Ever since adolescence I've been having a weird attitude to food. Either I overeat or I starve myself. Right now I am on an overeating phase, and I don't know if I have the energy to muster myself towards eating less, because I know where I will end up.
I have trichotillomania, schizotypal p.d., and depression. I have very low impulse control, and I do very easily get unhealthy habits. I have been struggling against trichotillomania for many years, and if you have it you will now how difficult it is. It is like kicking a drug addiction. Just as difficult as kicking my eating disorder.
I don't want to spend the rest of my years carefully planning what I eat, because it will turn into an obsession, and spin out of control. All I want is a carefree attitude to food. Even though I don't have a diagnosis, answer the question as if it were: "is it possible for someone with an eating disorder to ever get a normal attitude to food again?"
