Hello. I have never been diagnosed with an ED. But I worry about my eating habits sometimes. I have a favourite food and while that food is my favourite I don't really eat anything else. It cycles from bread to pasta to potato. I eat one of these for maybe one or two months before I switch to another.
I also eat one (very large) meal per day.
I have started going home at lunch time (when my flatmates are out) so they don't see me cooking the same thing everyday and so they don't see how much I eat.I don't cook for others, I don't really have any notion of serving sizes but when I cook for myself I just eat heaps. I don't make myself sick or anything, but I do feel pretty sick sometimes.
I have a lot of other problems.
Do you think it is worth me bringing it up, or will I be ok?
I have lived like this for maybe 5 or 6 years now.
I recently turned vegetarian too (which wasn't hard at all since meat isn't one of the three favoured food types)
But now I get really strong mental pictures of dead animals when I see people eating meat. It actually makes me feel really sick.I don't like eating around people either
feel really self conscious.
