Yes that's correct, I'm EDNOS (Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified). I'm not currently seeking medical help/advice. I am going to talk to my counsellor about it though.PurpleDays said:Eating. Disorder. Not. Otherwise. Specified, Broken Doll?
Yeahh. I'm an ex ana/mia, so I can relate. And when I say ex, I kinda mean... current... every other day, like.
Eugh. Mirrors are the worst thing ever.
Do you see anyone for it? I've been on a waiting list for NINE MONTHS.
I don't want to tell my doctor.Sean said:Wikipedia'ing right now.
Eating disorder not otherwise specified, I see .
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about eating disorders at this particular moment to be much help.
I would suggest that you should be honest with your doctor, just tell him everything. I understand that it could be difficult, but I think it would be for the best. He can help you .
At the least, talk with someone about it. .
Take care.
I don't want to. I lie as best as I can when I go to see doctors, tell them I'm eating fine, say my weight has always been roughly such and such weight and so on...cheaptrickfan said:Broken-Doll, I agree with Sean. As I am sure you know, just hitting the weight range that your doctor considers to be healthy for you is the smallest hurdle - the largest and most difficult issue of an ED is still the psychological component, getting over how we interpret what we see in the mirror.

Broken_Doll said:@ Sean: I have an appointment with my counsellor in a few days, I plan on just telling her everything since it's confidential.
I don't think I want to 'get better' right now, I don't want to be left bare when if it gets taken away from me because then I'll be forced to face up to life. Something like that anyway. I guess in some ways it is a coping mechanism, albeit a very bad one but all the same I cling to it because I feel like it's the only thing I've got right now. In other words, I feel that if I didn't do the things I do, I might resort to something worse as a coping mechanism.
