It’s the behaviors. It’s the mindset. It’s that feeling of being torn between disorder and recovery.

He gets that.

When he went to a group with me the other night, he said that one woman in particular didn’t seem like she was doing well. She’s a healthy weight, she looks relatively healthy, but he still knew, by the way she carried herself and spoke about the disorder, that she wasn’t doing well.

Most people think that if you’re a healthy weight, it’s not really much of a concern.

But it is.

Purging is never okay. Skipping meals is never okay. Harming yourself intentionally is never okay.

He reminds me of that every day.
