Why. Just. Why
 

So I'm a member of an ED support group on fb.
Strictly support, absolutely NO pro stuff or numbers or anything like that.
But some possible troll has just posted a ton of posts with pictures of her at a low weight and posting highest weight and lowest weight and all the stuff that isn't allowed but hadn't been taken down yet.
I have blocked her now but it's too late. I've seen too much and it's really ****ed me over and I'm crying and i never want to eat again but with my blood test results from last week being not so good i can't not eat because i could get really ill and i don't want that.
The reason i joined the group in the first place is for help with trying to recover while I'm waiting for ED therapy. And its been great for that until this person started posting all this ****.
I'm just really upset.

Online ED recovery spaces can be really tricky. I’m so sorry that happened and you saw it before it was removed. I think I’ve mentioned it before but I follow some accounts on Instagram, they’re of people who’ve recovered (into such diverse bodies), as well as HAES aligned professionals. If it’s ok to recommend, see if you can find dietitiananna as a starting point, I love her posts.

With what’s just happened, it’s horrible and basically impossible not to compare, but you know full well you could have died a few weeks ago. Weight does not have anything to do with how unwell you are.

Please try to be gentle with yourself, feed yourself, do what you need to do to stay well and ready to step back into the life that is waiting for you. You are so so so much more than a number on a shitty scale.

(If it helps, I am having to repeat this all to myself a lot too, currently)

Thank you so much Lio
That really helps
I'll have a look on Instagram. It would be helpful i think

That's true. And i really don't want to go back to being that unwell again. It was the worst I've ever felt.
They had a go at me in ward round about it.

Thank you.
Tbh the first thing i wanted to do was get on the scale. But i didn't. Because i really doubt that would help the situation

Some people on the group did a search and it turns out it is a troll trying to trigger people.
Why are some people so disgusting??
Makes me sad
