Having a hard time dealing

Hi everyone! I’ve dealt with anorexia for over half my life. Although, I’ll always have food/ my weight in the back of my mind, I’ve been getting better until recently. I also suffer from social anxiety and when i have anxiety attacks i find myself not feeling the need to eat, which only intensifies my eating disorder more bc i then notice weight loss and it just becomes an addiction and vicious cycle again. Anyways, anyone else go through this too?

Have you had any help to recover - sounds like you need some support at the moment - so do approach your GP and see if you can get an ed referral. Part of my counselling around my ed looked at socialisation and really helped my confidence with this - perhaps you could get the same help - also ABC has a helpline so that's another possibility.
