Struggling
I go back and forth between bingeing and purging and restricting. I had a couple years of fairly solid recovery and was eating pretty normally for the most part. The past several weeks I have been struggling again, first with bingeing and purging and now with restricting. My issue is that I am only moderately restricting, so I'm getting enough food to not feel the immediate physical consequences of not eating, but it is not a healthy amount of calories. I am trying to get back on track, but I am not as motivated this time to increase my calories because I don't feel very impacted by restricting. I'm also having urges to lower my calories even more, so I've kind of stayed in a balance of calories that are not healthy and I'm just trying to maintain that range.
How can I help myself to increase my intake, or at the very least not decrease it even more?
