When I was 15 (2000), I was diagnosed with a mild eating disorder and then anorexia in 2001. I went from 61kg down to 43kg and ended up in an out patient treatment program in 2002. I was there for 6 months, left in 2003 because I wasn't apparantly ready to get better, however from 2003-2005, I sought of started working through a lot of the stuff (very rocky road and a lot of tears).
While I'm not as entranched in the illness as I used to be, I still struggle with a lot of things. I still wouldn't say I eat normally, but what is normal these days? I have had a few moments where I chose to try eating three meals a day, but I always end up reverting to my old ways of cutting out calories and eating as little as possible.
I feel constantly consumed by thoughts of wanting to lose more weight and restrict, but I don't see it as ED behaviour-I don't feel sick. Am I still suffering from an ED? I'm 5'2, 47kg; would really like to hear from any others going through a similar thing
