Hey, there has been a couple requests to make a thread for all/general eating disorders. So I made this one, feel free to check in. Make sure to use TWs as needed when describing eating disorder behaviors. You can also post personal recovery wins. đ

Checking in with a couple myself.
Depending on my mind for the day, I either wonât eat, or eat too much.
Iâve still been trying to eat a meal a day, but honestly sometimes I forget to keep track and then I think back⊠Did I eat? Am I hungry? Have I eaten too much?
Thank you for this thread hun đđ«

Iâm mostly on the gratitude thread, my home thread đ

Made it through my daughters bday, but it was very difficult. I cried after she went to sleep, but woke up with a new gratitude that having a sober mom is the best gift I can give her, and myself. Two days disordered eating free, I am determined!

I went a few times, but it wasnât the right fit. I am thinking to try a different location, or try online and see if thatâs better.

Thanks for starting this thread.
TW restricting
Since losing weight by not binging and generally being careful I seem to have developed a fear of putting it back on. I have lost and gained so many times, I guess. The feeling of being full upsets me. Feeling hungry is the only time I can relax. I have been skipping any meals that I donât eat with family. And then eating only a little then, claiming I ate a lot earlier. I know this is not good, and will likely trigger binging later. And also is probably tanking my metabolism.

OA approach helps, eating 3 meals a day, abstaining from trigger foods like sugar and flour. Obsessing about is not healthy. The most important thing is to be healthy, mind and body.
