I’m pro- recovery, but I feel too many people without Eating disorders don’t realize how traumatic treatment is. y’all just shame us for an illness and call us crazy.

I’m not saying I didn’t have a serious problem or that people with EDs aren’t sick, but mentally treatment and weight restoration is a lot. You can medically stabilize and maintain for years.

Forcing someone to weight restore + overshoot is not always in the best interest of someone’s mental heath. Especially when nobody ever wants to ask why someone feels the need to do this?

Some folks are just not mentally ready for recovery or intensive treatment, others’ discomfort around this illness shouldn’t come before what someone is mentally and emotionally prepared for. You need to meet people where they are.

It’s not as simple as eating and you’re cured which so many idiots think.

#im still so mad and wish I was listened to #not forcing Somone to gain 40 lbs in a month #I have never had such low self worth or poor mental heath #tw ed rant #tw ed not ed sheeren #I was fine with gaining a bit and maintaining #but all my worth was in my weight #im not even gonna get into the amount of Ana folks who unalive themselves post treatment #i can’t seem to stop eating now either bc I was over fed so much #parents need to leave their adult children alone #i
