Every single word in this post has thoroughly touched me.

My ED kept telling me all the time to stop socializing, because, in case of that, i would break his rules that made me "safe" and "healthy" -

For a long time i struggled with what i should order, no sugar, no carbs, no fruits, no pastries... the list goes on, it's a box of NOs only.

With time it made people around me don't want to go out with me again as i became the one who screw the event - but my ED kept saying, "You are right, we are good friends, we are healthy" - Big Liar. Real friends never want to kill theirs.

Now i am trying hard to shut down this voice - giving myself the chance to enjoy food as it is - as i was in the past - no rules, no time restriction, no more labeling. I keep reminding myself that I deserve a real life - a clear mind - a free soul who is not dictated by anything.
