- - The ED Voice (https://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/chicks-control/120388-ed-voice.html)

Nightengaleshane- My appologies. Clearly i misunderstood.:hug:

I had it since I was 13, and now its just a part of my personality.
Which is sad.

I have other issues like depression to worry about, the ED seems to have just blended into me and I don't even think its abnormal anymore. Sick but it is true.

Emily- I agree 100% with you. My ED is me. Seriously I don't know who I would be without it. Actually, I would probably be normal and never count calories but I enjoy counting calories.

Sometimes I listen to the 'voice' and don't drown it out. After listening to it, I lose weight and relapse.

No matter what I think it might be years before I am ED free. I dont understand how celebrities are anorexic and bulimic for a period of months and then 'ok' Your never ok...

Hehe, No worries. I just don't want to give off the wrong message! :hug:

Actually, here's a hug for all you girls... :hug: It's a long, hard process to deal with eating disorders, and I'm not 100% sold that the battle ever totally ends (As in, you can live without an eating disorder, but every so often, the "ED voice" always seems to come back to visit). I think it's really important that we all support eachother.

NightengaleShane i understood your message. It's not like the messages in the poem were your opinions, it's what the ED voice makes you think when it takes over you :hug:

P.s you should be a poet

I think it's very rare to EVER be completely ED free. Even if you're not practicing ED behavior, you still have the ED minset.

However, I do have a very good friend of mine who was anorexic in middle school and 9th grade, got professional help, and now seems to not have ED habits. She's pretty into eating healthy and working out, but she's not a total freak about food, not a calorie counter, and doesn't work out excessively... she just has some really healthy habits and a very positive self image.

I just wonder how she did it and I admire her for getting over her ED as much as she has, because I'm nowhere near there. I know I have a f'ed up view on food and my body... I probably always will. I just try to counteract the "ED voice" with logic.
