see trauma as a baseball bat to the head, not a slow, chronic grinding with sand paper, and the latter is the ED for me.

If anything, the ED was my RESPONSE to certain triggers, because it'd numb emotions and calm me down, though in an extremely dangerous way.

Re: ED anon is sooooo anon

*hugs* thank you for sharing, ED anon. (Please be assured I'm entirely sincere here: I personally haven't had very much exposure to people with eating disorders, so I'm always grateful to understand more about it (so as to try not to be an inadvertent jerk.)

I've always remembered the thing I mentioned because it was told to me by a zaftig friend years ago who had an anorexic colleague who (sadly) seemed to literally be repulsed by overweight people.
