I’m going through trying to not compare myself to others in recovery. I want to see my bigger appetite as an aspect that adds to my authenticity. This is such a challenge but it’s good for me to do so I can overcome this. My triggers come from perceiving others in a competitive ED brain so I need to remember that my goal is to see my appetite as something that makes me different and unique. Why do I feel like I need to fit in to eat less or no more than someone else, when I value standing out and being unique? I don’t compare myself to others. I want to focus on me and believe that my body and appetite differences make me more authentic. I want to feel less like I’m trying to stay skinny and fit into an image influenced by society and more like Annika, who fits into her own image; a healthy brain who lives for more than just to eat and exercise.
In terms of medication I totally agree with you! I was always against it and didn‘t want to take any because I believed there is no medication against Anorexia. Which is true BUT there is medication for depression and anxiety and they are related in the brain with the eating disorder. And since I started taking medication my recovery Kick-startet!!! Not because all thougths were gone, I just could handle them so much better and seperate them from my „healthy side“. I felt so much better because I was less anxious and depressed, I am most of the time in a good mood and determined to act against Anorexia which I do and feels no more „wrong“ in my brain. I am so glad making this step ☺️
