[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 340218, member: 3907"] Alyssa, these two statements leapt out at me, because when I was fighting the worst of my eating demons I could have said those very things. In addition to the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), the other big parallel that eating disorders have is with addiction. It's like you're addicted to starving, and you end up with a lot of the same behaviour. In a way, that's what makes anorexia such a tough thing. You can't just give up food. You need it. So you have to learn...what makes you want to starve, what is the hunger that can't be sated that makes you want to starve the rest of you. Once you have the answer to that question, then you can heal. I know what the answer is for me...yours might be the same, yours might be something else. PM me if you want to talk about this further.
