Fear of Recovery
I am anorexic, but my current weight, bmi, and body fat percentage are actually very healthy right now. I am afraid of gaining weight in recovery. Has anyone had a similar experience, or can anyone give me a bit of insight on it?
I had a similar thing compared to my depression, there was a point where I didn't want to get better but I just gave it time and somehow worked out.

Hey,
you don't have to be at a specific weight to have anorexia. Many people struggle with anorexia and still have what is considered a "normal weight." If your doctor/therapist tells you to eat more, then perhaps you could consider doing that. Anorexia recovery has less to do with weight gain and more to do with feeling energized, happier, satisfied.
I hope that helped!
