I became vegetarian at 16, before the onset of my ED. I do think the two are slightly linked though. However, after recovering I do not intend to start eating meat.

At what point will you decide you're ill enough? You might weigh very little but not feel sick, and so decide not to recover, or you might be tricked by the disorder into thinking you don't deserve...

That is very possible... I have been very irritable this week as well, I'm maybe picking on little things like her eating so I don't have to think about my own stuff.

How can I recover with her around?!

This is seriously driving me insane. My mother has always had issues with food (I think a lot of mine stemmed from her) - she eats a set meal for each day of the week, tiny portions, and uses that...

Wow. That is so unlucky.

My advice would be to get on your GP's back about pushing the appointment forward. Or give the clinic a ring yourself and explain what happened. You shouldn't have to wait...

Whilst I can see he cares for you, be careful about letting him set targets: you should aim to want to recover for yourself, not because he's telling you what to do.

I don't know, maybe that's a...

Maybe the weight you gained was water weight. But that aside, could you try not to weigh yourself each day? It might help to ease the pressure you're feeling and silence the ED thoughts. You don't...

Quick tip: ask to be weighed before the assessment starts. I find I get more stressed waiting around for it to happen.

Good luck!

I find them very triggering. I look back and see how much I've eaten and it always feels like a lot, and then when I have to show my GP I feel they won't take me seriously because I eat so much.

I know how you feel. It's a difficult time of year.

But please try and keep in mind that's it's only for a few days. You deserve to have fun, relax, and eat.
