Does anyone ever wonder what's the point? When no-one is interested in anything about you.....not now necessarily, but when you didn't have the eating disorder, or didn't have the negative thoughts, or the warped images of oneself? It's almost as if, anything that was ever me, didn't ever exist.....or stopped existing after I made up some kind of pretence about who I really am or who I really was. It's as if this thing has taken over me that makes everything out to be so perfect, like nothing has gone wrong or could go wrong with me. Lol, I don't think I even know who I am anymore.

I know how you feel. I feel like the only time people listen much to what I have to say is during a counselling session or when my parents are asking me about food. Do they really wonder what I did today, or saw, or thought, or are they just thinking about me and how much I ate, kept down, exercised off...

What do you wish people would ask you? What would you tell them?

I know what you mean. I don't really think I want to be asked anything in particular, I think just to be acknowledged sometimes by the people I spend time with would be nice. I think sometimes when you have an ed, it can become you and take away anything that was you maybe?! If that makes sense.

i wish the same. i wish my parents would just ask me how i was, if only it was one day a year. that wud do.

i have friends and a teacher at school checking up on me, but its not the same as ur own flesh and blood actually caring about you, is it?

I know what you mean about changing who you are as a person. I have changed so much over the last few months and friends have told me I'm 'just not the same anymore' its like part of you stops living while the ED does, if that makes any sense.

the ED takes u over. usually, therapists approach the patient with " is that you talking or the ED?"
