Eating disorder at a higher weight
Does anyone feel extremely invalidated having “atypical” anorexia (or OSFED) at a higher weight or being overweight? I got out of residential not too long ago and before I went in I was restricting very severely for almost a year and I basically almost died because of the physical effects and mental effects of restriction but people were still congratulating me on weight loss. Even when I got out of residential my own dad was saying stuff like “don’t go back to what you were eating before” which was literal rice cakes and cottage cheese, but he still to this day thinks I was binging. I haven’t binged in almost a year and a half now. And my mom asked me the other day why I don’t go on a GLP. I literally JUST got out of residential 2 weeks ago. I’m already having trouble with recovery because there’s been a lapse between residential and php and I realized I can’t do this alone and all of this makes me not want to recover at all.
