New to the Eating Disorder Community in April 2020? Say hello & Meet Others Who Joined This Month!

@Traveller8

Hello! I haven't had much contact with anyone since quarantine, so sorry if I'm awkward! I'm Ava, I'm not currently in recovery (my history with treatment centers is wack man), but I am trying to connect more with others. I'm anorexic, but idk anymore I'm in a very weird place. And there we have it! Five sentences of me being incredibly awkward and ruining my chances of having people talk to me :).

Hello I'm James and I just joined this app :) I've had a pretty bad eating disorder for around 3 years now with anorexic and binge tendencies. Currently not in therapy (thanks to Coronavirus) but working with friends to start recovery. I'm really in the first stages and would love to meet others for support :))

Hi Amber here.

I have recently been diagnosed with bolemia and my parents have kicked me out of the house for it, saying that they will not have a broken child living under their roof. I am currently living with my aunt. Is this a normal reaction?!

Hope you all to be very active here,

Hello everyone. I have an eating disorder for about 15 years. I have bulimia with tendency to anorexia. I had a therapy in the past but never fully recovered. Because of some health problems i lost many pounds the last months and it was triggering my eating disorder. I am eating less and don't have an appetite, but I don't want to gain weight and to be honest, loose some more. I hope I can find support here and get out this unhealthy spirale.

Hello, I'm Kenni!

I've had an ED for almost 3 years. It started with just wanting to eat healthier and then I decided one day to not eat. I didn't think it was a big deal to not eat breakfast but then it turned into a meal a day and even then, I still feel awful afterwards. I often times wonder why I can't just be normal. Even if I eat normal and do my best not to think about it, I know I'm not normal. Some days I take a lot of pride in it, but most of the days I just want to be normal. I don't know why the way I am. Why do things like these happen to my perfectly normal and happy life? Does anyone else not even know why they have an ED?

Hi,

I'm so confused because this isn't who I am. But the longer I have anorexia the more it becomes part of me. I just want to be perfect so badly but I can't be perfect at anorexia and perfect at being healthy at the same time. I can't tell anyone what I really feel in person because my family, doctors, etc. Can't understand how I feel and why I can't just be logical. I feel frustrated that they tell me I'm smarter than this, like it's a matter of intellectual ability. So I've been trying to find online support from other people who suffer from the same illness.
