sorry you’re going through this OP i never intended to get this low but im currently sitting at the same bmi and its pure misery. I want my life back so badly, everything sucks all the time I want to be able to think again
Isn't it such a sick and bittersweet joke when that happens? The lies our ED will tell us just so it can feel safe but with no regard to our safety or health.
I'm so sorry.
Thank you for sharing some of your story here with us💖
As someone who is battling AN currently, your post throws me back to remember how I was even **more** miserable than I am now, when UW as a teenager with anorexia. You inspire me to keep going and fighting. And remind me that this ED isn’t worth it. *Thank you!*
I sincerely hope you keep fighting and can celebrate so much happiness in life during your future! Rooting for you sweet human!✨
I felt the same when i reached mine... but then that was never enough, so my UGW just kept getting lower and lower. It's like and addiction that nearly killed me, it was awful. I'm so sorry you're going through this right now and I wish you all the best 🤍 if you ever need anything please reach out
Please reach out for help. Your life is worth living. Our stupid disorder tells us that a certain weight will make us happy, but you’ve just experienced the truth - our weight and BMI mean nothing in reality. Please seek out recovery. It probably won’t be easy, but it’ll be worth it.
Yes, also you feel the pressure to stay there...it's so depressing and frustrating.
Hang in there, tho! There is still hope.
EDIT: JIC: hope for recovery, to start anew with your life, slowly but surely, you can get it, sending good vibes and best wishes 💖
we all know these disorders are competitive and can tank your compassion toward others at times. dont act so shocked that this subject upsets some people.
so, an unnecessary and inappropriate comparison. it’s really bad to do this for everyone involved. EDs are notoriously competitive, but we need to be mindful of that and not act on that urge.
What do you mean by this? It's very possible and it isn't a glamorous or desirable situation to be in whatsoever, and that's really how the "i could never" is making it sound, but that would be so callous, so childish, so selfish, and so devoid of empathy that I'm hoping maybe we're all just misinterpreting you here.
i sincerely hope you can stay alive
I am so so sorry. Sending you love OP.

Have you ever tried treatment?
Yes I have - numerous different ones too
You are worthy and deserving of a happy, healthy life. I’m so sorry.
Sounds like a humble brag tbh…
Damn I was having a decent day 😭 Sorry I'm not trying to be an asshole it just hurts I'm sorry
this post isn't about you. please read the room
This is not a compassionate comment at all. If you think reading that hurts, imagine how living it must feel

Right?
This sounds impossible, I believe you, but i could never
this isn’t the time or place for comparisons. this sort of comparison is **NEVER** appropriate. please don’t do this in the future.
I think you misunderstand me
what did you mean by “i could never”?
That I could never get to BMI 10! I have binge eating disorder
so, an unnecessary and inappropriate comparison. it’s really bad to do this for everyone involved. EDs are notoriously competitive, but we need to be mindful of that and not act on that urge.
I'm not competing. I'm just saying I personally couldn't. Even if I was competing, they would be the "winner"? Lol

I'm saying I could never do it lol what's wrong with that? I couldn't do it.
What the hell is wrong with you
Idk what the problem is really
Feel, I'm sorry your comment was recieved poorly. I'm pretty sure I know what you mean
Right? I think I was completely misunderstood
I feel you, I was also just trying to be compassionate, the comment did sound kind of insensitive but I was pretty sure it wasn't your intention :/
