I'm very strict and rigid about food and I have an amount of calories I'm "allowed" but that amount is way more than most anorexics. Also I exercise (also very rigid) but not excessive. I have rules about cleaning and meet the criteria of obsessive compulsive personality disorder to a T. But the thing is even though I eat a "normal" amount of "normal" food and don't excessively exercise, I'm starved. I'm about many pounds underweight, starving all the time, depressed, and miserable. I feel like all my body wants is enormous amounts of food and sleep. Which makes sense because I have been starving and exhausting it for a long time.
But since I'm already eating a lot calories when I'm "restricting" and losing weight it scares me to think how much my body would eat if I allowed myself to eat "enough". I would feel out of control and lazy and glutinous. I feel stuck but I'm miserable. This is ruining my life and literally killing me physically and mentally.
Has anybody dealt with anything like this?


Yes, we have a lot in common. xo
