You have described my daughter to a T when she had anorexia. The only exceptions are (1) no family history of EDs and (2) no body dismorphia (she could always see that she was too thin, but that didn't stop her from being afraid to eat). I love so much hearing these thoughts from a psychologist - wish I could take you back in time to be on the treatment team for my D in 1999. Some of her "emotional anorexia" persists to this day, in that she doesn't like to be touched, although I am happy to say that now there are wonderful warm feelings and sentiments expressed between us.

Thank you! I understand myself better now. I have recently been confused about this whole process for me (the development of the disorder and the recovery process). So many answers to my questions are explained here. I don't feel like a complete "crazy." I "make sense" given what you write here. Thank you! Wow! Thank you! I understand myself better now.
