my bestfriend is on some hardcore weight loss mission whilst my anorexia decides to return, my boyfriend has the same amount of use as a mouldy orange, i am disgusting aesthetically, i look like mutton dressed as lamb everytime i get dressed, my mental health feels like it's crumbling worse than ever and i can't stop it.

Can you call B-eat? They may be able to put you in touch with a phone counsellor? Sad

Amy, please get some help and support for managing your eating disorder and self pperception. It's you who needs to manage it and make healthy choices, no one else can do it for you.

Surround yourself with positive messages about healthy weight, self acceptance, healthy eating, other aspects of life you enjoy, interests and hobbies and moderate amounts of enjoyable exercise. (I find tumblr is good for this but be sure to unfollow any which start you thinking about being 'disgusting' or letting the ed take control.

Ignore everything your friend says about weight loss. Ask if she can not mention food around you, or just see a lot less of her.

How are you doing with getting 3 snacks and 3 meals a day?

Well done for osting and asking for help. Keep finding help.
