I've had problems with eating since i was 12. Worst was when i was about 19 and would only drink black coffee, water and eat once a day - salad with fat free dressing and wafer thin ham. Never had professional help - and never discussed 'eating disorder' openly, even with my mum who would beg me to eat and did a great job of gently pushing me to take more calroies each day until i was on releatively normal diet. Lost about a stone last year through stress reducing my appetite and have just got up to what i consider to be my normal weight. Here comes the voice in my head that whispers 'you don't really need to eat that'- thats how it starts and i eat less and get more and more contriolling around food.
Does anyone ever get cured from this? Does every woman experience this?
