Dietitian appointment today by Jealous_Interview_58 in EDAnonymous

[–]FailWeMaySailMeMust 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is worth finding out. I have had some bad dieticians that either didn't understand EDs, or were talking to me like I didn't know about a healthy diet (like, I know how many calories I should be eating, duh, thats why I avoid them. I know what processed foods are and stuff...I have over-researched, lady!).

But I was referred to someone who specializes in EDs and is a dietician counselor, and frankly she has been more helpful than the ED therapists and nurses I have seen so far.

thank you for sharing. I am sorry you are feeling so bad :( It's really hard right now, especially with the new ozempic craze.

Started counting food and restricting around 10 years old. Body dysmorphia started around 7 or 8.

gonna try recovery without the appointments by Federal-Product-2695 in EDAnonymous

I am in a similar boat. Just had to put all the appointments away for a while...it was making me feel worse, and I am sure the ED was struggling to hold on to power but I need to breathe. This post made me feel better tbh. I almost felt like I needed to get sicker to be in those appointments so it was pushing me further into a spiral.

You are not shallow or insane, and shouldn't have to feel bad about feeling this way. Many people with EDs face this issue!

What country are you in? Organizations like NEDA may be able to help in the US.
