Unclassified Eating Disorder It all started when I was 15 years old and was sexually assaulted by a friends relative. When I told her, she called me a liar, and she purposely lost touch with me on account of him. I didn't know who to turn to. So, instead of telling my family, who at the time didn't care for me the way I thought they should, I became depressed and started to isolate myself from everyone. I thought because of what happened to me was my fault, I also became a cutter to ease my pain. When that didn't work, I would either go days without eating or I would eat and purposely or unpurposely vomit. I began seeing a therapist. The therapist told me that my eating disorder was unclassified, meaning it was not bulimia nor anorexia but between the two. Since then, I still have days when I don't eat, or if I do eat, my body automatically vomits. I am very careful of what I eat. people say that I am tiny, but tiny to them is overweight and big to me. |
