Yeah, when your mood is that low it's going to be tricky to feel motivated about eating disorder recovery! What treatment are they offering with regards to your mood?
If the only reason to recover is not upset other people, it's understandable to feel annoyed at the idea of recovery for someone else's benefit. Maybe your partner could help you work on a slightly more extensive list. I hope that with help you'd be able to find some reasons that are for you as well. I've put my list below, maybe some will give you something to think about. ETA: turns out I did my list the opposite way round, so these are pros of recovery!
- better skin
- better hair
- more energy
- to enjoy food again
- better social life (not avoiding food-based things)
- to not be a hypocrite when advising other people
- not feeling crap, physically and mentally
- to be free

I hope that the increased anti-depressant helps, but I know that could take a little while to kick in.
It's not great advice, but maybe a motivation for eating could be to keep the ED practitioner off your case!!
Yeah, some of them are more long-term reasons I guess. I'm glad you're going to try and come up with some things.
Hang on in there, things can and will get better and when they do, you'll need a functioning healthy body in order to enjoy it!

Well done for trying to follow the meal plan and I'm glad you're trying to avoid restricting- remember that the best way to avoid binging is to eat regularly!
How are you feeling?

Do you want to talk about this contamination that you're worried about? Would a member of trying the food first or something help to alleviate those concerns?

Have you told your doctors about your thoughts about evil and aliens? It sounds like something that they might be able to help with.
You mentioned being at home, have you been discharged?

Sorry it's been a while. How are you getting on? I hope the treatment for the psychotic episode has been helpful.

I'm glad you're feeling a lot better, that's brilliant to hear :)
By the sounds of things you did need to gain some weight though?

I'm so pleased to hear that! Are you back home now?
Meal planning sounds wise, and remember that once you are regularly eating enough your body will tone down the "hooray, the famine is over" routine and you won't want to eat quite so much. I'm glad that there's going to be regular check-ins with professionals to help you keep on track.
