Don’t want to relapse

So I used to have anorexia, it really sucked and I didn’t tell anybody. I ended up kinda getting better on my own— I googled a ton of resources and stuff, and I diy-ed it. But now I’m sort of always perched on this ledge between being fine and relapsing. Whenever I hear people mention eating disorders, or people saying that they haven’t eaten/are limiting/don’t eat that much/are skinny/etc I immediately start to spiral and “get bad” again. Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening?

It sounds like a very difficult place to be.  I'm glad you've posted.  What did you do in the past that helped you to get a hold on your eating disorder?

I hope others who struggle with restricting will respond to you and let you know what has helped and can help with encouragement as well.  I know that because you were able to deal with it before, you can do this again, and get back in control.
